Few city residences compare with the grandeur of this very special property. Constructed C. 1913 for its first owner, Mr L.V. Lansell and designed by renowned Architects’ Beebe and Garvin. With the closing of the mines and the social changes wrought by the Great War, “Lansellstowe” was probably the last “mansion” built in Bendigo. Of special interest internally are the fine staircases and the large bow windowed rooms. There is also a marble bath and shower similar to the one at “Fortuna Villa”.
