A north-facing bluestone residence with a rare live-work opportunity on Kyneton's historic Piper Street.
Some properties are defined by their architecture. Others by the life that unfolds within them. This remarkable 19th-century bluestone residence offers both.
Positioned in the heart of Piper Street, this meticulously restored residence combines original heritage architecture, contemporary interiors, generous outdoor space and a separate, versatile studio space, offering a distinctive opportunity to live and work in one of Kyneton's most celebrated locations.
Original bluestone walls, handmade brickwork and the historic staircase reveal the building's past. Once home to Mrs Coghlan's Grocer in the early to mid-1900s, it remains part of the rich architectural fabric of this historic streetscape.
Beyond the heritage façade, an unexpected expression of colour, texture and natural light unfolds. Partially double-glazed windows contribute to the home's comfort, while interiors designed according to the principles of Feng Shui, the home brings together historic materials and contemporary finishes to create interiors that feel balanced, welcoming and entirely individual.
Arranged across two levels, the residence offers bedrooms and bathrooms on both floors, providing flexibility for family, guests and different stages of life.
Two separate living areas offer space to gather, entertain or retreat, while upstairs, a private bedroom and beautifully appointed resort-style bathroom provide a quieter setting away from the main living spaces.
At the rear, the designer kitchen combines tiled and marble benchtops, integrated European appliances and a discreet European laundry. Its connection to the courtyard extends everyday living outdoors.
Beyond the courtyard, a spacious, low-maintenance rear yard offers room to entertain, relax and enjoy the privacy of home, all within walking distance of Piper Street's restaurants, cafés and boutiques.
Art and craftsmanship are evident throughout, including a hand-painted wall by artist Melissa Macfarlane in the second downstairs bedroom.
A RARE LIVE-WORK OPPORTUNITY
Separate from the main residence, a versatile studio space offers the flexibility to establish a business or creative practice alongside the home.
With the flexibility of its own entrance, the studio can be accessed independently of the residence, allowing you to keep home and work separate when needed.
With three-phase power and plumbing already in place, the space presents potential for a creative studio, gallery, wellness practice or professional workspace. Further possibilities for additional accommodation may also be explored, subject to the necessary approvals.
For buyers seeking to combine their professional and personal lives, this arrangement offers the freedom to work from home without bringing the working day into the residence.
Previously featured in The Design Files, the property has attracted attention for its distinctive interiors and thoughtful approach to heritage restoration.
Its Piper Street address places Kyneton's celebrated restaurants, cafés, galleries and independent retailers within walking distance. Beyond the township, the Macedon Ranges offers beautiful landscapes, exceptional local produce, wineries and a thriving creative community.
