Find Your Quiet Place - An Acreage Retreat Five Minutes from the heart of Leongatha
Every once in a while, a property comes along that simply feels right - a home that welcomes you with space, warmth, and a sense of possibility. ‘Minbalup’ is that kind of place.
Tucked away on approximately 4.5 acres of gently rolling land, and just a five-minute drive from the bustling township of Leongatha, this much-loved property offers the rare balance of complete privacy without isolation. Here, you can live close to everything you need... but feel a world away.
From the moment you arrive, the character of this home is unmistakable. A palm-lined driveway and hand-built Castlemaine stone pillars create a grand, welcoming first impression. Beyond them, a thoughtfully crafted home, designed to sit in harmony with the land, opens its arms to you.
A Home Built for Real Life and Real Moments
Inside, spaces unfold naturally - made for family, for friends, for quiet Sunday mornings and celebrations alike.
- The open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area invites the outside in, with broad windows framing views of green paddocks and open skies.
- A country-style kitchen, crafted from warm Blackwood timber with stone benchtops and electric cooking, is the heart of the home - a place where meals and memories will be made.
- Step outside to the covered entertaining area, made for long lunches that stretch into the afternoon or simply a quiet coffee as the sun sets.
- Three generous bedrooms, plus a flexible study (or fourth bedroom), offer plenty of space for a growing family or weekend visitors.
- The master bedroom is a true retreat, complete with a walk-in robe and ensuite, while polished timber floors throughout the living spaces add timeless character.
Space to Breathe, Space to Dream
Beyond the home, the land unfolds - ready for whatever dreams you might bring with you.
✅ Reverse-cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort
✅ Family bathroom with separate bath and shower
✅ NBN connectivity for work-from-home ease
✅ Paddocks ready for horses, pets or your hobby farm ambitions
✅ A thriving greenhouse, established fruit trees and a chook run - ideal for those dreaming of a more self-sufficient lifestyle
✅ A four-car carport and secure garage, providing room for vehicles, tools and projects
✅ Solar panels and a large water tank, designed to keep living costs low
✅ A dam with water lilies, complete with jetty and bridge - a perfect spot to stop, breathe, and just be
The Best of Both Worlds
At 'Minbalup', you are never far from what matters.
The Leongatha township is just five minutes away - offering cafés, supermarkets, healthcare, schools, sporting clubs, and community life. A short drive further and you are at the beaches of Inverloch or the walking trails of the Great Southern Rail Trail.
Here, the rhythm of country life meets the convenience of town living without having to choose between the two.
Your Next Chapter Starts Here
If you have been waiting for a place where you can slow down without stepping back... where weekends mean home-grown produce, paddocks under wide blue skies, and gatherings under the verandah... then this is your opportunity.
Properties with this much heart, this much character, and this much potential rarely come along.
Come and see for yourself.
