Venture into the idyllic countryside of Vaughan, and you will find hidden within a magical setting, the School House c1870s on 1.2 acres.
With the sounds of the Loddon River flowing by, the School House, now converted into a two-bedroom cottage surrounded by a beautiful private garden, meandering paths, established trees, and a planting of both ornamental and native plants. Pathways lead down to the river, and stone walls hint at ruins from another time. The weatherboard cottage features a wraparound verandah and entry into what was once the original schoolhouse, now the kitchen with dining and living. The country-style kitchen includes a freestanding gas cooktop with an electric oven, timber benchtops, and storage. Large period windows, a high cove ceiling, and timber floorboards hint at the past. A central hall leads to two generous bedrooms, a bright sunroom with external access, a combined bathroom and laundry, & a separate toilet.
Improvements to the cottage include a solid wood burning heater, two split systems, and satellite internet. The property is on bottled gas and tank water.
Externally the 4927sqm (approx) property provides a carport, two sheds, raised vegetable gardens, and three water tanks. Access to the property via 2001sqm (approx) of a Crown lease.
Please note - the bridge and ford in Vaughan are closed to vehicle traffic, so access is via Tarilta Road and Vaughan-Tarlita Road.
