Overview

South Purrumbete is a rural locality within the Shire of Corangamite in Victoria, Australia. The area’s volcanic soils have long supported grazing and dairying, reflecting a strong agricultural heritage that began with the Purrumbete pastoral run in 1838 and continued as smaller farm selections were taken up from the 1870s through the 1970s.

The community once centred around a school opened in 1877 and nearby Catholic and Presbyterian churches, all of which have since closed, indicating limited local services today. Residences are predominantly farm‑based properties, offering spacious, country‑style living set amid open farmland and the region’s historic pastoral landscape.
