ORIGINAL HOMESTEAD ON 14 GLORIOUS ACRES
The history of Glenlyon ” dates back well over a century to John McGregor, a dairy farmer and the founding member/chairman of Norco. The grand homestead was originally built in 1882 on 180 acres from timber milled from the property itself.

Over the ensuing years the pastoral property was subdivided and the homestead is now situated on more manageable 5.71 hectares, all useable and ideal for horses, cattle or crops. The historical property is well suited to a unique bed and breakfast or farm stay or an idyllic lifestyle home for the family.

The traditional attributes and character of the homestead have been well maintained to ensure the steeped history is passed down from generation to generation and the authentic point of difference is underlined. Enjoy 15 ft. ceilings, 5 inch timber floorboards, ornate cornice and ceiling roses, mantled fireplaces, heritage bathroom, timber kitchen, formal and informal dining, formal living room, sitting room, large home office or study and customary wrap around verandas.

Depending on your needs the bedroom/room options can be mixed or matched. The master bedroom includes ensuite and there is a second bedroom, smaller third bedroom or sewing room and there is a top floor double peaked bedroom alternative that sleeps 6 single beds very comfortably with additional room for small lounge.

A large semi detached, air conditioned studio could easily be transformed into a self-contained granny flat or guest house and is currently set up as the best man cave in the district including snooker table, bar, lounge and flat screen TV…. ahhhh. There is a 3 bay carport storage shed, workshop and horse shelter. The home was refurbished by the current owners including re-roofed, re-wired, re-lined internally and added solar hot water.
