A comfortable walk to township! The house is thought to be between 90 and 100 years old – the remnant picture rails/ ceiling rose/ cornices and the bakelite door handles in bathroom indicate mid- to late-1920s.

Land
• The property is 1 acre
• It is roughly landscaped in 3 separate areas: home and garden; orchard, vegetables and chickens; and the bushland/ parkland areas which were created from scratch and planted with native trees and shrubs, mostly local species
• The orchard trees include: apples, pears, plums, peaches, apricots, quince, mulberry, olives, cherry, and almonds
• The property backs onto crown land so there will be no development to the rear of the property.
Prior to European settlement, this broader area would have been a productive area for the Dja Dja Wurrung peoples – with its mostly flat grassy plains, pockets of patchy woodlands/
