117 Mollison Street, Malmsbury, VIC, 3446, Australia

This authentic gold rush home has been lovingly restored without jeopardising the integrity of the 1860's gem.

Australia in the 1800s was significant on many levels, not least of which was the establishment of some our country's most iconic and cherished homes of the era. Resting peacefully in Malmsbury (a village with as much history as it has heart) is this exquisite period home - original and renovated in all the right places.

A piano parlour in its heyday, now a gorgeous place to call home, this character-rich weatherboard perfectly balances its captivating heritage with an elegant touch of modern comforts. Important in the artful renovation has been preservation of those period-style features you know and love - think intricate rose-wall details, original hardwood cabinetry, cedar walls, and fireplaces that once roared centuries ago. Pitched ceilings and excellent light draw attention to the modernised kitchen and bathroom, whilst black pressed tin walls and white panelled ceilings add warmth and texture across the family room, meals, and sunroom. Keeping the three bedrooms and whole home toasty warm is a woodfire heater, and when it comes to soaking up the sun outdoors, you've got a north facing verandah or generous patio to divide your time.

On a lovely big block (approx. 1022 sqm), you're walking distance to the Macedon Ranges' treasured bluestone township. A VLine train and the Calder FWY connect you to Bendigo and Melbourne or ground yourself and enjoy life's simplicity in a home bursting with personality.
