Colonial Two-Storey Residence cc1873 - Casterton "Home Of The Kelpie"

This exquisitely refurbished imposing residence cc1873 has been lovingly restored by the owners to a high standard. The best way to see the quality of the workmanship bringing to life the grandeur of a time when the private residence was paramount to the prosperity of the local country estates in the early years is with a personal tour and inspection.

With four bedrooms upstairs, a sparkling new bathroom, toilet and ancillary room, this area is luxurious and is enhanced as you descend the two-landing return timber staircase to the ground floor. The plush carpet and the chandeliers all contribute to the stately ambience of this solid imposing property on the corner of the Henty Highway and McPherson Street.

The ground floor is spacious with a gallery sized area as one of the feature rooms. There is a modern kitchen featuring the best in appliances, a breakfast nook, two formal offices, the original walk-in bank vault plus an impressive bathroom suite with a full walk-in shower, slipper bath, powder room, dressing room and two new toilets and basins. This area has as-new carpets with high corniced ceilings, a total of four split systems throughout the property, another bedroom plus a warm wood heater.

Downstairs is ideal as a B+B, gallery or a prestige office, enabling a professional to work and entertain from home. With new curtains, light fittings, ceiling and cornice work, there is nothing to do but enjoy the rich tapestry of this elegant home.

Outside is a delightful private garden with trees and foliage in abundance with privacy assured. Vehicle access is from the side street and enables the highest caravan or motorhome to drive straight into the 15m x 10m high roof carport. The garage/workshop is incorporated in this area. There are additional toilet services outside. The lush garden is easy care and has sunny private areas to enjoy the garden and reflect in this peaceful area.
