Set on 2.98 hectares (7.38 acres) in the historic heart of Eddington, Balmoral is a beautifully restored red brick homestead that offers a rare blend of original character and contemporary ease.
A landmark of the district, this gracious residence showcases timeless elegance, space and serenity – just 15 minutes from Maldon and a short drive to Castlemaine, Bendigo and Maryborough.
Lovingly restored to its original state, the home's original features have been preserved and celebrated. A classic wraparound verandah – true to its era – encircles the residence, while inside, rich timber flooring, intricate ceiling details, heritage fireplaces and traditional glass doors speak to its history.
Newly added comforts, such as luxurious light fittings and plantation shutters, ensure the home meets the expectations of modern living without compromising its soul.
The flexible floor plan features two spacious living areas – both equipped with woodfire heaters – perfect for relaxed family gatherings or quiet evenings in.
The open-plan kitchen and dining zone offers effortless flow, framed by high ceilings and stunning views of the garden. The country-style kitchen features modern appliances, ample storage and direct access to the verandah for alfresco meals in warmer months.
Three oversized bedrooms offer calm and comfort, with large windows capturing the garden's leafy outlook. The main bedroom, complete with an original fireplace, walk-in robe, and a beautifully appointed ensuite, is a true retreat.
A central family bathroom, a full-size laundry with cellar access, and warm, neutral finishes complete the functional floor plan.
The grounds are every bit as impressive – lush, mature plantings, a formal garden framed by box hedging, a dam, water storage tanks and a selection of practical outbuildings including a workshed, cellar, and large machinery shed with second driveway access.
A two-car garage and generous driveway ensure space for caravans, trailers and extra vehicles.
This is a home of substance and story – a rare example of regional heritage lovingly maintained for the next generation. Whether you're seeking a peaceful rural retreat, a weekend escape or an elegant tree-change, Balmoral is a standout opportunity in thriving Central Victoria.
