Built with granduer in mind this house has 14 foot pressed metal ceilings, extra large bedrooms and living quarters, and large sweeping bullnose verandahs encapsulating the best views Healesville's has to offer.

    Recent renovations blend the best of the old and new an entertainers kitchen with an old french dining table that easily seats 12 guests.

    The extra large country kitchen still retains the old combustion oven that also radiates warmth during the winter months. Cooking is a charm in this space with all the modern appliances you will ever need, with ovens, a large gas stove and dishwasher - you'll have more time to relax and unwind with a beautiful glass of Yarra Valley's finest reds.

    There are two lounge rooms for unwinding - upstairs with plush couches, flat screen, DVD player and stereo great for watching movies. The downstairs lounge is just stunning and has a gorgeous french chandelier as its centre piece. Outside their are 3 separate areas for taking in the outdoors. The old verandahs looking over the majestic hills, the pool and with a large deck is perfect for a BBQ and there's a secluded outdoor space in the gardens outside the kitchen with access through big sliding doors from the dining room

    The Sum Of All the Parts

    There are 5 bedrooms in total - 4 Queen sized beds and 1 King sized bed that can be separated to become 2 King single beds. There are two bathrooms, one up stairs with a beautiful shower, and the one downstairs retains the original Claw Bath that's perfect for soaking in after a long day at the wineries. There are 3 fire places, beautiful linen is included as well as Laundry with Washing Machine & Dryer.

    Maybe enter driveway from top down would be better. Couldn’t connect to Wifi. Tv remote didn’t work downstairs. Gas log heater down stairs in lounge room couldn’t light it. Wood heater in kitchen/dining area was Smokey. Face washer with bath towel would be great per person. Mattress in bedroom next to main bathroom not great. Hand towel for laundry toilet would be good. Towels were good. Nice bathroom products. Lots of mirrors and hair dryers. Mattress in main bedroom down stairs off lounge room very good. Nice linen. Lots of fire wood. Lots of crockery and glass ware. Clean and tidy. Tea and coffee selection was great. (Some Uht milk in fridge would be a nice touch). Outdoor cushions and throws were nice. Beautiful house and pool. Pool very clean.

    Enjoyed exploring Healesville and the Yarra Valley from this accom

    We had a lovely time with our extended family but there were quite a few things we all commented on. The crockery and glasses are on a shelf over 180cm high. A stool is supplied but there is no way most of the family could reach them. There are 2 average bathrooms and a toilet off the laundry. The house is very old with many gaps to let in spiders and insects. One bedroom was full of bugs which freaked out my nieces. There was plenty of insect spray provided though. The view from downstairs has all been blocked out because the bushes have not been trimmed enough. It’s such a pity. The whole garden is very over grown and makes the house quite dark with the big kitchen table not a very welcoming space. We liked the lounge room but it’s just a little gas fire in there. Anyway we were grateful for somewhere to stay so that we could explore the region. Healesville and the Yarra Valley is an amazing region and offers so many sophisticated hospitality venues and activities. We look forward to spending more time in The Valley.

    Was perfect for a summer holiday!

    This was the perfect property for us to bring three families together over the summer holidays. We loved the pool and it was used heavily as we had 3 days over 40 degrees when we were there. Great break out areas so that we weren’t all on top of each other. The down stairs bedrooms did get really hot because of the extreme weather we had. Would have been nice to open a window in the evening to let some of the cool change in, but we managed enough with the very powerful fans. We loved our stay and thought the house was just beautiful. We walked into town easily enough for a dinner at a local restaurant. Thanks Jack and Stacey.
