'Finsbury House' Lakeside Estate
Welcome to "Finsbury House," an exquisite lakeside retreat nestled on a lush 26-acre estate on the tranquil outskirts of Kilmore, just a little over an hour north of Melbourne's bustling CBD. This magnificent Hamptons-inspired countryside estate, envisioned and brought to life by the renowned architect and Order of Australia recipient Philip Cox, offers a blend of luxurious living and natural charm.
Currently serving as both a bed and breakfast and a venue for retreats, Finsbury House boasts an impressive array of amenities and accommodations. With six bedrooms under the main roof and two additional guest bedrooms, this sprawling estate comfortably caters for up to 24 guests. The heart of the home features a large living room with a cozy wood fire and soaring cathedral ceilings, creating a spacious yet intimate atmosphere.
Above, an upper mezzanine, currently utilized as a cocktail bar and wine room, offers a versatile space perfect for a work-from-home office or an elegant entertaining area. A secluded study provides a quiet retreat for work or leisure, while the adjoining chef's kitchen and dining room are designed for grand entertaining, leading out to a beautifully manicured lawned courtyard and wisteria-draped pergolas.
The grandeur extends to the master suite, complete with its own private bathroom, walk-in robe, and direct access to the northern verandah, offering serene views and a perfect spot for morning reflections or evening relaxation.
The estate's grounds are a testament to nature's beauty, with a 5-acre private lake, home to black swans, mountain ducks, and a rich aquatic life, offering an idyllic setting for rowing or simply enjoying the tranquil waters from the private jetty. Outdoor activities abound with a 12m heated in-ground swimming pool, a trampoline, basketball court and expansive lawns inviting everything from a leisurely game of cricket to peaceful strolls. The property also features a fenced-in vegetable garden and an orchard, alongside a shearing and machinery shed, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Springfield hills and the surrounding farmland.
Located in the rapidly emerging destination of Kilmore, on the edge of the Macedon Ranges, Finsbury House is conveniently positioned within easy reach of local markets, race days, sporting facilities, and highly esteemed educational institutions. With Kilmore East Train Station just 8.1km away, Wallan Station 15km, Melbourne Airport a 45-minute drive, and Melbourne CBD just over an hour away, this estate offers both seclusion and accessibility.
Finsbury House is not just a home; it's a lifestylea rare opportunity to own a piece of paradise, blending sophisticated living with the purest joys of nature and tranquillity. Experience the enchantment of lakeside living at its finest, where every day feels like a retreat from the ordinary.
