Neighbouring Sherbrooke Forest's sensational walking trails is this magnificent 5 acre homestead steeped in history and style. Situated only 50 minutes from Melbourne CBD and immersed in sensational gardens, this property is a rare opportunity in the right location.
From the first moment through the gated entry, the clear vision of the current homeowners will impress as their experience with significant trees and parterre kitchen garden demonstrates a sense of care rarely shown to a property of this scale. The central laneway leads to the original carriage house and stables, now used as workshops and hen house, the terraced lawns are admiringly named the Chestnut and Oak Lawns, and the significant trees including Bhutan Cypress, Tulip Tree, and Bunya Pine now hold pride of place for family gatherings year round.
At the heart of 'Fairmont' is the original Arts & Crafts farmhouse ripe for restoration or redevelopment (STCA) and rich with period features including high ceilings, wide floorboards, open wood fires, and picture windows. From the mudroom entry into the generous kitchen with breakfast nook, this home is an invitation for family living, while the open plan lounge, dining, family room, and reading room capture garden views at every turn.
