Set beneath the granite face of Mount Alexander, this restored brick homestead occupies 50.2 acres (approx) across two titles, just over ten minutes from Castlemaine and Harcourt with direct access to the Calder Freeway. The house was built circa 1934, and only two owners have held the land for over ninety years, a continuity for a holding of this scale and history.The house itself is generous in proportion and rich in character. A wide wraparound verandah steps into a central hallway with timber floors, ornate plasterwork, high ceilings, and double-hung windows. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area is contemporary in fit-out, with a Smeg 900mm induction cooktop and oven, Miele dishwasher, stone benchtops, and considered storage, while retaining the proportions of the original build. A separate front lounge with a solid-wood heater and a split system offers a second living option. Three bedrooms, all with built-in robes; main bedroom with split system. Family bathroom with clawfoot bath, shower, and period-style vanity. Separate laundry. A mudroom and covered alfresco area extend the living outdoors.The LandThe 50.2 acres is divided across two titles, with one able to be sold off separately, a point of genuine value for buyers wanting flexibility now or down the track.
