Abbeyville (c.1856) is one of Kyneton’s earliest bluestone homesteads and is a rare mid 19th-century residence that seamlessly blends historic charm, modern comforts, and the serenity and space of country living. Standing at the end of a tree-lined driveway amid established gardens, it is surrounded by majestic Elm, Oak, Cypress, Bay and two magnificent Monkey Puzzle trees. Box hedging, rolling lawns, stock paddocks, and a picturesque pond formed from the home’s original bluestone quarry complete this serene and expansive estate setting.
The original bluestone residence offers three large bedrooms, each with open fireplaces and French doors, plus a smaller fourth bedroom or study. Formal lounge and dining with period features including high ceilings, a bay window, and built-in bookshelves framing the cosy formal lounge. An updated family bathroom, home office/studio.
Linked by a vestibule added in 2000, the original residence has a beautiful extension featuring stunning open-plan living, main bedroom with ensuite, conservatory-style sunroom, and summer house. The spacious lounge and dining area flow seamlessly from a well-appointed galley kitchen with a porcelain sink and Falcon dual oven with induction cooktop. Parquet de Versailles Oak flooring, extensive windows framing garden outlooks, and a charming wood fire enhance the warmth and character of this inviting space.
Modern comforts include ducted heating and cooling, wood heater, solar power, bore and rainwater storage, heated bathroom floors and towel rails, and antique light fittings throughout.
Outbuildings include an original shearing shed, machinery shed with float store, stables, six paddocks, and a full-size arena with mounting block. With proximity to Kyneton, this exceptional property combines timeless elegance, modern comfort, and rural charm.
