HISTORICAL GRANITE COTTAGE CIRCA 1850's - 6 ACRES ON 10 TITLES.

If only these walls could talk.....
Occupying 5 acres on 10 allotments and with the use of an extra acre under a 99 year crown lease, this significant Georgian style historical delight will certainly steal your heart. Located in the popular Central Victorian region of Lockwood South, just 15 minutes from Bendigo and 10 minutes from Kangaroo Flat, the position of this striking home is truly outstanding. Set amongst 100 year old redgums the picturesque sloping block features a hill at the rear of the property with stunning sweeping views across the district - with council approval what a place to build your dream home.
Step inside the home you'll first notice the timber thresholds and huge granite blocks forming & framing the entrance. The façade is straight from the pages of a history book with a full length timber decked bullnose verandah and the central solid timber door invites you in.
The classic central hallway adorned with dado boards is flanked by the main bedroom with a truly impressive granite wall and fireplace, the stones have been painstakingly revealed and repointed to their former glory. Large patterned cornice and internal casement windows also with sidelights feature in both the main bedroom and the lounge flanking the other side of the hall. The internal windows serve the same purpose as double glazing, assisting in sound proofing and insulating the home.
The lounge has the original ironbark floorboards, a trapdoor to a filled in cellar, along with a corner fireplace and chimney which is believed to have been where the door to the bar was in a former incarnation as a Goldfields Hotel or Police Troopers Barracks.
The rustic kitchen has an upright stove, ample storage and bench space and another fireplace. The second bedroom is a good size while the third bedroom has a pressed metal ceiling. The home is serviced by a three piece bathroom and separate toilet. The laundry also has a pressed metal ceiling and endearing original concrete troughs.
At the rear of the home is a versatile room with its own split system, which could be a second living area or rumpus room where French doors open onto an expansive undercover, paved outdoor entertaining area with a built-in open fireplace. From here you look out over a picturesque backyard with rotunda.
A seasonal spring, dam, water tanks and a 1meg water right covers your water requirements. Outbuildings include a double garage with power but that is not nearly as interesting as the old dairy and shearing shed, or what was believed to be the Cobb & Co Station stop stables. Enjoy the beauty of the outdoors with established trees, including ancient river red gums, peppercorn trees, heritage roses, and a variety of fruit trees.
With easy access to Melbourne via the Calder Hwy, and the Belvoir Park Golf Course just minutes away, what else could you be seeking in a country retreat. This property is more than just a home, it's a lifestyle steeped in history, waiting for the next owner to cherish and enhance its legacy.
