New Gisborne VIC 3438

A breathtaking jewel amid the magnificence of the Barringo Valley, Wooling Hill is one of the Macedon Ranges most historic properties.Settled in 1839-40 by Scottish tailor William Robertson and pre-dating even the establishment of Gisborne, Wooling Hill is a pioneering landmark from days when Victoria was still part of the Port Phillip district of NSW.With eight lakes, waterfalls and romantic European-style gardens boasting thousands of mature trees and mountain panoramas, the 40-acre (16ha approx.) property has to be seen to be believed.Taking pride of place overlooking the main ornamental lake is an impressive two-storey executive house and chapel that in recent years has operated as a memorial garden and function centre. With a large reception room big enough to take a sit-down wedding for 90, this elegant and spacious dwelling, accessed via a columned entrance with striking wisteria-clad arch, boasts a timeless, tranquil feel.Here are an expansive memorial garden, a chapel with views to an atrium and rose garden, four bedrooms and plentiful multi-purpose space for functions of all kinds.Around the house and throughout the gardens is a magnificent collection of mature and exotic plants.Four of the lakes, plus a bore and seasonal creek, provide water for the gardens with their sweeping drives, while a small vineyard produces shiraz and chardonnay grapes.Expressions of Interest are invited.For further details and a coloured brochure contact our offices and Sunbury and Gisborne or go to http://www.memorial-garden.com.au/
