"Highpark" came into existence c 1865 when two German immigrant brothers were granted the land in this secret valley for an orchard. Their many descendants are still in the Derwent Valley today, and this is your chance to add your mark to this homes long and colorful history. Accommodation consists of 4 bedrooms, (2 up and 2 down), an exposed stone lounge room,family room, formal dinning, a new kitchen designed to capture the era of the home, and a renovated bathroom. Lots of original features, including the wood fired bread oven, original staircase, and Baltic pine doors and architraves and blackwood flooring. There are useful out buildings, a dual carport, a large dam in the main pasture paddock and active spring fed dam for all the water you will ever need for a thriving garden and veggie patch. The gardens are starting to come of age, and there is a new patio area on the sunny side for outdoor living. Just 7 klms from New Norfolk with a real rural feel of being much further away. Great views to Mt Field from the front porch too.
