About Property

Escape to a unique and relaxing country getaway in Smythes Creek, Victoria, where you can experience a true 1970s rustic retreat. Nestled on 2.5 peaceful acres surrounded by established trees and a native garden, this one-of-a-kind home embraces the original vision of its builder, offering a comfortable and character-filled sanctuary for families and groups.

The home features a practical layout with 3 bedrooms, 3 beds, and 1 bathroom, comfortably accommodating up to 6 guests. The three good-sized bedrooms provide ample space, with the queen bedroom featuring a private ensuite. Guests will find a spacious formal lounge complete with a library nook and a collection of old-time books, as well as a main living area warmed by a cozy wood fire heater.

Dining and preparation are a breeze in the fully equipped kitchen, which boasts two wall ovens, a microwave, and all necessary tea and coffee amenities.
