Once the elegant private estate of a billionaire, Hidden Valley has become a flourishing community offering an enviable lifestyle. Robert Holmes à Court knew exactly what he was doing when he purchased more than 1,000ha of lush land about 45 minutes north of Melbourne’s CBD.
The picture-perfect landscape of rolling green hills, panoramic views and fresh country air became home to one of his great loves—racehorses. He installed 65km of white-post and rail fencing, created expansive lawns and envisioned Hidden Valley becoming a world-class stud property.
Fast forward to 2026 and Hidden Valley is one of Victoria’s premier residential estates.
The very last stage is now available offering a wide range of sizes and incredible views, with block’s starting at $499,000.
And with a 5% deposit and settlement in late 2027—this is smart buying
“Hidden Valley truly is a unique place—there is nothing like it anywhere else in Victoria” GPPM managing director Theo George said. He has been marketing the estate for 20 years and is now selling the very last stage in the northern part of Hidden Valley.
“The area attracts young families who want to raise their children in a country environment and enjoy all the amenities on site. There is a large Indian community and we also have retirees and everyone in between,” he said. “People love the country resort—style living and the peace and quiet so close to the city.”
Hidden Valley homes can be built in a variety of styles with sensible building guidelines. “Once you purchase your magnificent home site, there is no time frame as to when you need to start construction—it’s entirely up to you,” Mr George said.
Wide roads, mature trees, lakes, white-post and rail fencing, reserves, parkland and walking and cycling tracks crisscross the estate. An 18-hole golf course and golf shop, designed by a champion Australian golfer with two US PGA Tour titles, is one of the jewels in Hidden Valley’s crown, along with a well-equipped equestrian facility. The estate also boasts a country club, bistro, gym ,and an indoor heated pool. Beautiful country town—Wallan is just minutes away with a great country pub, numerous other dining options, major supermarkets and Wellington Square Shopping Centre.
While Hidden Valley feels like a country community, Melbourne’s extensive infrastructure upgrades mean it’s an easy 40-minute drive to reach the heart of Melbourne, and the airport is a just 25 minutes away.
“Hidden Valley, it’s all about serenity, good taste and enjoying a quality lifestyle,” Mr George said.
