Privately positioned on 1,300m², this enchanting Castlemaine estate brings together a beautifully restored 1860s miner's cottage, an impressive barn-style pool house and romantic established gardens. Just a short walk from the Botanical Gardens, Mill Complex, railway station and town centre, it offers a rare combination of heritage character, lifestyle appeal and accommodation potential.
The Cottage – A Beautiful Piece of History
Rich in character and thoughtfully renovated, the original timber cottage retains the warmth and charm of its 1860s origins. Three bedrooms, a stylish bathroom, ducted gas heating and well equipped kitchen provide comfortable living, while French doors open from the lounge onto a private timber deck overlooking the gardens.
The Barn – An Architectural Surprise
Beyond the cottage, the striking barn-style pool house offers a wonderful contrast, with vaulted ceilings, polished concrete floors, Velux windows and expansive doors capturing natural light and garden views. An open-plan living space and mezzanine bedroom create an inviting retreat for guests, extended family or short-term accommodation, with a beautiful outlook across the swimming pool.
The Gardens – A Private Sanctuary
Stone and brick garden walls, winding pathways, established roses and layered greenery create a series of intimate outdoor spaces. The sparkling in-ground swimming pool forms a stunning centrepiece, while a lock-up garage adds practicality to this generous in-town holding.
A Property of Possibilities
Already enjoyed as a successful short-term accommodation destination, the estate offers exciting flexibility as a private residence, multi-generational property or boutique accommodation retreat.
Romantic, distinctive and wonderfully private, this is an exceptional opportunity to secure a unique piece of Castlemaine's history, with all the pleasures of town living just moments away.
