15 Lyons Street

Newstead VIC 3462

Set in the very heart of Newstead with all local facilities at your doorstep, this period brick residence, c1860, was originally owned by Mr W.Ibbotson who later sold the property to the Methodist Church before becoming home to a Blacksmiths, a Milliner and a bootmaker in the late 1800's and in more recent times has been home to a gallery, B&B and private residence.

As you enter the home, you are immediately drawn to the Baltic pine floorboards and 11 foot ceilings. Off the central hallway is a large room which has been used as a gallery with original windows and comes with private access from Lyons Street. To the other side of the hallway is a living room with small kitchenette with an adjoining bedroom/ensuite. This has been successfully used as a B&B in the past, it can easily be utilised as a home office or private lounge. Another living space flows into the kitchen/dining with original brick fireplace warmed by a wood heater. You will also find a small original cellar under the kitchen.

Outside is a private enclosed garden along with off street parking. NBN is connected. You will find it hard to come across another dwelling with so much history in such a central location that offers you so many options.
