A coastal Victorian island retreat once owned by pop superstar Kylie Minogue has been sold.

It is the farm holding she owned between 2005 and 2010, not her residential retreat, Beauciel.

Set in Westernport Bay, the environmentally sensitive French Island is about twice the size of nearby Phillip Island, but has just 120 permanent residents.

It is only accessible by helicopter, plane or boat.

The 71 hectare elevated farmland property, that comes with building permits, was sold by Minogue for $530,000 in 2010. She had paid $292,000 in 2005.

There are four dams, a private billabong, large established gum trees and natural bushland, excellent pasture, and orchard.

There are koalas too.
