The location is everything for the person who wants it.
This is an amazing holiday escape or retirement opportunity with views across rolling green hills and coastal sea views to Port Fairy lighthouse: far from the city noise but only five minutes drive to the nearest supermarket.
Situated just 10 minutes from Warrnambool City Centre, Illowa road was once part of the famous Great Ocean Road, Princes Highway, but is now a quiet sealed road with only occasional local farm traffic.
This property of just over one acre, nestled between two grazing properties, has been lovingly developed with an ornamental dam, filled from a bore into a created waterfall and artificial creek that runs through a planted semi-forest area.
The serenity and rarity of the location alone is worth the price, but there is a uniquely designed energy-efficient house with two bedrooms, upstairs sitting room, a balcony overlooking surrounding rural landscapes. An attached sunroom links the main house to an independent visitor area with a separate bedroom, shower, toilet and large kitchen/laundry area..... through to the double car garage.
A composite decking skirts the house and sunroom on the west. All glass areas are protected with electric roller shutters that can be lowered as required for sun, wind, or security.
On the other end of the property is a large 10 x 6 meter workshop - incorporating a separate fully insulated office/recording studio.
There is also a 6 x 3 machinery store shed, with an attached kennel, and another versatile birdcage/poultry pen that can be used for multiple purposes.
The property is currently off-grid solar and wind powered, with a 1000AH battery bank, but has been designed so that grid power can be optionally added. (For a prospective buyer, grid connection could be negotiated as part of the settlement).
The current owners are a retired couple with no urgent intention of vacating this well-loved property, but for the right person and the right price, this couple could be incentivised to consider an earlier-than-planned transition.
