105 Barry St, Romsey VIC 3434

Romsey is on the doorstep to wonderful wineries and farmers markets, some of the many attractions of the Macedon Ranges. With a 30 minute drive to Melbourne Airport and a 10 minute drive to Clarkefield Station, this is country living with everything you need.

A rare opportunity to purchase a property walking distance from the many amenities Romsey township has to offer. The property can also be subdivided for future use (STCA).

“What the property offers” (property perspective)

Distinctive period features unite the home, from the tallest of ceilings with elaborate cornices and roses to beautiful stained glass windows. This solid red brick residence hosts a stunning display of character from the onset, with a superb wide entrance hallway, decorative fireplaces throughout and original pressed metal ceiling in the dining room.

The exceptional scale of the floorplan allows for both formal and informal living and entertaining zones, including an expansive family room and separate casual meals area, all of which are perfectly complemented by a well-appointed timber kitchen with comprehensive cabinetry and breakfast bar.

With abundant natural light cascading from the charming sash windows, three principal bedrooms are heated by LVI wall radiators and underpinned by polished hardwood floors, with a home office that could be easily reconfigured as a fourth bedroom.

Front and rear verandahs make for enticing alfresco seating areas, whilst the surrounding grounds host an array of citrus, fruit and ornamental trees, including a 100 year old oak tree. The property boasts extensive shedding, including a large workshop with concrete flooring, 3 phase power and room for storing up to ten vehicles, two additional garden/storage sheds and three water tanks.

“What you love about the property” (vendor perspective)

The beauty and elegance of the heritage features throughout the house and the expansive gardens. ‘HOUSTON’ has such an interesting history with only 3 past owners and very few Victorian homes like this remain in Romsey. Take a short stroll to the local cafes and restaurants or enjoy the running/walking tracks along 5-mile creek, all the way up to Lancefield. The pleasure of working from home surrounded by lovely greenery outside each window, or the easy access to public transport for work and visits to the CBD. The large shed/workshop is also perfect for operating a small business, an art studio, woodworking or a car enthusiast – the possibilities are endless.
