A horse lovers' haven situated on 25 acres of elevated pastures, this harks to the bucolic past of the district and is a fine example of a Victorian Homestead sensitively renovated to reflect modern life.
With many of the original 1880's era buildings still evident on the property (including a cottage, stables, and lemon store), Mikado Park is indeed woven into the rich fabric of even the earliest development of the "Pakenham Riding."
The stately gardens and lawns create the perfect segue from which to appreciate this stunning home surrounded by mature European varieties further enhancing its historical significance. The main residence, designed and built by a former owner of the property; (Sir) William Putt in 1899, is a gracious double fronted weatherboard, further extended and renovated in Edwardian times.
Some more recent additions to the property include an inground swimming pool, a full-sized arena, approximately 13 fully fenced paddocks, 5 stables, a round yard, ample shedding, and a crush and loading ramp.
Located at the foot of Mount Cannibal in Garfield North with a beautiful aspect out to the Northern hills, this property is in close proximity to the Princes Highway & a direct commute on the M1 Freeway to the Melbourne CBD.
