Nestled on the Macedon range this magnificent estate combines historical charm and character with contemporary elegance. Originally set on 60 acres of botanical gardens and built in 1873 for the daughter of Charles Ryan who married the Governor of the day, the estate is one of the oldest in the region.
Whilst only a relatively small portion of the original home still stands as the guest wing, it combines seamlessly with the much newer main residence (circa 2007) now on 2.5 acres of breathtakingly beautiful, relatively low maintenance grounds.
Framed by a 150 year old oak tree and a 100 year old Californian Redwood this remarkable home is reminiscent of an elegant chateau or Hamptons style manor. Derriweit is situated some 650 metres above sea level and sports wonderful views over the valley below and the Melbourne city lights beyond. High ceilings and large picture windows provide oodles of natural light and a wonderful feeling of space. The large open plan living, kitchen and dining room form the heart of the home and incorporate a gas fire place for the cooler months and split system zoned Daikin air conditioning for the summer months. The spacious kitchen features Miele appliances and stone bench tops and is ideal for entertaining. Other living areas include a media/tv room and a fantastic separate barn-style games room. An impressive turret houses the stairs which lead to the 4 upstairs bedrooms including an expansive master suite with stunning ensuite and large walk-in robe.
Below the living area is a wine cellar; a self contained guest suite and a 4 car garage. The original section of the home is now a 3 bedroom guest wing with its own kitchen, living space and separate external access (if needed). The original carriageway in the forecourt leads to another 2 car garage and the games room/barn.
Whether it is a stunning weekend retreat or a tree change you seek, this property is a place where many wonderful family memories will be created. To arrange an inspection of this truly unique estate call Nicolette van Wijngaarden on 0411 144 877 or Janine Lum
