Starting life as a C1850's colonial cottage and then expanding in 1878 with the addition of the dismantled and rebuilt Robin Hood Hotel from White Hills, "Pine Vale" enjoys a superb colonial architecture and history that is totally on show today. Being used by Cobb and Co as a staging post between Bendigo and Elmore takes you way back in time.
The original double brick stables feature timber red gum block flooring, 4 horse feed bays, chaffing room, high gable roof and power connected. There is a 5 bay machinery shed with original hardwood log framing, a stand alone blacksmiths workshop, the original workers smoko hut complete with open fireplace, jig storage shed with paved verandah, chicken run , orchard and a set of original cattle and sheep yards still being used today.
There are five paddocks with much new fencing, 3 dams, a bore with a desalination plant in place and the picturesque Sandy Creek just off the boundary. The property enjoys excellent red alluvial creek loam soil ideal for breeding and fattening stock to cropping, viticulture and horticulture. There is house parking for four cars which include a double high bay park for caravan or truck. There is plenty of domestic water from the three tanks and a brick lined approx. 70,000 litre well. 5Kw of solar panels at a transferable 67c/Kwh are a great contribution to energy expenses and NBN is connected.

The colonial residence has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a sunny east facing sitting room or fourth bedroom, plus formal lounge and dining room in superb period dressage. The timbered kitchen includes an informal meals area which is next to the old slow combustion stove and open fire place. There is ample storage and bench space, Raeburn wood stove plus electric cooking with great views to the outdoors. The stand alone refurbished old creamery is now a diverse kitchenette-laundry-butlers pantry. A reminder from early times is the cellar which opens from the kitchen.
"Pine Vale" enjoys a superb Mediterranean micro-climate which is enhanced by the original verandahs and the summer shading from the mature surround garden. It is a true representation of the colonial mid nineteenth century with updates that have been sensitively completed to compliment the history.
