1030 Surf Coast Highway

There are very few places where land, history and location align with such quiet authority. Stretton Park unfolds as a deeply established rural estate of approximately 39.7 hectares (98 acres), positioned within a shoreline's breath of the Surf Coast yet firmly grounded in productive country tradition. Established in 1865, the property carries a pastoral legacy rarely retained at this scale, once forming part of an 11,000 acre wool enterprise extending from Mount Duneed to Torquay and Barwon Heads. The land is open, balanced and highly functional, shaped by decades of careful stewardship. Fertile paddocks are framed by shelter belts and established trees, supporting ongoing grazing and rural pursuits. Clearview Dam sits quietly within the landscape, providing dependable water security while reflecting the changing sky, complemented by an additional spring fed dam that has never been known to run dry. Historic cattle yards, recognised among the finest in the district and the original woolshed reinforce the property's enduring agricultural capability. At the heart of the estate stands the heritage three bedroom farmhouse, originally built as the station manager's residence and later extended with care to blend Federation character with everyday comfort. Heated concrete floors, a slow combustion wood stove, generous living spaces, feature brick walls and bay windows create interiors that feel warm, grounded and inviting. An updated country kitchen and heritage style bathrooms complete a home designed for togetherness, a place to gather, unwind and reconnect at the close of each day. Surrounding gardens have long supported a healthy, seasonal lifestyle, producing fresh fruit and vegetables, reinforcing a life lived in unison with the land. A modest studio with independent amenities sits discreetly within the grounds, adding flexibility without disrupting the homestead's integrity. Mature Peppercorn trees frame a timeless outlook from the homestead toward the dam, anchoring the setting in calm and permanence. Despite its sense of space and privacy, Stretton Park enjoys immediate access to Torquay, Anglesea and Geelong, delivering a rare balance between rural scale and coastal convenience. The option to acquire an additional five acres further enhances flexibility (STCA). An estate defined by history, capability and lasting value.
