Harvest Farm, one of the Yarra Valley's finest residences on acreage, complete with two B &amp; B cottages, <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-acreage+semi+rural-vic-healesville-120056253" target="_blank">has been listed for sale</a>.
The Healesville estate was created by food and lifestyle business identities Michael Kennedy and Kylie Balharrie, who are best known for running the Healesville Hotel.
The 101 Badger Avenue has been listed through Matt Childs and Pat Hawkins at Pat Rice &amp; Hawkins who expect the 7.63 hectares (19 acres) property will attract offers above $1.6 million. 
Offers are due by August for the architect designed, craftsman built contemporary four bedroom homestead. The solar passive home was designed by architect Kylie Fitt and built by Overend Constructions in 2006 featuring the use of rammed earth, glass and cedar timber.
It was built along an east west axis with the 35 metre long rammed earth wall as its spine in order to harvest the solar resources and to show the unobstructed district features including the mountain ranges that adjoin Healesville.
The two original cottages on the property when the Kennedy-Balharrie partnership first purchased the block have been restored as self catering accommodation. 
Growth over the last decade has created an over six figure guest income, with the farming have been menioned in numerous architectural, lifestyle and destination publications, on popular television programs.
The house featured in the recently released Country Style Homes book as ”a house that inspires and delights”.
The family are moving closer to schools.
