Set on just over 6.5 acres on the edge of the Otway Ranges, this property epitomises country living and makes the most of its unique position.

This 20-year-old Western Red Cedar home features an uncomplicated and highly functional design. The ground floor primarily features the open plan living, dining and kitchen area.
