Landscape designer Perry Lane has designed the diverse and productive garden for all seasons incorporating a stunning free owing naturalistic garden with blossom trees, peonies and thousands of bulbs in Spring, masses of self seeding wildowers, ornamental grasses and choice perennials in Summer, incredible Autumn colours and the strong structure of sheltering evergreens in Winter.
In addition, an expansive vegetable garden, olive grove and orchard including a pear walk, apples, stone fruit, citrus, gs, pomegranate, quince trees and many other rare and heritage fruiting trees ensures a steady supply of fruits and vegetables for the kitchen and pantry. The property is a healthy environment to live in, having been organically managed and spray free for at least 45 years.
With beautiful long rural views, a bore with quality pure drinking water, original old dairy and Post ofce buildings and a magical garden setting this property is rich in history and a true country retreat. Ideally located only 17 minutes from Creswick and Daylesford and 30 minutes to Castlemaine and Ballarat.
