45 Bailey Street, Amphitheatre, Vic 3468

Changing hands for only the third time in 148 years, Glenlogie House was built in 1876 by the prominent merchants Henry and Eliza Spiers, who supplied miners during the gold rush and Glenlogie House is a reflection of their wealth.  This grand home (47 squares under roof) accommodates an array of formal and informal living spaces, including separate formal dining, formal lounge, library/drawing room and upper and lower level family rooms. An extension was completed in 1984 resulting in a second staircase floorplan of five bedrooms and three bathrooms. The central kitchen adjoins a huge butlers pantry and features the original flagstones from the Spiers original cottage which they built in 1860. An array of original period features remain preserved throughout the home including (but not limited) to five original marble fireplaces, ornate cornice, original windows/leadlight and floorboards. The home features an ornate cantilevered balcony with serpentine trim on its North and East sides which is accessed via the original french doors and there is a lower level verandah on three sides. Among the historic outbuildings are the old stables, the brick water closet and meat room, plus the original underground brick tank. A more contemporary shed is connected to mains power and contains a hobby room which offers abundant storage. The historic gardens feature the original Elms & Oak trees and what is believed to be one of Victoria's oldest Irish Strawberry trees. The land is fenced into three well fenced paddocks, with stock watered via troughs and a catchment dam and there is a bore on the property.   Amphitheatre is a short drive from major regional centres such Ballarat, Maryborough and Ararat and is located in the heart of the popular Pyrenees Region, home to many internationally acclaimed wineries
