HISTORIC HOMESTEAD ON 48 ACRES

This home for sale on a generous 48 acres (20Ha) of land puts the new owner in reasonable commuting distance to Bendigo or the northern suburbs of Melbourne.
The house is solid brick, built over a century ago with an extension added several years ago.
There are two bedrooms, lounge, bathroom, a kitchen and laundry on the ground floor and two additional bedrooms and a bathroom on the extended upper level, while the building is bounded on all sides by verandas.
The imposing brick home sits on a slightly elevated site within the remnants of the established garden while all the room sizes are substantial with the timber-lined kitchen hosting a wood heater plus split system air conditioning.
The 48 acres (20ha) of pastured land is bounded by a seasonal creek on two sides and is suited to a range of livestock grazing or other farm enterprise. A lot of the fencing has been renewed by the vendor during eight years of ownership.
The property is only about 5km along the Northern Highway from Tooborac with its popular bluestone Tooborac Hotel and Brewery and store that is adjoined by the award- winning Merindoc winery cellar door and cafe.
Another feature is the virtually unlimited water resources as a town water supply main (not currently tapped) passes the property, but there is an operating windmill that reliably pumps quality spring water to a collection of household storage tanks. There is a 6m x 10m garage with two single carport catering for another two vehicles, a pigeon coop and the original tennis court outline remains but needs some restoration work.
This property would be ideal for a couple or family with employment or business interests in towns such as like Kilmore, Romsey or Lancefield to the south, or Heathcote or Bendigo to the north as they are all within easy driving distances.
