Bushland oasis at Shady Creek

Located about 14 kilometres east of Warragul in a wonderful private setting, ‘Melaleuca Park’ is a more than 35-hectare (88-acre) oasis at Shady Creek, far from the madding crowds.

Beautifully tranquil, the peace is evident upon entering the winding drive bordered by stately eucalypts and giant tree ferns, past the established native bush garden to the charming solid-brick home.
It is architect designed and built by the current owners who have created a lovely home filled with warmth, character and comfort.
Bathed in natural light with large windows to bring the outside in, the delightfully welcoming home comprises three spacious bedrooms, the master with full ensuite and walk-in robes.
There is a separate study, dual-living zones and a superb country-style kitchen with every mod con, yet retaining all the rustic charm.
A comfortable outdoor area is perfect for a quiet drink and to take in the serenity of the garden, over the flat where the wallabies come to drink at the billabong and beyond to the preserved bushland.
More than 12 hectares (about 30 acres) of lush pasture with the balance of the property being bushland, ‘Melaleuca Park’ is a naturalists’ and bird-watchers’ paradise, with a 16-hectare flora-and-fauna reserve of protected bush.
With excellent shedding and cattle-handling facilities, the land lends itself to any rural activity and if peace and tranquillity is your thing – so is ‘Melaleuca Park’.
Priced at $685,000.
