Set in the tightly held surrounds of Waranga Shores, this exceptional 5-acre property on Darby Road offers an enviable combination of space, privacy, water access and relaxed country living. With direct access to the Basin, sweeping water views and a beautifully renovated three-bedroom home, this is a property that invites you to slow down, breathe a little deeper and embrace a lifestyle where weekends can be spent on the water, evenings around the fire and mornings enjoying the view.

The home itself has been thoughtfully updated and is perfectly positioned to take advantage of its surroundings. At the heart of the home is the renovated kitchen, complete with breakfast bar and informal dining area, flowing seamlessly into the family living space. Large windows frame the outlook, ensuring the beautiful setting remains part of everyday life.

A wood heater provides warmth and atmosphere through the cooler months, while a reverse-cycle split system provides year-round comfort. A solar panel system assists in electricity offset.

Perhaps the real hero of the home is the expansive 16m x 8m entertaining deck. Directly accessible from the living area, this substantial outdoor space is made for entertaining, relaxing and simply taking in the spectacular surroundings. Whether it is morning coffee as the day begins, afternoon drinks overlooking the water or a gathering with family and friends, this is a space you will find yourself enjoying all year round.

Each of the three bedrooms features built-in robes and ceiling fans, while the master bedroom enjoys its own split-system air conditioning and sensational water views. Imagine waking up each morning and being greeted by that outlook. The fully renovated bathroom continues the home's quality, offering a separate bath and shower.

For those who need serious shedding, the property delivers in a big way! The impressive 12m x 11m, fully concreted and powered four-car shed provides an abundance of space for vehicles, boats, recreational equipment, a workshop or the ultimate man cave. There is plenty of room to pursue your hobbies, store the toys and make the most of everything this unique location has to offer.

Outside, the lifestyle continues. With direct access to Waranga Basin, you can launch the jet ski or tinnie from your own private bank and be out enjoying the water whenever the mood takes you! Walks around the basin, bike rides, boating, fishing and lazy afternoons by the water are all right on your doorstep. There are also established fire pit areas (both front and rear) creating the perfect setting for entertaining long into the evening.

The property is well equipped for comfortable country living with two substantial 45,000-litre water tanks and a fully enclosed yard providing a secure space for children and pets.

And while the setting feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, convenience is never far away, with both Rushworth and Tatura approximately 12 minutes from home and Shepparton under 30 minutes.

If you've been searching for more than just a house, but a place with room to breathe, space to enjoy and a genuine connection to the water — this is Waranga Shores living at its best.
