Set in one of Daylesford’s most sought-after pockets, The Barn is a local icon—an unforgettable home of rare soul and quiet strength. Once a working outbuilding, it has been reimagined with purpose and reverence, now standing as a unique home for those drawn to beauty, history and creativity.
Materials like vintage French windows sourced from regional France, rustic wood cladding, corrugated iron and exposed beams honour the building’s past, while its thoughtful, flexible layout brings a sense of flow and invitation across two generous levels. Upstairs, two loft-style sleeping zones with pitched ceilings offer secluded garden outlooks. Below, a second living area provides scope for a third bedroom or creative studio—an adaptable space that meets you wherever life is at.
At the centre of the home, an AGA oven becomes both hearth and heart—creating a kitchen and dining space designed for slow mornings, shared meals, and quiet conversations. Under-floor heating keeps things warm year-round.
Light filters through timber-framed windows, framing tranquil garden views from the large open plan living area where a full height chimney anchors the grand space. Outside, a private brick-paved courtyard becomes an extension of the home, surrounded by citrus, pomegranate, and lush, seasonal planting—a garden shaped to be lived in, not just admired.
Privately nestled, The Barn sits behind some of Daylesford’s most beloved establishments and the historic Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens are in eyes view just a short walk up the hill—offering green spaces and heritage trees. The Barn is a gateway to the life and rhythm of this creative, close-knit town. It offers that rare combination: privacy, presence, and a prime position in one of the region’s most celebrated locations.
With its layered history and undeniable spirit, The Barn is more than a home—it’s a significant and unique landmark, a retreat, a one-of a kind home.
