Kalimna Park Estate is for those with a passion for early Australian architecture and design, who are looking for an idyllic and picturesque lifestyle. Spend time in nature, feel the peace and serenity and experience abundant space. A world away from the hustle and bustle, this impressive Edwardian

Federation home immediately welcomes you in. Designed with customary excellence by the renowned Melbourne architects Alfred B. Blakey and Ernest Crouch in 1909, this grand property is historically of local significance. Despite its history & grandeur there is no heritage overlay currently in place, offering full flexibility to its new owners.

The Edwardian country homestead is located in a rural setting backing a reserve. The property offers a substantial, once in a generation land holding opportunity on a second title, which consists of 25 subdivided vacant blocks of land, of quarter acre & half acre allotments. Premium vacant subdivided land this of size and scale so close to town is very rare, and highly sought after.

The expansive floor plan of the homestead lends itself to many uses with the flexibility to configure the home to suit your needs, with options for dual living, a separate guest wing or even on-site accommodation.

The impressive grand proportions of the living, dining and bedrooms are breath taking, with soaring 12 foot ceilings that create a sense of space and opulence. Intact period details of a bygone era ambiance include timber floors, fretwork, cornices, fireplaces with ornate mantles, leadlight highlights, wide skirting boards, pressed metal ceilings and ceiling roses. High sash windows and numerous glass doors connect light filled interior rooms with external verandas, taking in country vistas. Entertain family and friends whilst enjoying the garden and country views from the undercover veranda with entertainers deck.

The provincial kitchen has recently enjoyed a full renovation, with new impressive 900cm electric cooker and butlers' sink, which is complimented by a large walk-in pantry.
Enjoy the calmness of country living in the expansive established gardens, which are easy to maintain and embrace nature with its many sights and sounds of local wildlife. Majestic character trees provide a shady place to relax on summer days. The meticulously planned grounds offer stunning rural views.
