Overview
31 Rollinsons Road, Malmsbury VIC 3446
Positioned within one of the Macedon Ranges' most tightly held rural landscapes, this exceptional 160-acre estate presents a rare offering where enduring heritage, sophisticated country living and highly productive farming infrastructure converge. Located just eight minutes from both Malmsbury and Kyneton, with rail connections, respected schools, cafés and everyday amenities close at hand, the property delivers a remarkable sense of privacy without sacrificing convenience.
A long-established landscape of mature trees, verdant pastures and beautifully curated gardens provides the setting for a residence rich in character and authenticity. Original Victorian features, including soaring 3.4-metre ceilings, ornate cornices and original internal and external doors, have been carefully preserved, creating an atmosphere that is both elegant and welcoming. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous living spaces are complemented by a dressing room or study, while a collection of fireplaces and ESSE Ironheart wood-burning stoves provide warmth and ambience throughout the seasons. Gas hydronic heating and solar hot water further enhance year-round comfort.
A substantial bluestone building extends the accommodation and lifestyle possibilities, offering additional living space centred around its own fireplace and ESSE Ironheart stove. Together, the buildings form a flexible family estate ideally suited to multigenerational living, guest accommodation, creative pursuits or large-scale entertaining.
The grounds are a testament to years of thoughtful stewardship. A picturesque recreational pond anchors the landscape, while extensive irrigation systems, illuminated pathways and gardens, and a commercial-grade outdoor sound system create a setting equally suited to private enjoyment or unforgettable gatherings. Beyond the ornamental gardens, a productive vegetable garden with raised beds and established food-growing areas reflects the property's commitment to sustainability and self-sufficiency.
An orchard comprising more than 60 fruit trees offers an extraordinary variety of produce, while three magnificent pear trees believed to be approximately 80 years old stand among the property's horticultural highlights. Equally impressive is the majestic English Oak, estimated to be more than 150 years old, whose expansive canopy provides a spectacular natural setting for outdoor entertaining and family celebrations throughout summer.
The estate's agricultural infrastructure is equally compelling. Fifteen electrified paddocks, predominantly comprising approximately ten acres each, are connected by an extensive network of well-maintained laneways and more than sixty gates, allowing for efficient and flexible livestock management. Every paddock is serviced by water, while a significant fertilisation program undertaken over recent years has enhanced the productivity of the holding. The farm currently supports approximately sixty Angus cows and calves and is equipped with cattle yards capable of handling more than one hundred head.
Supporting improvements include a substantial original shearing shed, currently repurposed as a recreation space, a large farm workshop with extensive shelving and workbench facilities, a garage and dry store, and an original blacksmith's workshop complete with bellows, vice and manual drill, preserving an important connection to the property's pioneering history.
An exceptional bore provides outstanding water security, while an automatic-start diesel generator capable of powering the entire farm ensures operational resilience. Combined with the property's established water infrastructure, productive gardens, orchard and existing energy systems, there is significant potential for the estate to transition to a fully off-grid operation through the integration of a suitably scaled solar power system, offering an increasingly sought-after degree of independence and long-term sustainability.
Rarely does a holding emerge that so successfully combines historic significance, lifestyle excellence and genuine agricultural performance. Set within one of regional Victoria's most desirable rural locations, 31 Rollinsons Road represents a generational opportunity to secure an estate of exceptional beauty, scale and capability.
