Eston Grange/1413 Mornington-Flinders Road, Main RidgeVIC

Encircled by fruit farms and vineyards in a prized rural pocket of the peninsula, this 2.5 acre (approx) picturesque parcel with circa 1920s farmhouse is teeming with the romance of yesteryear and lifestyle potential. The gently undulating acres contains rows of fruit and nut trees, from apples and plums to pecans and macadamias, offering a wonderful foundation for wholesome living, along with abundant room for organic veggies, chooks, goats, cows and even a pony or two. Flanked by a wide verandah, the existing two bedroom cottage with study, one bathroom and original kitchen features plenty of old-world charm with high ceilings, leadlight windows and an open fireplace in a slate surround, yet awaits the renovation that could restore it to its former glory. Alternatively, the scope is also there to construct your dream country home (STCA) on this gorgeous green allotment for permanent living or weekend escapes, with beaches, golf courses and wineries nearby, yet just an hour from Melbourne.
