3245 Midland Highway, Lima South, Vic 3673

Unforgettable mountain scenery, complete privacy, framed by an exquisite 262.8m of pristine Broken River frontage and lush garden surrounds, this life-changing small acreage has its own category because there's nothing quite like it on the market today as a direct comparison. Take the old and now private Cobb and Co road that runs right through the property to relax and unwind with a beer or glass of wine on your riverfront pub. Wet a line for native fish in the river, enjoy your morning coffee against a picturesque mountain backdrop, tend to the vineyard or clear your mind and take long walks around the grounds.
