Tucked into the rolling hills of the breathtaking Ancona Valley, Brankeet is a distinguished 23-acre estate offering privacy, sophistication, and the ideal blend of lifestyle and location. Just two hours from Melbourne, 25 minutes from Mansfield, minutes from the Bonnie Doon boat ramps, and within easy reach of Mt Buller, this exceptional holding delivers the best of both worlds - a luxurious rural retreat with metropolitan accessibility.
Offered on a walk-in/walk-out basis, including stylish country furnishings and comprehensive farm equipment, Brankeet invites you to simply arrive, exhale, and enjoy.
A grand arrival down a 350-metre tree-lined driveway framed by mature Canadian Maples creates a memorable entrance. This leads to the heart of the property - a fully fenced, 1.5-acre home paddock with sweeping lawns and professionally designed gardens. At its centre stands a warm and inviting four-bedroom country residence, perfectly positioned to capture the views and embrace its natural surroundings.
The elevated country home has been thoughtfully renovated to blend timeless style with modern luxuries. A generous open-plan living zone is anchored by engineered oak floors and floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows, flooding the interiors with natural light and framing uninterrupted views across the property.
The kitchen is a true centrepiece - custom cabinetry, porcelain benches, an Ilve 900mm oven with gas cooktop, integrated appliances, and a temperature-controlled wine and beverage fridge make entertaining effortless. A Euro wood-burning fireplace adds comfort and charm during the cooler months.
Four spacious bedrooms are beautifully appointed, offering garden or valley vistas, while two bathrooms and a contemporary laundry complete the picture of functional elegance. Outdoors, a vine-draped verandah and purpose-built fire pit create an idyllic setting for long lunches, evening gatherings, and serene mornings.
A generous ¾-acre utility zone houses a substantial 100sqm barn - ideal for storage, hobbies, or farming use. Two dams, including one spring-fed and direct frontage to the tranquil Brankeet Creek ensure an abundant water supply.
For those with a passion for sustainability and self-sufficiency, the estate boasts:
- A high-quality potable water bore
- 30,000-litre house tank + 30,000-litre irrigation tank + additional 28,500-litre tank at the barn
