31 Lockheeds Road, Little Hampton.

Just minutes from Trentham and within easy reach of Daylesford, this exceptional country estate presents a rare opportunity to secure a property where magnificent gardens, permanent water, substantial infrastructure and timeless country living come together in perfect harmony. Privately positioned within a picturesque rural setting, this distinguished estate has been lovingly created and nurtured over decades. At its heart lies a remarkable collection of mature gardens, recognised as one of the property's defining features. Designed as a series of interconnected garden rooms linked by winding pathways, avenues and carefully framed vistas, each space reveals its own unique beauty as the seasons unfold. A stately driveway lined with magnificent mature plane trees creates a memorable arrival, leading through towering dogwoods, established rhododendrons and an enchanting magnolia walk. The formal parterre gardens provide timeless elegance, while expansive plantings of roses, irises, seasonal bulbs and ornamental specimen trees ensure year-round colour and visual interest. A tranquil pond framed by ornamental pear trees welcomes visitors to the residence, while a stunning Japanese-inspired steel pergola draped with flowering cherry trees creates one of the property's most memorable garden experiences. Beyond, a peaceful maple garden, established hedging and thoughtfully positioned specimen plantings provide privacy, structure and serenity throughout the landscape. Among the many botanical highlights is an exceptional pussy willow tree of remarkable age and scale, adding yet another layer of distinction to these extraordinary grounds. Positioned to embrace the surrounding landscape, the Master Builder-constructed residence offers beautiful garden views from every room. Built from enduring Mt Gambier limestone, the home features three generous bedrooms, two bathrooms and an oversized double garage. A wide tiled entrance and high ceilings create an immediate sense of space and quality. The generous living room, centered around a welcoming wood fire, flows effortlessly into a light-filled sunroom overlooking the gardens, creating inviting spaces to relax throughout every season. The timeless kitchen combines practicality with quality, featuring stone benchtops, a Blanco wall oven and Bosch dishwasher while maintaining a wonderful connection to the surrounding landscape. Beyond the home lies an impressive array of infrastructure seldom found on properties of this calibre. The substantial 25m x 20m custom-built shed with concrete flooring offers exceptional flexibility. Whether envisioned as an equestrian complex with multiple stables and tack rooms, a commercial nursery, workshop, event space, storage facility or home-based business headquarters (STCA), the possibilities are extensive. Complementing this is the substantial 17m x 7m machinery shed with concrete flooring, roller-door access and dedicated workshop space, providing outstanding accommodation for machinery, vehicles, equipment, trades or agricultural pursuits. The land is thoughtfully divided into paddocks incorporating grazing areas, native forest and picturesque dam surrounds. Water forms an integral part of the landscape, with two spring-fed freshwater dams stocked with rainbow trout creating stunning focal points while offering opportunities for fishing, swimming and productive land use. Overlooking the water, a charming self-contained cabin with kitchenette and outdoor entertaining area provides the perfect retreat for guests, creative pursuits or peaceful relaxation. Decking and a private jetty further enhance the waterfront setting, creating an idyllic place to unwind while enjoying the surrounding landscape. Adding another unique dimension to the property is a striking sculpture park featuring a dramatic steel moon gate and a large-scale Getty Centre-inspired steel tree, seamlessly blending art with the natural environment. For those seeking greater self-sufficiency, horticultural pursuits or boutique agricultural ventures, the property is exceptionally well equipped with a poly tunnel greenhouse, extensive rainwater storage, woodshed and fertile productive land. The renowned Trentham district is ideally suited to premium cool-climate produce including peonies, truffles and specialty potatoes, offering exciting opportunities for both lifestyle and commercial pursuits. Properties offering this exceptional combination of established gardens, permanent water, quality accommodation and extensive infrastructure are becoming increasingly scarce. The true value of this remarkable estate lies not only in what exists today, but in the decades of vision, care and dedication that would be required to recreate it. A truly extraordinary lifestyle property to enjoy today and cherish for generations to come.
