165 Duggans Lane, Lara VIC 3212

4-bedroom weatherboard homestead | 65-acre rural holding | sweeping You Yangs views | long Hovells Creek frontage This property presents a rare combination of period character and substantial landholding within commuting distance of Geelong. The uninterrupted views and creek frontage create a lifestyle asset with genuine scarcity value in the Lara market. The generous four-bedroom layout and central living space suit families seeking a tree-change without sacrificing proximity to urban services. This property best serves buyers who prioritise landholding and outlook over modern finishes, and who value the privacy afforded by a long driveway. The primary risk lies in the property’s condition as a weatherboard homestead of unknown age and maintenance history, which may require significant capital expenditure post-purchase. The lack of floor plans and school catchment data introduces uncertainty for buyers with specific family or renovation timelines. However, the 65-acre parcel offers subdivision potential subject to council approval, and the creek frontage adds ecological and aesthetic value that can be leveraged in future resale. Hold this property as a long-term lifestyle holding with optionality to develop or sell in parts.
