Not often do properties of this nature come along and this one is a beauty.
The house was originally built for John Bell, one of the earliest settlers in the Heywood district around 1842.
It was removed from Mount Eckersley by bullock team and skids and was placed in its present position in about 1928 and currently sits on 3 acres.
Since then the historic home has had a renovation and extension – many original features have been retained such as: the original fireplaces (decorative only), bay window, pine ceilings and a pressed tin ceiling.
Included in the extension is a large cyprus pine, farm style kitchen that provides room for the family to prepare and eat meals with a seperate formal dining room adjacent. 3 good sized bedrooms,main with ensuite, a study, large lounge with wood heating, bathroom complete with clawfoot bath, powder room and large laundry make up the rest of this stunning home. Verandahs on 3 sides provide for ample outdoor entertainment.
The property is supported by numerous sheds, bore that supplies toilets ,garden and paddocks,2 x rainwater tanks
