212 Northumberland Road Kyneton, VIC 3444

Set across approximately 13 acres on the very edge of the Kyneton township, this enchanting rural holding unfolds as a gentle love letter to the past, framed by sweeping farmland views and a deep sense of history. Home to three individual cottages and a collection of original bluestone outbuildings, the property offers a rare opportunity to embrace the beauty, atmosphere and romance of a bygone era. Loved by the current owners, the property has been gently enhanced with creative touches over the years, deepening the sense of romance it so beautifully offers.

Quinn Cottage:
Dating back to the 1870s, this evocative bluestone cottage immediately captivates with its soaring timber-lined ceilings and warm timber dado panelling. Two generous bedrooms are rich in character, each adorned with ornate mantelpieces, electric heaters and elegant chandeliers that echo the home's heritage. A cosy living room rests along the hallway, illuminated by a skylight and anchored by a welcoming fireplace, while the eat-in kitchen showcases two-tone retro cabinetry and a gas cooker. To the rear, a sympathetic 1980s extension houses the bathroom and separate toilet, complete with a deep clawfoot bath.

Rose Cottage:
Tucked behind a classic white picket fence, this charming one-bedroom rendered brick cottage feels instantly inviting. The open-plan interior is warmed and cooled by a split system, while colonial bar double-sash timber windows and soft periwinkle blue ledlight feature windows add a touch of whimsy. An updated kitchen with timber benchtops and new 900mm freestanding oven complements the cottage feel, and the bathroom offers a well-appointed three-piece layout with a tiled niche. Outside, a covered verandah and vintage lamp post complete this picture-perfect retreat.

Kookaburra Cottage:
Comfortable and welcoming, this one-bedroom cottage continues the property's timeless charm, featuring double-sash timber windows, split system heating and cooling, ornate fireplace surrounds with an electric heater, and a corner spa, an ideal setting for relaxed evenings and slow country living.

The original bluestone outbuildings, including a former dairy, stables and homestead, stand as beautiful reminders of the land's working past and offer exciting potential to be reimagined as additional accommodation or studio spaces (STCA).
The front cottages have been refreshed with new carpet throughout and recent internal painting, enhancing everyday comfort while honouring their original soul.

Recent improvements to external infrastructure, including new bore, cattle yards, water troughs, post and rail fencing, chook enclosure, along with bottled gas, septic and rainwater tanks ensure the property is well supported for its next chapter. Established fruit and nut trees dot the grounds, while three paddocks currently support grazing for cattle, sheep and horses, reinforcing the property's authentic rural lifestyle.

Kyneton is celebrated for its vibrant food scene and excellent amenities, including a hospital, the Botanical Gardens and a much-loved farmers market. Ideally positioned just minutes from Kyneton railway station for an easy city commute, the property also offers convenient access to Tullamarine Airport for those dreaming of a refined country escape.

A truly special offering, this historic holding stands as one of Kyneton's quietly rediscovered jewels where history, romance and rural living meet.
