the district LIFESTYLE RESIDENTIAL RURAL PROPERTY NORTH EAST VICTORIA Welcome to 'The District'.

As always, we have some amazing properties for sale and if you can't get here to check them out in person, due to the ever changing situation with COVID or just your own personal circumstances, we can provide you with links to 3D virtual tours and can also walk through the properties with you on a personal video call.

If nothing in this edition quite fits the bill for you, please tell us about your 'dream home' (and ideal price range) and we will keep you updated with details of any new listings that might suit. We are selling quite a few properties 'off market' every month so make sure you don't miss out!

Our marketing is generating a huge volume of new enquiries, particularly from buyers keen to move 'to the country'. Nearly every member of our team has relocated from either Melbourne or other areas in Australia and have lots of great advice to make your move easier and more rewarding so don't hesitate to ask about any concerns you have about your 'tree change'.

If you are thinking of selling or buying a property anywhere in the Mansfield or Wangaratta districts, now is a great time to make a move and we would love to help you.

Please take a look at our website, or give us a call on 1300 222 262.

cheers, Jenny

what do people say about us?

As a mature ageing couple and possibly even in our twilight years, we were very grateful for Natalie's hands-on involvement in securing our 'forever home'. This first time daunting property buying process from our perspective was so very much more enjoyable with Natalie's dedication and commitment to both the vendor and us the purchaser. Her professionalism and human values are very rare nowadays and second to none. We highly recommend integrating Natalie in your selling or purchasing quest.

Rick & Gabi purchased in Mansfield 2022 We were extremely happy with the quick turnaround with the sale of our land at a premium price as advertised by Jenny Everything was in place before we knew it Rob & Carol sold in Mansfield 2021

Jess is amazing. Her professionalism is outstanding. Jess went above and beyond to help me with every aspect in the sale of my home. Her communication skills are sensational and I would recommend Jess every time if you need a professional agent to sell your property.

Donna sold in Mansfield 2022 We did not get to know Natalie very well, as she managed to sell our property in 8 days after going on the market! Our dealings with her were very pleasant and she conducted herself in a very professional manner. She managed to get a life changing result on the sale of our property.

13 avoca court mansfield | $1,400,000 - $1,500,000 4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 998 m2 | 10m x 8m high span shed This is an award winning builder’s own home and you can tell! Thoughtful design, impeccable quality and attention to detail have created a beautiful light filled home where living really is easy.

Huge custom built windows and doors are all double glazed of course. The stunning polished concrete floor boasts hydronic heating via a remarkable wood fire.

Design features include Corten steel, Messmate beams and Blackbutt cabinetry and decking. The oversized double garage is complemented by a 8m x 11m high span shed. The floorplan includes 4 bedrooms, 2 stunning bathrooms and 2 separate living areas plus the fabulous all weather alfresco overlooking the travertine paved pool area. There's also a lovely lawn area shaded by established trees, veggie gardens and even a sandpit. There's a lot here and you can't see a thing from the street.

It really is an incredibly private property, yet you can walk to High Street within minutes.

513 bunstons road tolmie | $825,000 - $895,000 4 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 2.58 ha = 6.4 acres | separate studio Have you always dreamed of your own cabin in the woods, somewhere you can escape to when you need some time out from the craziness of modern life in the city. Well here it is!

This is an amazing property, tucked away in a very private, very peaceful setting in the magnificent High Country. Time seems to slow down a little here...and the views are truly spectacular with a panorama of snow capped peaks in Winter. Wildlife is abundant including plenty of deer.

The main home boasts soaring cathedral ceilings and stunning stone feature walls, with 2 bedrooms downstairs and another 2 upstairs. The original cottage aka 'The Hut' offers basic accommodation, a short stroll from the main home.

There's enough pasture to keep a pony or two, and the riding here is fabulous. If you prefer your horsepower from an engine, there are also plenty of challenging trails for motorbikes and 4WD's within easy reach. Or just stay home, relax and enjoy the view!

