Property Description

Positioned on 5.45 hectares just beyond Hanmer Springs, this expansive lifestyle property combines privacy, recreation and entertaining against a backdrop of Mt Isobel and the surrounding alpine ranges.

Constructed in permanent materials in the mid-2000s, the home has been thoughtfully designed to embrace its outdoor setting, with extensive north-facing living and accommodation spaces opening directly to covered outdoor areas and established grounds.
The open-plan kitchen, dining and living zone forms the heart of the home, while a separate lounge provides additional flexibility for families and entertaining. Ducted heating throughout the home ensures year-round comfort.

Accommodation includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms including an ensuite, a dedicated office, separate toilet and full laundry, while an additional office or potential fifth bedroom is positioned off the garage alongside a convenient powder room.
Every room along the northern side of the home has been designed with connection to the outdoors in mind, opening toward covered entertaining areas and landscaped lawns that unfold across multiple levels. Steps lead to an elevated grass terrace, perfectly positioned for gatherings, wedding celebrations, special occasions or simply taking in the surrounding scenery.

The grounds themselves are a standout feature of the property. A full-sized tennis court sits alongside the in-ground swimming pool, while a stream meanders around the court and through to a pond, adding to the sense of tranquillity and retreat-like living.
Positioned beside the home, the separate “man shed” offers exceptional versatility, with large double doors opening from both sides to create an ideal space for entertaining, hobbies, events, additional recreation or relaxed social gatherings.
Well-established shelter belts running north to south provide excellent protection from prevailing winds, helping create a peaceful and usable outdoor environment throughout the seasons. The property is currently serviced by well water supplied from the neighbouring farm, with town water available at the boundary if desired in the future.

Offering exceptional scope to modernise and add further value, the property is perfectly suited to families, extended or blended living arrangements, work-from-home flexibility or potential business opportunities.
Located just over five minutes from Hanmer Springs village, the property offers the scale and freedom of lifestyle living while remaining closely connected to the township’s renowned cafés, thermal pools and alpine attractions.
