A statement in charm, quality and functionality "Lauriston" an established equine breeding and training facility in the Strathbogie Ranges, the horse capital of Victoria, is now offered to the open market for the first time. Once the primary headquarters of the Vinery Thoroughbred Stud, it has enjoyed substantial enhancements to the homestead and horse facilities since being purchased by the current owners in 2006. It now boasts state of the art equine facilities including a main 12 stable block, a stallion stable block with six boxes, horse walker, 800m exercise track, three main sheds and horse-friendly fencing throughout. Additional features include fertile soils, bitumen road access, and excellent water infrastructure with reticulated town water supply, a large main dam plus second smaller dam. The main accommodation is an impressive stone American Barn style homestead converted from the original stallion barn and constructed by an renowned local stone mason. Additional accommodation includes a three bedroom and two bathroom manager's residence and three fully equipped two-bedroom staff cabins. "Lauriston" has earned, both in its Vinery and Lauriston eras, a reputation for equine breeding excellence in both the thoroughbred and standardbred arenas and now awaits the next chapter in its illustrious history.
