An Established Country Estate for Generations to Enjoy
243 Knox Road, Romsey
Set across approximately 13.6 hectares (33 acres) of fertile red volcanic soil, this exceptional rural estate brings together country elegance, an enviable lifestyle and remarkable versatility in a picturesque Romsey setting. With a meandering creek, mature trees and gently undulating pastures, the property offers a beautiful rural environment with the added advantage of established income-producing opportunities.
At its heart, the main residence is a gracious Victorian-inspired homestead, exquisitely finished and thoughtfully designed for modern family living. Generously proportioned, the home comprises four bedrooms and multiple living zones, enhanced by high ceilings, abundant natural light and double glazing throughout.
The kitchen and main living area form a warm and inviting central hub, anchored by a wood fireplace, while centrally controlled electric ducted heating and cooling provides year-round comfort. The beautifully appointed kitchen features a Falcon cooker, butler’s pantry and refined detailing, with the adjoining dining and living spaces flowing naturally to a central entertaining deck. A wraparound verandah frames the home and captures sweeping rural vistas, creating a seamless connection between indoors and the surrounding landscape.
Beyond the homestead, the property reveals one of its most compelling attributes: three distinct dwellings offering exceptional flexibility for family living across generations, guest accommodation or established income.
Space for family, with independence for everyone.
For intergenerational families seeking room to come together without compromising privacy, the possibilities are particularly appealing. The beautifully restored, self-contained two-bedroom Stables offers a welcoming retreat for parents, adult children or extended family, while The Cottage, a separate original farmhouse, provides further accommodation within its own peaceful surrounds. Together with the main homestead, these three dwellings create an increasingly rare opportunity for multiple generations to enjoy the benefits of country living while maintaining their own space and independence.
For those looking to generate an income, the options are equally attractive. The Stables currently operates as a successful bed and breakfast, while The Cottage provides an established rental return. Two picturesque, low-maintenance camping sites offer an additional income stream, making it possible to combine family living with accommodation ventures according to individual needs and aspirations.
Each dwelling benefits from its own access via sealed road frontage, further enhancing the property's flexibility, privacy and functionality.
The grounds complement the lifestyle with a beautifully established, irrigated vegetable garden and dedicated chook shed, while extensive infrastructure caters to both practical and professional pursuits. A machinery shed, workshop and separate office with kitchenette provide valuable space for equipment, projects, remote work or property management.
Water security is well catered for, with town water servicing The Cottage and The Stables, two 22,500-litre rainwater tanks supplying the main residence, and a spring-fed dam adding to the property's rural appeal. The land is well suited to grazing and hay production, with established pasture improvements, including lucerne, and shelter belts enhancing productivity and usability.
Located under an hour from Melbourne's CBD and approximately 40 minutes from Melbourne Airport, this is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial country estate offering a beautiful family lifestyle, flexible accommodation and established income-producing potential.
A country estate to bring generations together, create room to grow and shape a lifestyle for years to come.
