The charm and uniqueness of the beautiful, Victorian style, clay brick and cedar homestead, Rosehill, will stir your imagination and your senses, taking you back in time to a place when all was right with the world. See and feel the texture of the original round clay brick columns on the verandah, then step over the threshold of Rosehill, a place where the sands of time almost come to a stop. Listen to the crackle of the open log fires, closing the study door as you pass by carrying roses, hand cut from the riverside landscaped gardens, to arrange on your dining room table.
Admire the superb Italian etched and stained glass and the warmth and beauty of the mixed hardwood polished floors as you walk through the French doors onto the slate tiles to begin food preparation in the rustic timber kitchen. Savor a glass of wine or two, with dinner in the formal dining room, then relax in the formal lounge or adjourn to the pleasant feel of the verandah in the evening, to reflect on your good fortune. When you choose, allow the character of the Victorian style bathroom and claw foot bath to relax you and get you ready to retire to the silence of the surrounding ambiance. Air conditioning and an outdoor spa promise some modern comforts to this splendid home.
Since 1856, the lush Mary River country has offered an ideal setting for Rosehill, Maryborough’s oldest home, built for pioneers, John and Mary Ann Eaton. Surrounded by expansive lawns and beautiful mature trees, Rosehill boasts river frontage and proudly stands sentinel on its 22 rolling green acres. The original and well-built timber sheds and a double timber garage add to the unique impression of yesteryear, with the added modern luxury of a 6m x 9m colourbond garage and an adjoining single carport.
Abundant fresh drinking water is provided by one 6,000 gallon and one 5,000 gallon tank, with an underground holding tank providing copious amounts of water for the surrounding landscaped gardens.
The majesty and splendor of Rosehill and its grounds are situated only 6km from town with private access, and is very well known for hosting exquisite weddings and relaxing Devonshire teas. A satellite cellar door, Rosehill has offered tastings and sales of fine wines from nearby Mt. Appallan Vineyards. ‘Rosehill . . . you know you’re home’. Priced at $925,000 L/N 4470
