Consider the Prospect

If having everything in what feels like the middle of nowhere is your aim, make a visit to 'Prospect', just 20 minutes from Lakes Entrance.

The property exudes serenity, with views across the hills that go for miles, right up past Mount Nowa Nowa.

At 'Prospect' you're surrounded by natural bush but the farmland and gardens lend themselves to subsistence, while down by the creek feels more like a rainforest, with tree ferns and native wildlife like lyre birds and King Parrots.

The house is nothing quite like you've seen, where the old and the new converge under one roof.

'Prospect' has been owned by the one person since 1973, who built everything on the property included the new section of the home that features bay windows, French doors and timber flooring.

The newest section also includes a large master bedroom with plenty of cupboard space and a spacious ensuite.

The beautiful kitchen has a large bay window, allowing you to see your visitors drive in, with a RalAnn stove made in Bairnsdale, as well as a glass top stove.

The amount of storage space must be seen to be believed, from the sewing room cupboards to the impressive pantry, the spacious laundry and the outside lockable rooms.

The unrenovated section is like a step back in time, with a kitchen, bathroom, sitting room and two bedrooms, which could be used for guest accommodation if you so choose.

Outside there is toilet, a covered trough with goldfish, lockable storerooms and a carport with sink and cupboards.

Critical thinking and careful planning have gone into the 40-tree orchard, the vegetable gardens and the line of citrus trees that double as fire retardants, with a sprinkler system in place. There are also raspberries, blackberries and Chestnut trees.

The orchard features old fashioned varieties of apple, pear, peach, plum and quince, and the back garden has a large Ash tree that even has a place for a swing for the kids.

The two sheds are impressive, the first near the cattle yards features five double doors, two with large external concrete aprons, meaning vehicle access is no problem. A large workbench is concreted in and there is a mezzanine room as well.

The second shed is vast in size and features timber poles from the property, while there are plenty of tanks to ensure water supply, which can also be pumped up from the spring.

Bordered by the Coulquhoun State Forest there are 400 acres in total, including approximately 220 acres of bush.
