Prestigious Toolleen District, Central Victoria – 155 Ac / 63 Ha
This soulful mud brick homestead is set on 155 acres of highly sought-after Toolleen country, just 90 minutes from Melbourne Airport, and within easy reach of Bendigo and Heathcote's renowned wine region. This exceptional lifestyle property blends rural charm, income-generating potential, and modern comfort in one of Central Victoria's most versatile farming districts.The Toolleen area is renowned for its rich agricultural heritage, long supporting wool production, livestock breeding, cropping, olives, and vineyards. This property continues that legacy, with fertile self-mulching Myola soils, gently undulating terrain for natural drainage and catchment, and outstanding water security. A solar-powered, unmetered bore delivers a near-endless supply of water, plumbed directly to every paddock and supported by four dams.
An established olive grove of approximately 60 trees, productive fruit trees, and fully fenced paddocks make the property ideal for hobby farming, sustainable living, or running a diverse rural enterprise.

The main residence is a handcrafted mud brick masterpiece, designed with passive solar principles to ensure year-round comfort and low energy costs. Featuring five spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, a study, a large attic, and open-plan living with a Cheminees Philippe wood heater at its heart, the home is both striking and practical. The large, country-style kitchen is a highlight, offering modern (bottled) gas cooking facilities alongside a charming Stanley combustion wood fire stove and oven-perfect for hearty meals and gatherings with family and friends. Dormer windows, a dramatic gable roof, wide verandahs, and quality solar systems complete this warm and inviting retreat.
