‘GRANLEIGH’

Introducing a rare opportunity to own a piece of history – a miners' cottage steeped in the tales of Daylesford's gold rush era, built circa 1890 by the hardworking hands of Daylesford gold miners. Held within the same family since its inception, this cherished home is now on the market for the first time.

Nestled within walking distance of the vibrant lifestyle cafes and shops at the heart of central Daylesford and just a leisurely stroll away from the picturesque Daylesford Lake precinct, this property is a true gem. Set on a sprawling 1728 m2 approx. elevated block, it boasts a rich history and a setting that seamlessly blends the charm of yesteryear with modern comforts.

The original front section of the property features four bedrooms, adorned with period details and a traditional central hallway. A substantial addition at the rear unveils a vast, double-height open-plan kitchen-lounge-dining area, leading to a generous study that can double as a second living area or a cozy retreat.

Completing the ground floor is a separate family bathroom and laundry, ensuring practicality meets historic allure. Ascend the stairs to discover a private parents' retreat, featuring a spacious main bedroom with a Juliet balcony, a walk-in robe-dressing room, and a luxurious ensuite showcasing a corner spa unit.

Step through the glass sliding door onto the rear verandah, where serenity awaits amidst mature, fully landscaped gardens that extend into the Hepburn Regional Park Reserve. Enjoy panoramic views, observe wildlife, and immerse yourself in the tranquil ambience.

Convenience is key, with a carport allowing direct access to the house, while a large double garage with a concrete floor and power connected offers additional space.
This property is equipped with modern comforts, including a gas log fire, a split system in the lounge area, a gas Renai unit in the study, a gas cooktop, an electric oven, a dishwasher, and an electric hot water system.
