A wonderful example of a bygone era. This beautifully maintained historic cottage is set on approx. 4 3/8 acres (17,720m2) of open pasture, located a few minutes from Newstead and only 10 minutes to Castlemaine.
The original stone and brick cottage consists of two bedrooms, lounge and kitchen, and features timber floorboards and ceiling, an open fireplace and original wood stove. A solar panel atop the restored roof provides lighting.
Covered verandahs at the front and rear of the house are perfectly positioned to take in the abundant local flora and fauna. Nestled amongst established fruit trees and backed by state forest, the cottage is set on a parcel of three Crown Allotments. The mains power and water are not connected but pass the front of the property.
A perfect respite from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
*To note Water Closet is drop box toilet and wash bowl for cleanliness.
