Last Listing description (November 2022)
Botanic and historic hillside grounds spanning 4048 sq. metres (approx.) create a peaceful park-side setting for 'Friedensruh'; a multi-generational pioneering family homestead of immense significance built in 1853. The oldest in Doncaster and the area's most momentous once-in-a-lifetime opening, this magnificent property adjoining and overlooking Ruffey Lake Park has been compared to the likes of Melburnian treasures 'The Hawthorns', 'Invergowrie' and 'Black Rock House'.
An outstanding example of an early orchard complex now poised for a remarkable new chapter in its rich history, 'Friedensruh' lies steeped in possibilities at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac. Retaining its evocative original character, this Picturesque Gothic-style residence rests in expansive old-world surroundings including a huge barn, stables and beautiful cottage garden with heirloom rose beds and a beautiful Cedar gifted by family friend and Royal Botanic Gardens' director, Baron von Mueller.
Rare to say the least, this landmark opportunity is a vestige of the German Lutheran settlement of Waldau and a much-loved sanctuary of the founding Thiele family that with its distinguished faade, captivating interior, numerous outbuildings, botanical garden and scenic northerly views to the 68-hectare park presents perfect prospects as a residential family estate, business proposition such as a Bed and Breakfast and other exciting initiatives.
A return veranda, arched hall and 3.75m ceilings introduce this enchanting home that's been sympathetically updated to meet current-day needs. A sitting room (OFP), three bedrooms and a living room with Cheminee Philippe fireplace form the original farmhouse that leads to a late-1800s extension of local-quarried stonework and a shingled roof including a study, bathroom, kitchen with European appliances and AGA cooker, meals area, scullery/laundry with loft, subfloor cellar and an enclosed veranda.
Complementing its exceptional parkland views, other features of the home include hydronic heating, split-system air-conditioning, security alarm and glorious period detail plus there's rainwater tanks, former-irrigation dam, carport, machinery sheds, geenhouses and ample car parking.
As Melbourne prospered with the gold rush, 'Friedensruh' was established beside Ruffey Creek. Today, embraced on three sides by far-reaching parkland, this gracious homestead and surrounding land represent an unparalleled opportunity to discover its riches, stake a claim in history and as welcome custodians reap the rewards. Situated in a highly sought-after lifestyle location close to schools, Westfield Doncaster, public transport connections and Eastern freeway city access.
