An inspired blend of old and new
Listed by the National Trust and Heritage Victoria the property is an inspired blend of old and new. Barunah Plains Homestead is a heritage-listed property located 90 minutes from Melbourne and 30 minutes from Geelong.
The original homestead, which was designed by architects Davidson and Henderson, dates from 1866, with subsequent additions and alterations made in the late nineteenth century and in the 1900s-1910s.
Right in the heart of the stunning acreage of Barunah Plains sits the homestead built in 1866. The homestead is the perfect getaway for family groups, corporates or groups of friends to escape the city. The large circular driveway and bluestone exterior lead to a magnificently renovated and restored grand homestead. With 10 Bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and sleeping up to 22 people there is plenty of space for everyone. When you need to buckle down to work, a private study space is the perfect nook to help you concentrate.
Get active during your lunch break with a splash in the pool, jump on the trampoline, or have a hit of tennis on the court. A walk along the Warrambine Creek searching for the resident platypus is always fun and on the way back you can collect the fresh eggs from the chook house. On colder nights, sit around your indoor fireplace or outdoor fire pit with a glass of wine.
If you feel like venturing out further you can visit the nearby Great Ocean Road, a hit of golf at the Inverleigh golf club or dinner and few drinks at the Inverleigh pub. Head ten minutes further for the best steak in the region at the Beeac Pub. If you are after the ultimate foodie experience, award winning restaurant Brae is a 25 minute drive down the road or simply relax in one of the quiet areas of the sprawling homestead.
