GRAND SOLID ELIZABETHEAN MANOR Circa 1866 Set on 1 Acre of private gardens with supurb views Once the Chief Gold Inspectors Residence, this property presents an historical time capsule with its Dutch gabled architecture and Tudor flavoured castellated bays positioned sensationally at the 'top of Castlemaine'. The elegant north facing façade is characterised by the beautiful Bay windows over looking the stonewall gardens where the original Carriageway once existed, encompassing the decorative style of yesteryear. The striking architecture of the interior is offset by the magnificent gothic arches of the front door continuing throughout the long central Hallway, leading on to the French doors detailed with Ruby glass and opening out to views over the town. Comprising 3 Bedrooms with Fireplaces (or a possible 4 Bedrooms), 2 with Double Casement Windows, large Sitting Room with Bay Window and Fireplace, and large Formal Dining Room. There is a spacious Kitchen including a Walk-In Pantry, a Bathroom with outside Toilet and a timber Barn / Garage housing the Laundry facilities and boasting ample space in the upstairs Loft. Situated on 4,254m2 of prime land, this property is testament to the quality workmanship evidenced in the construction of homes in the Goldrush Era. A splendid opportunity exists to restore this grand, and ever so unique property, bringing it back to its former glory, deservedly honouring it once again as one of Castlemaine's most stately homes.
