Bobby's Cottage, one of Newham's original holdings when settled in the Mid 19th century and owned until recently by one of the first settlers, the Adams family. Possibly the last parcel of land to be developed in the tightly held Village centre taking advantage of the position and views, an exciting next chapter ahead for the next custodian. Superbly located being a stroll from the General Store, primary school and Hanging Rock Winery.
The much loved cottage has retained many period features including the pressed metal ceilings and country kitchen, perfectly liveable with scope for improvement. Across the seasonal creek there is a productive hay paddock allowing options for all sorts of farming pursuits if desired. Those up for a grand design, whilst retaining the cottage in some form can take advantage of the many house sites (STCA) enjoying the mesmerising and everchanging views of the region's landmarks being Mount Macedon, Hanging Rock, Camels Hump, The Jim Jim and Cobaw Ranges.
A wonderful opportunity to own a piece of Macedon Ranges history in Newham, a town that still enjoys the warmth of a rural community yet is only 5 minutes from Woodend and under an hour from Melbourne by train or freeway.