21 cobham street jamieson | 3 Bedrooms |1 Bathroom | 1287 m2 ONLINE AUCTION VIA 'OPENN NEGOTIATION' | EPR $600,000 - $660,000 The beautiful Jamieson River is less than 100 metres from the front door of this neat 70's era home. There's rarely any traffic in this quiet cul-de-sac so your family can literally walk down the centre of the road, past the iconic Juddy's Hut and take a dip in a beautiful swimming hole without a care in the world.

The house is very comfortable if a little dated, and should come up a treat with a quick makeover. We think the best feature is the lovely big back verandah shaded by a magnificent tulip tree.

And then there's the shed! What a ripper. 4 bays measuring 14.6m x 7.6m with concrete floor, power and 3 high clearance roller doors. The property was originally 2 blocks and the total land area is 1287m2. The house sits towards the corner of Brown Street on one block and the shed is at the back of the second block with loads of room to build another dwelling (STCA) or just park caravans, boats and all the other essential items.

682 Creek Junction Road Kithbrook | $650,000 - $700,000 4.61HA = 11.39 acres | original homestead | sheds | Spring fed dams One of your last chances to acquire an acreage property of this size surrounded by big farms. You could renovate/rebuild the turn of the century farmhouse or perhaps you might convert the shearing shed into a very groovy new home?

With 4.61ha (just shy of 12 acres) of useable relatively level land, the property includes a shearing shed, sheep yards, heritage silo, old dairy, storage shed, well established gardens and fruit trees as well as the original homestead which has been in the same family for over 4 generations.

Newly fenced paddocks provide ample space and pasture for horses or stock and 2 spring fed dams to provide plenty of water year round.

just sold

7 fossickers trail goughs bay | $680,000 - $740,000 3 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms | 4 car carport | 12m x 3m shed | 1368 m2 There's a lot on offer in this funky 80's style home, but it will be hard to get you off the big front deck. If you can tear yourself away from the lake view there's another big deck at the rear of the home with lovely leafy views. Inside this deceptively spacious home is very comfortable with nice new wood fire to keep you cosy in the cooler months and a split system air-conditioner for instant heating and cooling. The soaring cathedral ceilings feature straw lining that helps insulate the home. There's a big master bedroom downstairs and another couple of bedrooms upstairs with their own bathroom.

Back outside there's a drive through 4 car carport, great sheds including a 12m x 3m beauty plus a nice level backyard and good selection of established fruit trees. There's plenty of guest parking space which will come in handy.

If you need to stay in touch with the world outside of 'The Bay' you have great mobile reception here and wireless NBN.

19 godwills road mansfield | $1,200,000 - $1,300,000 4 Bedrooms & studio| 3 Bathrooms | 3 bay shed | 1.25 HA = 3 Acres This big beautiful homestead is a picturesque 10 minute drive from town, and boasts spectacular views across the Delatite Valley to Mt Buller and Mt Timbertop to the East and the Blue Range to the North, which becomes a spectacular waterfall in heavy rain. You have all the joy of living on a big farm with barely a neighbour in sight, but there is just over 3 acres to maintain. The established native gardens attract some gorgeous birds and are now pretty much drought proof. So no watering, just a little mowing and your farm chores are done! That said there is plenty of room to grow vegetables, run some chooks and maybe keep a pony or two. The spa on the wide return verandah is the perfect spot to relax after a hard day 'on the farm' and be amazed by the incredibly starry night skies. It is so peaceful here...you will not want to leave, so it's lucky that there's a great set up to work from home (with NBN Satellite service available). You could set up a home office in the little studio that's a short stroll from the house or maybe convert it into guest accommodation.

