354 Three Chain Road, Boorolite, Vic 3723

Cloudbreak, an exceptional rural holding where spectacular views, a beautifully established home and a genuine working farm come together across more than 150 acres in tightly held Boorolite.

Elevated above the Delatite Valley, the property enjoys an extraordinary panorama across rolling farmland to the surrounding ranges. It is a view that changes constantly with the seasons - from mist settling across the valley in the early morning to golden light across the hills at sunset - and one that has shaped the way the home has been positioned and designed.

Privately positioned to take full advantage of its elevated setting, the north-facing farmhouse draws those views into the kitchen, living areas and main bedroom, while wide Colonial-style return verandahs create a beautiful transition between indoors and out.

Inside, soaring three-metre ceilings, timber floors, decorative archways and an exposed brick open fireplace give the home warmth and character. Generous proportions provide plenty of room for family and guests, with four bedrooms, multiple living and dining spaces and a large country kitchen positioned so even the everyday ritual of standing at the sink comes with an extraordinary outlook.

Outside, the home opens onto an expansive entertaining deck and fully tiled plunge pool, creating an idyllic place to spend long summer afternoons or simply sit back and watch the changing colours across the valley.

Yet Cloudbreak is far more than a beautiful country retreat.

This is a genuine, established working farm, with the infrastructure already in place for its next owner to simply step in and get started. There is no need to spend years establishing paddocks, water or essential farm infrastructure - the hard work has already been done.

The approximately 150-acre holding is divided into ten well-established paddocks, with five dams, water troughs servicing the remaining paddocks, three seasonal creeks, established Yellow Box and lush improved pasture. A productive bore further supports the property, with a two-way valve allowing water to be directed either to the 22,000L header tank for the gravity-fed stock-water system or directly to the garden.

Historically capable of comfortably carrying approximately 40 cows and calves or 60-plus steers, Cloudbreak combines genuine agricultural capability with an exceptional rural lifestyle.

For equestrian enthusiasts, an American-style barn incorporates three internal stables with split doors opening to a large day yard, complemented by a dedicated round yard and remarkable riding opportunities throughout the surrounding countryside.

Cloudbreak's connection to the High Country runs deeper than its spectacular setting. The property backs directly onto the hillside featured in the iconic "terrible descent" sequence from The Man from Snowy River, placing one of Australian cinema's most recognisable landscapes quite literally at your back door.

For those who dream of the space and privacy of acreage without wanting to operate the entire farm themselves, the property also offers flexibility. The land may be leased to local farmers while retaining selected paddocks for horses or personal use.

Despite its wonderful sense of seclusion, Cloudbreak is remarkably connected. Mansfield is only a short drive away, with Mt Buller, Lake Eildon and the wider Victorian High Country all within easy reach.

Passive solar design, excellent cross ventilation, mains electricity, a 5kW solar system and Tesla Powerwall further enhance the home's comfort and efficiency throughout the seasons.
