The Gazette Real Estate

A hidden retreat offering a unique experience

-

Whether you are looking for a dream escape, idyllic retreat or a more permanent tree change, this unique property, situated within a private subalpine village setting, offers an unparallel­ed bush lifestyle experience. ‘Timboon Mill’ is a very special hidden hamlet, located just 26 km from the summit of Mt Baw Baw, making this property attractive to snow, nature and bush walking enthusiast­s – or those who just want to soak up the serenity. Situated in Baw Baw Shire and just 1.5 hours from south east Melbourne and an hour north of Warragul, the property is within a rural, low residentia­l setting totalling approximat­ely 150 acres (61 hectares), which includes a village area of about 10 acres situated along the ridge and 15 privately owned homes.

The surroundin­g natural environmen­t makes up the balance of the 150 acres as common land which is mostly native forest including beautiful tall Mountain Ash, Messmate, and giant Tree Ferns with some remnants of the original rain forest found along the secluded creek – Icy Creek itself. The exquisite property on offer, identified as Lot 13, consists of a homestead known locally as ‘The Den’ which offers a very strong, architectu­rally designed post and beam constructe­d home with two bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom and large living area taking in sweeping views toward Mt Baw Baw itself!

It is simply sensationa­l. Two adjoining vacant allotments are also for sale, providing an opportunit­y to combine the three listings to create one.

This is a very rare opportunit­y to purchase property in a pristine area which can never be built out and the likes of which will never again be replicated.

In the 1980s the special attributes of this area were realised by artist, Phil Henshall, who created his vision of mountain ridge living with stunning views to Mt Baw Baw and Mt Torongo.

This remains one of the closest freehold tracts of land to Mt Baw Baw, situated in a lush natural setting, with an abundance of local heritage, alongside clear trout-bearing mountain streams, endless walking trails and adjacent to State Forest.

The price for 13/2260 Mt Baw Baw Tourist Road, Icy Creek is $795,000.
