Built in approximately 1863, this historic Cobb & Co coaching inn is now an amazing residence with an abundance of charm.
There’s a story to be told everywhere you look from the dip in the original Baltic timber floorboards where the patrons stood against the bar (now a bedroom) to the trapdoors to the cellar.
The home is comprised of;
- four bedrooms, the master with its own open fireplace with marble mantle and surround,
- A grand living/dining room with 12′ ceilings, also with its own fireplace with marble mantle and surround adjoining the kitchen/dining room.
- A country kitchen with a separate butler’s pantry, modern stainless steel 900mm freestanding oven, timber bench tops and space for the dining table to sit in the idle of the room.
- An additional living room at the rear of the home (see floor plan) currently set up as a study complete with super fast broadband connections.
This room was originally the kitchen and still has the two inglenook fireplaces where they cooked all the food.
- A bathroom with pressed tin ceilings.
- Various outbuildings including a large barn style shed.
- An attractive mature country garden with fruit and nut trees (oranges, mandarins, grapefruit, cumquat, loquats, apricots, apples, pears, nashis, macadamias, walnuts) on a block size of approximately 2060.
Set in the beautiful hamlet of Eddington on the Loddon River, it offers a picturesque rural retreat or an opportunity to create a unique B&B or weekender.
Only half an hour from Bendigo, a comfortable two hours to Melbourne, fifteen minutes from historic Maldon and from major supermarkets in Maryborough.
