Set in Delightful Country Garden on 30 Hectares - 74 Acres Built in 1865 by "Brickie Pell" for Mr John Davenport Bromfield, "Elliminook" is built mostly of patterned flemish bond brickwork with roof of slate and iron. The now contemporary home has been designed around a magnificent central courtyard. There is a beautiful sitting room with marble fireplace and a formal dining room both featuring tall ceilings typical of the era. A west facing glass conservatory overlooks the paved courtyard and rosary. The large, light and airy country kitchen and living area has a Rayburn wood burning stove which is coupled to hydronic heating that extends throughout the home. There is an adjoining study and a butlers pantry. "Elliminook" features six bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. Two bedrooms adjoin a lounge and kitchen which provides an opportunity for this area to be employed as a self-contained apartment. "Elliminook" includes a generous wine cellar, mod grass tennis court, croquet lawn pavilion, large award winning garden, stock yards, shedding and six paddocks. Town water connected and supplemented by 125,000 litre tank capacity and a dam. It is conveniently situated within walking distance of Birregurra's charming Main Street, and only minutes drive from famed Brae restaurant. The popular coastal resort of Lorne on the Great Ocean Road is only a 30 minute drive. "Elliminook" offers a wonderful gracious rural lifestyle or the option to re-establish the very successful B & B business that operated for more than 25 years.
