Eliza's View - A Private Country Estate Beneath the Strathbogie Ranges

Set privately beneath the dramatic backdrop of the Strathbogie Ranges, Eliza's View is a substantial Merchant Builders home offering exceptional accommodation, established gardens and excellent rural infrastructure in one of Euroa's most tightly held lifestyle locations.

Flooded with natural light, the home has been thoughtfully updated while retaining the warmth and architectural character of its original design. The renovated kitchen features extensive high quality joinery extending to the ceiling, excellent bench and storage space, a combination gas and induction cooktop, two electric ovens and dishwasher.

Offering five to six bedrooms plus a study, three bathrooms and three separate living areas, the home provides genuine flexibility for a large family, guests or working from home. There is an abundance of storage throughout, while the sumptuous main bedroom includes a walk-in robe and ensuite.

An exposed brickwork fireplace adds warmth and character to the formal living room, complemented by reverse-cycle heating and cooling, a wood heater in the dining area, and new carpet throughout.

Outside, the residence is surrounded by an immaculate, predominantly native garden, creating an exceptional sense of privacy. Full reticulation services the established gardens, while the irrigated lawn is beautifully maintained.

An in-ground swimming pool and tennis court complete the lifestyle offering, while workshop and machinery shedding, rainwater tank storage and further storage provide excellent practical infrastructure. Beyond the immediate garden, the property transitions into grazing country and established native timber.

The stunning Garden Range provides an imposing natural backdrop, catching golden light in the late afternoon, while views from the home and garden extend north and west across the surrounding countryside and valley. The land, totalling approximately 49.82 acres, is a blend of open grazing country and areas of established native vegetation.

Importantly, non-potable mains water is connected - a significant advantage for a rural holding in this location.

Forlonge Memorial Road is an exceptionally tightly held and desirable pocket, prized for its natural beauty, privacy and 10-minute proximity to the Euroa township. All of this is positioned just under two hours from Melbourne.

The Story Behind the Name

Eliza's View takes its name from Eliza Forlonge, a pioneering figure in Australia's fine-wool industry. After travelling through Saxony selecting fine-wool Merinos for Australia, Eliza and her family established themselves at nearby Seven Creeks Station. Her contribution to the district and Australia's Merino industry is commemorated by the distinctive wool-bale-shaped memorial on Forlonge Memorial Road.
