Description: Expressions of Interest closing Thursday 7th May at 5pm unless sold prior One of the most important properties in the Macedon Ranges, this 130-year-old homestead which was one of the earliest farms of the area, today rests gracefully within more than six acres (2.6 ha approx) of exquisitely curated English gardens on the edge of historic Woodend village. The property is a masterful union of heritage charm and contemporary refinement, where every detail has been thoughtfully reimagined to evoke understated luxury and enduring elegance. The superb grounds unfold like a living tapestry. Sculpted cypress hedges define the landscape, while perennial borders designed by Paul Bangay and brought to life with meticulous craftsmanship by Landspace offer a succession of seasonal beauty. Majestic, time-honoured trees including Oaks, Copper Beech, Cedars, Silver Birches, and a commanding Golden Elm create a sense of permanence and quiet grandeur while expansive lawns offer the perfect backdrop for family gatherings. The main homestead showcases the finest hallmarks of the Victorian era, with soaring ceilings, intricate timber and plaster work, and beautifully proportioned rooms that capture both light and scale. Four generously sized bedrooms and two elegant bathrooms provide refined accommodation, with the principal suite offering a whimsical window seat framing northern views, alongside a discreetly positioned ensuite that feels both private and indulgent. A series of inviting living and entertaining spaces lend themselves effortlessly to both intimate gatherings and grand occasions. A distinguished library living room, a graceful sitting room, and a superbly appointed custom kitchen featuring timeless Zimbabwean granite benchtops. Anchored by a central fireplace and opening through French doors to a sun-drenched rear terrace, these spaces embody warmth and sophistication. Upstairs, a light-filled office captures breathtaking 360-degree views, offering an inspiring retreat above it all. Complementing the main residence, The Cottage is a beautifully renovated two-bedroom caretaker's home, ideal as luxurious guest accommodation or an income-producing opportunity. The Barn, with its five-bay capacity, caters effortlessly to vehicles and equipment, while The Studio is an expansive, light-filled haven with soaring ceilings offering boundless potential for creatives, whether as an artist's retreat, photographic studio, or workshop, complete with a double garage. Exceptionally private, White Lodge enjoys sweeping northern vistas toward the Cobaw Ranges, enhancing its sense of serenity and escape. Properties of this calibre, where rich history and timeless character meet contemporary luxury in such a beautifully landscaped setting, are rarely found and always deeply coveted.
