Originally built in 1863 as the general store and post office at Willanthry, this remarkable cypress pine homestead has been masterfully reconstructed in the upper Yarramalong Valley. Preserving the rich charm of its pioneering roots, the drop-log construction showcases an exceptional level of craftsmanship, rarely seen today. Featuring three spacious bedrooms, including an ensuite with a cast-iron clawfoot bath, this home exudes rustic elegance. The 14-foot ceilings, polished iron bark timber floors, and expansive verandahs to the north and east highlight the home's grandeur. The heart of the home, the kitchen, boasts locally milled ironbark slab benchtops and opens to the dining room, where a slow combustion fireplace and a historic Georgian 16-pane window create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The lounge centres around an open fireplace built from original handmade sandstock bricks, a nod to the building's history. Modern conveniences such as Starlink, 4G and satellite NBN internet ensure connectivity, though the natural surroundings beckon you to unwind and embrace the peaceful environment. Whether you're birdwatching, bushwalking, painting, or tending to the established country gardens, this homestead offers an idyllic retreat. Set against a stunning backdrop of natural bush-rock formations, towering cedar, and eucalyptus trees, the property spans bush acres with 7 cleared with dog mesh fencing.
