2982 Pyrenees Highway, Newstead VIC 3462

An original brick, heritage home built in the late 1800s complete with the blacksmith's barn that sits just outside Newstead on a 1.6acre block, surrounded by farmland.
Hidden from view with high hedges facing the road, the home with a wraparound verandah, has been extended over the years to now provide a spacious residence packed with period features. Enter from the front door with bedrooms on either side, both with open fire places high ceilings and Baltic pine floors, then step into the dining room/living room with another OFP. There's a bathroom and third bedroom with ornate ceiling and external door; at the back of the house is the huge gallery/lounge with polished timber floorboards, fire place and large wine cellar, and kitchen with Aga/Rayburn stove and walk in pantry.
The barn, which completes the package, has been cleverly brought back to life; the roof has been completely rebuilt, the slab floor re-poured and there are two new double timber doors. This would make a stunning studio, workshop or extra accommodation.
Outside, the formal gardens surround the house, with hedges, fruit trees and raised beds, and beyond is the level paddock; perfect for a pony or extending the garden – your chance to own a piece of history.
