Nestled within picturesque rural landscapes, this former winery and restaurant has been reimagined as a unique home where every corner reflects innovation and whimsy. Designed by Richard Naish, the architectural style blends edgy design with rustic charm. Soaring ceilings and exposed timber beams add character, while bifold doors and expansive windows capture stunning sunsets and the surrounding rural scenery.

Commercial kitchen and bar serve the dual purpose of everyday convenience and entertainment, while a roaring fire adds ambience to the open spaces. Sleeping arrangements are a combination of built-in rooms and mobile pods. Although the layout deviates from traditional, architectural plans are available to inspire a potential renovation project or choose to embrace the character of the current setup. The unique space is currently proving profitable as a holiday rental, and there is an option to purchase fully furnished.

The gorgeous property set over 16.62 hectares (approx.) features stables underneath the winery for equestrian enthusiasts. Along with a vineyard, olive trees, chickens, bore water and solar panels, this property offers the quintessential elements for living the good life. The winemaker's cottage along with nearby studio, allows for potential income generation or accommodating guests.

A portion of the land is covenanted native bush and wetlands, the vineyard is tended by a local and other than six horse paddocks, the remaining paddocks are grazed by a neighbour. Subdivision potential for those that may want a smaller land parcel.

Ignore the current rateable value - with their children grown, the owners are ready to move on and pass this amazing property to its next owners. Discover a lifestyle unlike any other, where the possibilities are as expansive as your imagination.
