If you wanted to conjure up the perfect property for a tree change or a family retreat in the country, surely this would be it: a picturesque ten hectares (25 acres) in the heart of wine country at the foot of the Brokenback Range. Wide open spaces, spectacular views, and a beautifully developed property with established guest accommodation to provide an incomethere is a lot to love here.
Whether you're contemplating a lifestyle change or searching for a private sanctuary away from the stress of city life, the Glen Eden estate near the village of Broke offers a multitude of options. You could capitalise on the stunning sunsets and beautiful location to establish a wedding or events venue (subject to council approval); or continue to use the existing cottages for short- term accommodation; or simply relax and enjoy a magnificent weekender with the luxury to accommodate all your friends and family.
The current owners bought the property at the start of the Covid pandemic so accommodating guests was not a consideration at first. Instead, they used the time productively by transforming the estate into a retreat centreespecially designed to host corporate and wellness retreats, family holidays, girls' weekends, and groups of all kinds. There are three charming, self-contained cottages: The Log Cabin, Rosebower and Lemonthyme. They each have their own private barbecue and fire pit area, and collectively sleep 17 people.
There is a sparkling inground swimming pool and three picturesque dams on the property, as well as two farm sheds. One of the sheds - The Station - was constructed as a large communal space for guests, with a covered outdoor kitchen area and shower and toilet facilities. It has become the central hub of the property and is perfectly blended into the rural surroundings with use of recycled and local materials used cleverly around the building.
In addition to 'The Station' there is a generous (20mx8m) American Barn - 'The Shed'. Equipped with a fully functioning bathroom and kitchen, office spaces and covered outdoor area, this space offers ample storage for maintenance machinery and could be converted into a usable space for either events, permanent living or manager's quarters (subject to council approval). The shed is also the hub of the satellite and sender for purpose built Wifi network that services the entire property.
Glen Eden is a delightful property with huge potential for weddings, events and retreats, but it would also be a unique and tranquil place to call home. If you think this could be your Next Move, give us a call today.
