93 Sailors Gully Road, Eaglehawk VIC 3556

Step back in time and relish this treasure from the gold rush era. The twin-gabled stone and brick construction was built about 1873 as a home, and possibly a shop, for William Jane, a local farmer and greengrocer.
Obviously built to last, the residence today, is an eclectic blend of earthy, rustic and modern elements mixed effortlessly to create a home with a character all its own.
The enclosed original front verandah makes the ideal reading nook at one end with a flight of brick stairs at the other end descending to the basement level with his and hers studies (or music room). Accommodation includes three bedrooms, 3 with open fireplaces and robes; modern bathroom with deep, square-edge bathtub, large vanity, walk-in 1200mm shower, Italian made Gessi tap ware and rust-look floor and wall tiles.
Spacious kitchen meals area includes new kitchen cabinetry with concrete bench tops, 900mm stainless steel gas/electric range and two-drawer dishwasher while patches of exposed old brickwork keeps the character alive.
Ducted heating and ceiling fans keep it cosy inside and the lounge room boasts a huge stone fireplace, loft storage above and access to an open pergola for alfresco dining while a rear sunroom off the kitchen has French doors to the rear verandah and big backyard.
Established Silver Birch, Plane and Mop Top trees provide a leafy canopy over lawn areas retained by dry-stone and old sleeper walls with a row of Pyrus (Ornamental Pears) standing sentinel on the side boundary fence.
The block approx 948m includes side access to a double carport, garden shed, rainwater tank and plenty of room for further shedding etc if desired.
This unique offering is like history for the taking, again. It has the best of the past and present with personality, artistic quirkiness and character with a modern edge.
