Once in a Lifetime - Violet Creek Homestead - Circa 1840
In the past 180 years this wonderful property has only been in 2 families making this a true once in a lifetime opportunity!
Violet Creek Homestead is an historic bluestone homestead set on 21.5 acres just five minutes from Hamilton, lovingly preserved, and fused with a modern contemporary design completed just last year.
The new and old blend seamlessly as modern living zones embrace natural light and outstanding views, while tastefully respecting the history of the original buildings comprising bedrooms, retreats, and the gatehouse.
The original bluestone buildings contain three formal bedrooms, a fourth bedroom/parent's retreat, a library, a sitting room/snug, a bathroom, a large lounge/living room that opens to a West facing patio, a central hall, an East facing veranda overlooking the grounds, and a driveway gatehouse with open fire, ideal as a getaway retreat!
The modern renovation blends the old with the new comprising a study, huge bathroom, laundry, powder room, dining hall, and stunning kitchen with forty-kilometre views to the Grampians, glass slider to alfresco and a scullery/butler's pantry.
The original buildings are well preserved and have period features double bluestone walls, intricate rendering, combustion wood heaters and open fires, while the new has double glazed windows offering views from every window, skylights to maximize natural light, and all the storage you could ever need.
What the owners love:
• Breakfast at the kitchen counter watching the sun rise over The Grampians.
• Late afternoon wines on the viewing deck overlooking Violet creek.
• Settling into the snug in front of the fire on a winter's evening.
