RENOVATED HERITAGE COTTAGE ON HALF AN ACRE circa 1854 Enjoy Castlemaine and bush-lands at your doorstep 45 High Street, Fryerstown In its 1800s goldrush heyday, Fryerstown bustled with a population of 15,000 although today it's a quiet village of 200, yet barely over an hour's drive from Melbourne or a 10-minute drive to Castlemaine with the express train to Melbourne. Built in 1854 on a 1937m2 (0.47 Acre) block, the cottage was originally a gold prospectors' home and then later The Separation Hotel; the low maintenance Victorian home with traditional veranda has been brought back to life through a recent renovation - the updated living room with new wood burner & split system, modern kitchen and bathroom, complements the original two bedrooms and formal sitting room/study. Located within a deep block set back from the paved road, providing comfort & peace, surrounded by mature trees, an orchard, and backing onto Crown land. Outside there's a double garage, built-in BBQ, private patio, woodshed and roo-proof fencing; it's on mains water (with extra water tanks) and mains electricity. The perfect spot for a weekender, downsizer or 'tree-changer', there's nothing else to do with this clever mix of modern living in a heritage home. Read more Lot/Plan No: /CP159377
