Description: This is a property that cannot be replicated. Rich in history, scale and character, it stands as one of Kilmore's most significant and tightly held landmarks, set on an expansive 1,023m² approx. allotment and originally built in 1891 as the town's Old Police barracks. A home where every fireplace tells a story, this remarkable residence blends more than 130 years of history with modern comfort and a full, thoughtful refurbishment. All fireplaces have been restored, hardwood flooring revived, ornate archways rebuilt, and the exterior fully repointed, with chimneys and gutters comprehensively renewed. Ducted heating, 13 wood-burning fireplaces, triple bricked and insulation beneath the flooring ensure year-round comfort, while soaring 3.8-metre ceilings enhance the sense of grandeur throughout. Accommodation is generous and flexible, featuring four expansive upstairs bedrooms, all with fireplaces and three with built-in robes. Two upstairs bathrooms, a master bedroom with semi-ensuite, and an upstairs study complement the layout, while downstairs offers multiple living zones, including a formal living area, family room, and an additional living space that could serve as a fifth bedroom. The dining area flows into a spacious kitchen, and a full-size laundry with a third bathroom adds practicality. Two staircases enhance flow and functionality, original stained-glass windows add character, and a cellar beneath the home provides additional storage, easily adapted as a workshop or gym space. Externally, the property impresses with a massive garage approximately 10m x 7m, carports on either side, a garden shed, and a gazebo area perfect for entertaining. With the history of the home combined with a full refurbishment and renovation, zoning flexibility for residential or commercial use, exceptional craftsmanship, and rich heritage, this is a truly unique masterpiece you don't want to miss.
