Gracing the historic landscape of Beechworth, Tidyman’s Junction stands as a rare and timeless offering — an elegant period-style residence thoughtfully restored and extended to deliver country living at its best.
Originally established circa 1854 as the site of the famed Silver Creek General Store and Fountain of Friendship Hotel, this brick residence is steeped in history and enduring character. Behind solar-remote wrought iron gates and enveloped by mature gardens, this expansive property unfolds across a sprawling estate enriched by alpine spring water, abundant fruit orchards, and sweeping lawns.
The home’s generous floorplan is both sophisticated and practical. A wide entrance hall introduces high ceilings, timber floors and a warm, gracious atmosphere throughout. The master bedroom enjoys French doors opening to the outdoors, a walk-in robe, and a beautifully appointed ensuite. Three further bedrooms, all with built-in robes, ensure ample space for family and guests. The main bathroom features a classic clawfoot bath and separate toilet, capturing the home’s period charm.
Entertaining and daily living are a delight in the open-plan kitchen and dining space, where custom timber cabinetry, a Falcon 1100mm stove, Asko dishwasher and walk-in pantry cater to the culinary enthusiast. A formal lounge with inbuilt wood heater offers a refined retreat, while the expansive family and rumpus room — added in 2014 — includes a home office ideal for remote work or creative pursuits.
Comfort is assured year-round, with split systems, ceiling fans, European panel heaters and a wood fire thoughtfully placed throughout the home. Sustainability is central, with a 2.2kw solar system, bore-fed alpine spring water used throughout the residence (including for drinking), and three 5,000-litre water tanks along with an automatic irrigation system.
Outdoors, the offerings are just as impressive. A solar-heated, Aquatherepé mineral salt pool (10.3m x 4.6m) promises leisure and luxury, surrounded by established gardens, fruit trees (including citrus, cherry, stonefruit and nut varieties), and serene vistas. A substantial three-bay shed with bathroom, kitchen sink and mezzanine storage adds further versatility, complemented by 3-phase power.
The property also enjoys a Riparian Lease over approximately two acres of adjoining DWELP land, creating a sense of privacy and pastoral serenity rarely found.
Whether you're drawn by its rich provenance, its seamless blend of heritage and modernity, or the lifestyle it offers — Tidyman’s Junction is a truly extraordinary home that is worth your inspection.