945 Howes Creek Road Mansfield | $1,350,000 3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 4.5 HA = 11.25 acres Oversized double garage | second garage and workshop This is a very special home in a very special location. You can walk down the driveway and across the road to the lakefront reserve. It's a beautiful morning walk and when you come home the North facing alfresco area is the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee or tea in the sun and listen to the native birds in the garden. The home was designed to be both attractive and practical. Big double glazed windows and sliding doors flood the home in natural light and take full advantage of the beautiful garden vistas. Soaring ceilings add to the light airy feeling and the bamboo flooring is both environmentally responsible and extremely durable and easy to clean. A small orchard, several well fenced paddocks and a beautiful big dam make this the ideal 'mini-farm' package. And all of this is only a few minutes drive from the centre of town, with a school bus service past the front gate.

405 HOWES CREEK-GOUGHS BAY ROAD, GOUGHS BAY $2,500,000 - $2,750,000 | 5 Bedrooms | 3 BathroomS | 3 car garage 36.07 HA = 89 AcreS | 2 dams | 25m x 7.5m high span shed In this crazy world the ultimate luxury is quality time spent with family and friends. This property provides a superb setting to do just that. The location is truly incredible, with the magnificent home cleverly designed and positioned to ensure complete privacy while taking full advantage of the panoramic views encompassing both Lake Eildon and Mt Buller. Photos just cannot do justice to the views that are enjoyed from literally every room of the house and of course the fabulous pool and deck. While it might feel like you are a million miles from the stress of city life, you can in fact keep your business humming with high speed NBN service and excellent mobile phone reception. You can also turn it all off, swim a few laps in the heated pool…then relax with a coffee or wine on the verandah, take in those incredible views and just enjoy the peace and quiet!

It is about 15 minutes from Mansfield and there is a school bus service. You can launch your boat on the concrete deep water ramps at Goughs Bay within a few minutes, and in winter you can be on the snow at Mt Buller in less than an hour

1B howqua track, howqua hills historic area | 1.85 ha = 5 acres $1,500,000 - $1,650,000 | howqua river frontage 6 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 7.0m x 6.2m shed A very rare chance to secure a prime riverfront holding in a truly incredible setting. The Howqua River wraps right around the property, which is tucked away between the Alpine National Park and The Mansfield State Forest. It is one of only a tiny handful of privately owned properties in the Howqua Hills Historical Area. Access is either via Merrijig, Sheepyard Flat and then past Tobacco Flat, or alternately via Howqua River Road, Steiners Road and then Howqua Hills Track. 4WD is recommended but don't be fooled by the remote nature. There are still plenty of creature comforts to be had with the 6 bedroom lodge style home powered by a 2KW Victron Energy Off-Grid solar and battery system with back up generator. There is even a phone line and internet available!

68 james street, bonnie doon | 855 m2 $850,000 - $930,000 | prime lakefront location 3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | drive through garage and workshop Wouldn't you love to roll your boat down your driveway and straight onto the water? The land gently slopes down towards the lake, with a great beach area and no steep drop off.

The home is in comfortable living condition, with exciting potential for renovation in the future to capitalise on this amazing lakefront location. The huge open plan living area runs the full width of the top storey of the house, with a wide verandah on the lakeside. There's also 2 bedrooms and an updated bathroom upstairs. On ground level you will find the big rumpus/bunkroom with another bathroom and a kitchenette, plus a huge laundry and storeroom plus the drive through garage and big workshop area. The concrete driveway runs from the street through the garage and right down to the lakeside property boundary. A bore supplies water to keep the lush lawns and gardens green all year.

26 LINKS ROAD mansfield | $750,000 - $800,000 1195 M2 | 4 bedrooms | 1 bathroom CARPORT | PLUNGE POOL | LARGE BACKYARD OVERLOOKING GOLF COURSE Set on nearly a third of an acre, this craftsman built brick home is deceptively spacious with 4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and the plumbing already available for an en-suite off the master bedroom. The galley style kitchen has a lovely outlook across the backyard to the lush green golf course and features a breakfast bar and plenty of bench space. The adjacent living and dining area lead outside to a fenced central courtyard and plunge pool. The pool is currently sporting some organisms that probably aren't conducive to swimming, but with a drain, clean and re-fill it would be an amazing place to relax and enjoy the view.

