Little Hampton VIC 3458

From the Victorian Heritage Register - Little Hampton Primary School No. 1700, built in 1876, is architecturally significant in being one of only a few of the Education Department "80-type" timber schools extant within the state. The Little Hampton primary school is substantially intact and retains most of its original features. The school is also historically significant in being able to provide an example of one of the Education Department's first attempts to provide the facilities within which the new "free secular and compulsory" system of education could be imparted.

A gorgeous leafy position surrounded by century year old trees, this sunny generous relatively flat site in its tranquil setting offers many options for the inspired purchaser. Little Hampton, often referred to as the 'Jewel in the Hepburn crown', still retains its authentic country feel through and through with many of the local families having members of family that attended the school over the generations.

The original school orchard has many fruit trees, there is a full-sized tennis court with immaculate club house with adjoining lock-up machinery shed/workshop and undercover parking for one car that would make a perfect self-contained studio (STCA). Under the shade of the enormous Sycamore is a kid's cubby and situated by the second rear entrance is a wood shed.

Nearby Trentham is one of the Central Highlands most highly desired locations, home to acclaimed chef Annie Smithers' du Fermier and a number of great eateries, a welcoming town bursting with renowned community spirit. All this is only a little over an hour from Melbourne, 20 minutes from Daylesford, Woodend and Kyneton where V/Line services can have you at Southern Cross Station in about an hour.
