117 Nicholson-Sarsfield Road, Nicholson VIC 3882

Large rural block near town | Pool and shedding for lifestyle | Bushfire and flood overlays present | Suits families or hobby buyers This property offers a rare combination of a substantial 1.58-acre block with modern, high-capacity shedding and a pool, all within minutes of Bairnsdale. The 399-square-metre house provides three living zones and an oversized master suite, making it a strong option for families needing both space and separation. The 7×7-metre garage and 6×8.8-metre shed, plus a fenced paddock, directly address the needs of buyers with boats, caravans, tools, or a pony, positioning this as a competitive lifestyle choice rather than a standard rural holding. Solar with battery storage adds ongoing utility savings, reinforcing its appeal to those seeking lower ongoing costs on acreage. The primary risk here is the overlay exposure: bushfire, flood, and heritage overlays are all detected, which will materially affect insurance premiums, any future extension or external renovation approvals, and may limit development options. A buyer should verify the actual flood risk on the specific site and confirm the condition and age of the pool, solar system, and battery before committing. The opportunity lies in the land-to-improvement ratio: the house is well-built and relatively new, but the land itself is the enduring value, especially given the tight supply of such blocks near Bairnsdale. A thorough due diligence on overlays and services will clarify whether this is a straightforward family home or a higher-maintenance holding.
