Pavitra, in North East Victoria, is a classic Australian 1890s estate of 114 acres across 2 titles within sight of the Strathbogie Ranges and adjacent hills.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an historic property a family homestead that has been renovated and extended to provide country living at its most elegant, secluded and gracious. The homestead of four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two large living areas plus a study and studio, is set within an extensive garden with a lake, orchards, rose gardens and native and European trees and shrubs. It has 7 main paddocks, two large dams and machinery and shearing sheds. Shade and lawns abound.
Pavitra is an estate of outstanding natural beauty. The property is a sanctuary which gives physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. The only sounds usually are birdsong and the wind through the majestic stand of spotted gums adjacent to the homestead and the lemon scented gums which line the long winding driveway through the hazelnut plantations.
Pavitra is situated 5 km south of Euroa and less than two hours' drive from Melbourne.
