St Arnaud VIC 3478

The living spaces in the home are many and varied. We have a casual living area adjacent to the kitchen that opens out to the superb alfresco outdoor living area. A very special space with magnificent slate tiling which overlooks the rear courtyard gardens - a more peaceful ambience you could not find. Then we move to the more formal living areas, with a very generous sized lounge room, (once the original bank chamber), quite an imposing and impressive room. The presence of gold and money exchange from the mid-1860s still resonates here, its quite palpable. Adjacent to the formal lounge is the fabulous and decadent dining room, heavy with a deep moody atmosphere, this is a superb entertaining space. Both these rooms feature open fireplaces and timber lined ceilings. Atmospheric and character filled, an entertainers dream without a doubt.

Open fireplaces also feature in four of the bedrooms and the study. Exquisite Black Japan timber flooring flow through the living areas, cosy plush carpeting feature in the bedrooms and tessellated tiling in the bathrooms. The home is supported by a double Dakin ducted heating and cooling system throughout the main body of the property and split system in the kitchen area, ensuring effortless year-round comfort. Additional notable features in this home are the magnificent light fittings throughout and the impressive plantation shutters in every room.

As we move outside you will find secluded rear courtyard gardens, fully landscaped with established trees and a majestic fountain in situ. The allotment is 1005 square metres, securely fenced on all sides with access to the double garage (6m x 9m with concrete floor) from Millet Street. Theres plenty of secure off-street parking behind high double gates with easy access into the home.

This is an exceptional property, an outstanding restoration that will take this unique home through another 100 years. Come and experience the opulence, grandeur and history that is Victoria House. Centrally located and adjacent to the Queen Mary Botanic Gardens, with the added bonus of being within walking distance to all shopping, Town Hall, art gallery and all the services on offer in St Arnaud.
