A Fine Romance
Circa 1897
An amazing opportunity exists to purchase a part of Leongatha's early history. The Victorian weatherboard villa was reported in The Great Southern Star in 1897 as the most handsome private dwelling house in Leongatha...the structure is a model of good workmanship and a credit to the town. Originally known as Rostrevor and later, "Hylands", the house at 27 Turner Street was first positioned on the site of what is now the Leongatha Safeway store. It was built Mr Hugh McCartin, a prominent Leongatha businessman who served as Shire President and was also responsible for several major Leongatha developments. After Mr McCartin's death in 1924, the property was purchased by Sir Herbert Hyland, who also served as Shire President and MLA for South Gippsland for 41 years.
The house has been, and remains, a comfortable, expansive family home on its present site. Mid '70's additions of an ensuite bathroom, and the conversion of the original maid's rooms to kitchen and walk-in larder are 20th Century comforts.
With direct access to verandas on all sides, choose your own bedroom and living combination from the 6 big rooms on offer.
The gardens are a truly spectacular and colourful array in the meandering, cottage style, with brick pathways and rose arbours, and lawns for lazy days.
Positioned within walking distance of schools, shops, churches and sporting grounds, the central Leongatha, half acre site has all the history, all the space and all the features, presenting the perfect opportunity to add your own touches, and
become part of the history and romance that started way back in 1897.