There's another separate living area and a carport under the roofline that could be converted to a garage. A wide side gate allows vehicle access to the huge backyard and there's plenty of room to build a big shed. The house is set towards the front of the block, allowing ample space for a new extension to capitalise on the lovely golf course outlook.

It flows year round and really is like having your own private river! There's a great mix of country, with the lush creek flat pasture boasting several big dams stocked with Redfin and a nice little portion of rising country with magnificent gums complete with water races dating back to the old gold mining days. It's incredibly private and the views to the nearby Strathbogie State Forest are just beautiful! The renovated ranch style home is nestled amongst some huge deciduous trees, providing shade in Spring and Summer and a stunning show of colour in Autumn. There's a new kitchen, but we think homemade pizza from the outdoor wood fired oven will be in high demand...followed by toasted marshmallows devoured around the awesome fire-pit.

There are 3 big bedrooms plus a lined studio that you could convert to additional accommodation (STCA). And there is definitely no shortage of shed space!

But maybe you just want to get back to nature and camp out for a while...It's worth noting that some of the neighbours generate very tidy incomes from paying guests via hipcamp.com and you could designate areas well away from your own.

Spotlight on selecting your real estate agent

They say that moving house is one of the most stressful things to do in your lifetime.

This is why it is crucial to find the right real estate agent to take care of the sale and go into the process with your eyes wide open.

Here are the top 5 qualities to help you pick the agent who will help make your journey a smooth, stress-free and successful experience.

1. Local Market Expertise The agent you choose must be a local expert - sounds logical! They should be aware of the latest real estate market trends, including knowing what recently sold for what price, currently listed properties in the area and how they might compare to your property. They should also have a great knowledge of the area and can recommend their favourite local restaurant. This helps to sell the area, and therefore your property!

But it also needs to be someone with experience, great negotiation skills, and a proven track record with tangible results. Don't be afraid to ask for references or proof of sales.

The team at DPG are marketing and negotiating experts, with experience unlike any other agents in the district, and our results speak for themselves According to realestate.com.au, Australia's premiere real estate sales platform, DPG consistently outsells all of the other agencies in town by a significant amount, nearly double our nearest competitor. If you are reading the online version of the district you can click on this link for view a summary of market activity in the past 12 months: https://www.realestate.com.au/find-agency/mansfield---greater-region-vic What this means for our vendors is a bigger pool of buyers and greater exposure for their property. More competition means higher prices and less days on the market.

2. Excellent Communication Despite what people may believe, Real Estate is a people business more than a property business. Without great communication, there will be no sale.

Finding the right agent for you is about working with a team who are able to communicate with you how you'd prefer (emails/text messages/phone calls) and when you would prefer (immediate feedback, or a regular reporting approach). It should feel easy to stay informed about the progress of your sale or purchase.

DPG employs a number of new technologies to make communicating with our clients even easier!

PleaseSign - Sign contracts and documents without even leaving your home Podium - Our direct chat service which you can access via our website, google, facebook and instagram.

Email/mobile and office phones/shop front office - DPG have staff manning the office and phone lines 7 days a week!

3. Trust and Transparency Like in any relationship, trust and transparency are keys for a successful outcome. To achieve this, your agent should listen and be transparent in all dealings with you. You should choose a real estate agent who is not afraid of telling you the truth, even if you may not like to hear it. A common sensitive topic is that of the price you are wanting for your home; no matter your expectations, a good agent should always provide an honest, realistic appraisal, based on facts.

With a highly experienced team and a 'no bs' policy, our sales results show that we consistently price properties correctly and understand the best methods to get the best results for your property.

4. Drive and Passion These are key attributes of a great real estate agent. Look for someone motivated, who takes pride in achieving the best result and who will always be happy to go above and beyond. You don't want an agent who will just put a few ads online and sit back and wait, you want someone who will look in all nooks and crannies to find potential buyers for your property.

All the members of District Property Group prides themselves on their ability to go the extra mile for all their clients, whether they are sellers, buyers, landlords, or renters. We strive for excellent customer service, and getting the best results.
