"My wife and I are offering Graemar for sale to allow us to retire," Jim said.
"We like this district so much that we are currently building a new home in the Euroa township and I have a small block locally where I can play farmers."
The spacious four-bedroom weatherboard homestead at Graemar is well presented and is in a garden setting.
There is an in-ground pool and recreation facility adjoining.
Graemar is located about one-and-a-half hours' drive from Melbourne.
