In contrast, the rear of the home has been thoughtfully extended to include a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. This area also features a large laundry and mudroom with an additional shower, and a separate toilet. Comfort is assured year-round with a large split system and a gas heater for extra warmth on winter evenings.

Beautiful timber floorboards run throughout the home, some preserved beneath carpeting, further enhancing its character and warmth.

Recent upgrades include an electric heat pump hot water system and a 5.5kW solar power setup with 20 panels—enhancing energy efficiency and reducing running costs.

Outside, a self-sufficient lifestyle awaits with established fruit trees, a chook run, and a productive vegetable garden. Set on a generous 2,024m² block, the property enjoys sweeping views of surrounding farmland and the dramatic volcanic landscapes of Central Victoria—perfect for sunrise watching and enjoying the region’s famed 'big sky' views.

The property also offers extensive shedding, including a lined historic timber woodshed, a large garage and workshop and versatile utility sheds. Two water tanks supply an alternative to mains water with a dual-use system allowing this home to operate on either one or the other.

Conveniently located just 10 minutes to Creswick, 20 minutes to Daylesford, and 30 minutes to Ballarat, with easy access to the Western Highway, fast rail to Melbourne, or a scenic 90-minute drive to the city.

This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated piece of history in a thriving and picturesque rural setting.
