10 Fern Road, Little Hampton, Vic 3458 - More Details
$1,150,000 - $1,250,000
There is something about this Little Hampton property that immediately shifts your pace. The gravel driveway, fruit trees in the orchards, and weatherboard farmhouse framed by established gardens create a sense of calm, grounded and welcome separation from the noise of everyday life. Set within a landscape known for its rich soil, natural water and year-round greenery, the property carries a quiet sense of abundance that is felt as much as it is seen.
Set on approximately five acres of established gardens and conveniently located between Daylesford and Trentham, this three-bedroom home has the ease and character of a countryside retreat, where muddy boots sit by the fire, children disappear outdoors for hours, and long lunches drift effortlessly into the evening. Equally suited as a permanent residence, weekend escape or Airbnb, the property offers a dream hobby farm lifestyle, offering room for animals and self-sufficient living.
Inside, soaring ceilings and whitewashed interiors create a relaxed farmhouse atmosphere, while the open-plan living area centres around a crackling Ned Kelly wood fire. A second living space, which can also serve as a dining room, sits alongside a downstairs bedroom with a walk-in robe and a country-style bathroom featuring a white enamel bath. The kitchen, complete with a new wall oven, overlooks the gardens, with views extending across the dam to the forest beyond, and connects seamlessly to the verandah, an inviting spot for morning coffee or a glass of wine as the afternoon light filters through the trees.
Upstairs, loft-style bedrooms and a charming bunk room bring a distinctly European cottage character, while outside the grounds unfold into productive orchards bearing pears, multiple varieties of apples, stone fruit and more, alongside a productive vegetable garden plot, olive trees, open lawn areas and a delightful red-doored chook house that feels lifted from the pages of a storybook.
With a spring-fed bore, dam, solar power, ample water storage, shedding, a double garage and direct access to walking trails through the Wombat Forest quite literally at your doorstep, the property balances beauty with practicality, privacy and self-sufficiency.
Properties in Little Hampton are tightly held for good reason, and opportunities to secure five acres in this sought-after location are increasingly rare. Renowned for its privacy, fertile land and natural water systems, it remains one of the region’s most quietly prized lifestyle settings. Positioned within easy reach of Trentham, Daylesford and Kyneton, this is the kind of place people discover while searching for a different pace of life and never want to leave.
