Under Contract

Charming Farm Escape - Mountains Views, Water, Lifestyle and a Self-sufficient future

‘The Barn’ at Blue Wren Ridge

 

Breathtaking views. Funky, rustic barn- vibe home with modern flair.

Proximity to river, lake, trails, and ski-fields.

4 bedrooms, 4+ cars, 30+ hectares.

Dreaming of starting an equestrian property, a boutique farming enterprise, or a glamping set-up (STCA)? Concerned about the world’s direction and seeking a property with permanent water, endless firewood, multiple access points, and maybe even some gold underfoot?

Or perhaps you’re simply looking for a private, peaceful lifestyle in a beautiful setting.

The standout feature is the unobstructed views of Mount Buffalo, with its ever-changing canvas of colours and topped with a smattering of winter snow, visible from most of the property.

With fertile land and ample rainfall, Blue Wren Ridge borders a forest area with trails perfect for hiking, biking, horse riding, or licensed off-road dirt biking. It is private, yet only nine kilometres from Myrtleford. Less than an hour to Wodonga, with Wangaratta even closer.

A range of ski-fields are less than two hours away, and the property is less than 20 kilometres from Lake Buffalo, offering endless opportunities for boating, watersports, swimming, and fishing.

The property comes with an unmetered 6.5 megalitre water licence from a creek that has never run dry in living memory—a reliable water source where trout can also be seen and caught. It is less than a kilometre from the Buffalo River. There are also natural springs on the property.

If you don’t wish to farm yourself but want to live with stunning views in the beautiful Buffalo River Valley, there is plenty of scope to lease the land on a semi-permanent or weekly agistment basis—it’s always in demand.
