Why not buy yourself a patch of paradise at Newmerella in the Snowy River countryside of East Gippsland? This farm has the best of both worlds, being almost right on the coast and yet only a short drive and youâre in the Victorian High Country. At nearly eleven acres in size, the farm has fabulous rural views across the Snowy River flats across to the rural hub of Orbost, East Gippsland, Victoria.
This farm may just be the perfect weekender, with two entrances at the front of the property, one opening to a livestock paddock and the other to a long driveway lined with fruit trees. There is a large shed, approximately 6 x 9 metres in size, with power connected and a concrete floor. The shed has a large open area, a kitchen, freestanding slow combustion wood heater and storage room. A large 22500 litre (approx.) water tank sits alongside, collecting rainwater from the roof. The level area of land would be an excellent spot to build your dream home, being flat and north facing and views as far as the eye can see. The land then drops away to a small dam and a tree lined gully with a seasonal creek running through.
The farm is a mere ten kilometres from the township of Orbost via excellent sealed roads along the Princes Hwy. Orbost is perfect for all your shopping and medical needs. Itâs only around twelve kilometres to the Corringle Slips Foreshore Reserve on the lower Snowy River Estuary. Here you can launch the boat into the estuary system via the historical hundred-year-old boat ramp, chase the bream that the Snowy is famous for, admire the birdlife and even wander up to the Marlo Hotel for a great pub meal. Corringle Slips also has plenty of tracks across the sand dunes to the mighty Southern Ocean, perfect for catching a wave or try some surf fishing and catch a Salmon or even the elusive Gummy Shark.
Newmerella is a small community with a primary school, service station with post office and takeaway food and a school bus which travels to the Orbost Secondary College. There is the Newmerella Recreational Reserve and Show Grounds where they hold the annual Orbost Agricultural Show and equestrian events. Itâs only a forty-minute drive to the tourist town of Lakes Entrance and around one hoursâ drive to Bairnsdale, the industry and business centre of East Gippsland. It is here the V/Line Bus from Orbost connects to the V/line train service to Melbourne.
Make your move to the country. Bring a swag for the weekends while you plan your dream home, with views that go on forever. Run some horses or even a few cattle to keep the grass down and help pay the rates. Alternatively, just relax and take in the views form your own piece of paradise.
