48 Raglan Street

Daylesford VIC 3460

The original part of the home has grand proportions and retains many beautiful period features highlighted by an elegant, stylish dcor. This section has been skilfully reimagined around the long central hallway to incorporate three large bedrooms, each with its own deluxe ensuite bathroom and walk-in robe. The enormous master bedroom (originally the grand sitting room) features the original fireplace and a lovely bay window with dusky pink glass detailing. A laundry with a huge amount of storage plus an additional separate (4th) toilet has also been cleverly integrated. Original Baltic Pine floorboards have been restored and enhanced with a dark finish, and hydronic heating has been installed throughout this section of the house.

At the end of the hallway, there is a gallery-style transition space between old and new, accessing two sheltered courtyards and the new living area extension with external cladding of Spotted Gum and corrugated iron a masterpiece of spacious open plan design.

A high ceiling with skylights, gleaming timber floors and large windows provide plenty of natural light. At one end of this space, the living area is cocooned by timber panelled walls and plantation shutters. At the other end, the streamlined kitchen and dining area is bathed in northern light and opens on one side to the internal courtyard and on the other to a private terrace with an industrial-style steel-framed pergola.
