House description

“"The Lodge" Clunes”

The Lodge @ Clunes was originally built in 1904 as the station master’s residence in Williamstown, this lovingly restored grand Victorian residence is so much more than a cottage, perched high over the picturesque and historic township of Clunes.


From the moment you first approach The Lodge @ Clunes via the circular crushed quartz driveway around the stately flag pole and birch trees you realize that is no ordinary home, this is something unique and very special with a style and sense of history that can’t be manufactured.


The beautifully handcrafted front door with intricate stained glass panels leads you inside to relish in a sense of grandeur from a bygone era. Her original period features are all intact and lovely restored. These range from immense 14-foot ceilings to stainglass windows and doors, wooden floors, ceiling roses, intricate, cornices to cast iron fireplaces, and lacework on the front verandah.



Once inside three generous sized bedrooms lead off the extra-wide hallway, all with unique décor and evocative names such as the Romeo and Julliette Suite to the regal Lincoln Bedroom.


There is two-way access to the well-appointed master bathroom, which comprises an extra deep slipper bath to relax and rejuvenate, a separate, and an original chandelier. A second separate shower room has been cleverly positioned to accommodate extra house members.


Inside and out, this has home has been designed to be enjoyed and shared while you entertain your family and friends. The farmhouse kitchen, which captures both morning sun and spectacular sunsets, opens out onto the lovely North East deck where you can enjoy a sundowner whilst taking in the sweeping views across old rooftops of one Victoria’s most divine and idyllic townships. Clunes a creative hub and local cafes, pubs, general, an IGA are but a short 5 minutes walk away. Friday nights in town feature drinks in the gallery by the open fire where locals enthusiastically welcome new and old alike.


Retiring inside, you can relax in the Empire Library, a stately living area boasting a beautifully handcrafted mantelpiece and cast-iron fireplace. Step outside into the garden and you will find a recently completed outdoor entertaining area around a truly sensational firepit where you can sit and relax with friends under the rusted ironwork dome planted with ornamental grape, which will provide lovely shade in summer.


Complete with an established garden, also transplanted from Williamstown, that features heritage roses, perennials, an apple tree, and dozens of poplars and olive trees that should be bearing fruit in the next season or two.
