Every once and a while we are entrusted to put a property to market which is so exceptional that it is difficult for us to let it go. 240 Cleland Gully Road is just such a property, and we really recommend that any party interested in an inspirational rural retreat have a look at this one. Situated on four acres of sprawling bushland running along a spring fed, willow-lined creek which hides the occasional wild trout, this 1890 home has been renovated with attention to detail and quality like no other that we have seen in recent history. Beautiful timberwork, wonderful light filled rooms, triple insulated wine cellar and a top end Farquhar Kitchen make this home one to treasure. The two bedrooms and one bathroom of the main home are complemented by a quality independent studio/guest house with a modern bathroom and kitchen provision shares extraordinary views over the cottage gardens surrounding the home. A wonderful lifestyle property, and one which you could call home.
