Given the $2,750,000–$2,950,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $2,750,000–$2,950,000(Listing record · 10 Dec 2025)
  • FactLand 211,200 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)

What could make it worth more?

No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.

What could make it worth less?

No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.

What should you verify next?

  1. 1Official planning layers are still retrieving for this parcel — check back before relying on zoning or overlay absence.
  2. 2No hazard layer has been retrieved — confirm flood, bushfire and heritage exposure from council mapping before an offer.

Each line above is labelled. A fact is quoted from the named source, with its date. A calculation is worked out by Districts from those facts — you can check the arithmetic. An interpretation is Districts' opinion of what the evidence means, not a fact, a valuation, or advice. Anything we haven't retrieved yet is marked as missing rather than treated as a pass.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

Capital growth

VIC

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet. A suburb median or growth rate is not a reason this particular lot would outperform. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

No advertised rent and no suburb rent aggregate are loaded. Official bond files are not loaded. Listing rent and suburb aggregates are evidence, not this address’s rent.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded. Suburb vacancy or leased-tape days are not this property’s competition.

What does the yield actually look like?

Confidence: low

Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Verdict

What this means for this property

Districts view

Not enough official evidence yet to underwrite this as an investment.

Detail

The same ten questions apply to every property. Missing flood, nearby DAs, achieved rents, or lot geometry is unknown — not “no.”

Do not treat a suburb median, an advertised yield, or a listing score as the case for this lot.

The evidence loaded so far isn't enough on its own to change a buy, offer, or walk-away decision for this property.

Evidence

What is known for this property

Districts asks the same ten questions of every property. If one shows as unknown, that data isn't published for this state or hasn't been loaded yet — the question stays visible so you can see exactly what's missing.

Listing material

Listed by McQueen Real Estate

Historic Elegance Reimagined for Modern Country Living

Firs Estate is a historic country property of character and beauty, set across 21.12 hectares (52 acres approx.) between Daylesford and Ballarat, just five minutes from Creswick. Built circa 1860 and extensively renovated, this magnificent property has been carefully reimagined to preserve its heritage character with modern comfort, creating a timeless retreat designed for both relaxation and entertainment.

A tree-lined driveway leads to the residence, where wisteria-covered verandas frame manicured gardens and open lawns. Inside, the home reflects the craftsmanship of its era with 12 feet high ceilings, ornate fret work, wide hallways, timber floors and cast-iron fireplaces, now balanced by a considered sense of modern ease.

The kitchen and dining area form the centrepiece of the home. With a vaulted ceiling and exposed brick feature walls, it includes stone benchtops, a Bosch 90cm gas cooktop, dual ovens, Fisher & Paykel cool and warm drawers, Bosch dishwasher, built in coffee machine, wine fridge and a large walk-in pantry with ample storage. The adjoining dining space opens to picturesque courtyard and garden views, complemented by two elegant living rooms with wood fires, including one showcasing an original 150-year-old Ballarat mantle – perfect for elegant family gatherings or peaceful relaxation.

Read the full description

Accommodation includes four well-proportioned bedrooms that continue the home’s sense of charm and comfort, with each bedroom featuring its own cast iron fireplace. Two updated bathrooms, each with underfloor heating and distinct masculine and feminine styling, add a refined contemporary touch.

The separate studio, with its own entrance, provides flexibility with its two rooms convenient as a fifth bedroom, office or guest retreat. It includes a combined bathroom and laundry with farmhouse sink, under bench washer and dryer space, and provision for a bath or shower.

Beyond the home, the outdoor spaces transform Firs Estate into a true lifestyle destination. The impressive entertaining area boasts a heated swimming pool with dual heaters for rapid warmth, a custom water jet system, and an automated retractable cover for effortless open-and-close convenience. An automatic water-filling system ensures year-round enjoyment with minimal maintenance. Surrounding manicured gardens are serviced by a fully automated sprinkler system for easy upkeep. This space also features a family-sized heated spa accommodating up to nine people, complete with 91 jets, nine massage seats, and a remote-controlled cover that doubles as insulation and shade. Extensive outdoor lighting and premium external speakers complete the resort-style ambience, making it perfect for hosting gatherings or unwinding in complete privacy.

The property unfolds across a series of defined spaces that balance beauty with practicality. A courtyard with a fountain, grapevine draped arbour and converted stables offers a natural setting for entertaining. The gardens include established lawns, mixed fruit, nut and olive trees, and new secure fencing that creates an enclosed dog yard.

The reimagined original shearing shed is now a versatile space that serves as a studio, gym or potential guest retreat (STCA). It is timber lined with a mezzanine level, plantation shutters and exposed beams, and features French doors that open to a deck overlooking the property, creating an inspiring environment for creative or leisure use.

Across the grounds are seven to eight paddocks, a spring-fed dam, and a series of practical farm structures – including an original barn that offers versatile space for storage, livestock, or conversion into a workshop or entertainment area. There’s also a defined space for a firepit and a container bar, creating plenty of ways to entertain and enjoy the outdoors.

The property features split-system heating and cooling throughout, with 12 individual units for year-round comfort. It is connected to mains power and water, enhanced by a 96-panel, 38.48kW solar system supported by two Tesla batteries for dependable energy storage, bottled LPG gas, and a newly installed Fuji waste system. Security and connectivity are equally well considered, with fixed wireless NBN, (super fast activated - 400mb+), ethernet and wireless access points, to enable networked camera surveillance system for peace of mind.

Ideally located just 5 minutes from Creswick, offering a vibrant mix of cafés, specialty boutique shops, and essential services including IGA, post office, chemist, GP, dental, vet, hardware store, liquor store, and more – combining everyday convenience with the charm of country living.

Formerly used as an exclusive wedding venue, it has been thoughtfully transformed into a private residence – blending timeless character with elevated lifestyle features. Located only 90 minutes from Melbourne, 20 minutes from Ballarat, and 15 minutes from Daylesford, Firs Estate delivers an unparalleled combination of historic elegance, modern comfort, and serene natural beauty – a rare opportunity for those seeking space, versatility, and prestige.
