A weekender or a home base: period weatherboard on 1546sqm (approx.) with a studio, a guest house and a garden that keeps its secrets Taradale was built in the 1860s, when the gold rush and the railway filled its lanes with movement. That busy ebb and flow has long since settled.

Mica Grange is a place where privacy, scale and beauty meet: a 100.5-acre (approx.) landholding, 16 minutes by car from Castlemaine and 90 minutes from Melbourne, built around a three-level rendered brick residence, a self-contained function pavilion, and a garden with a documented history on the Open Gardens circuit.

A winding gravel drive, lined with golden elms, sets the tone long before the house comes into view. The land rises through granite outcrops, ancient gums, and open pasture, opening out to a valley view that runs uninterrupted to the horizon from almost every point on the property, with two dams set across the paddocks below.

Behind a hedge and a gate softened by roses, a period weatherboard home sits inside a garden that has been growing for years on a generous 3670sqm (approx.) block. Gravel paths wind between daphne, salvias and lavender.

Private from the street, this late 1970s brick four-bedroom home sits on 1505sqm (approx.) and has been thoughtfully brought forward without losing the details that made it distinctive in the first place.

There is a particular kind of stillness that settles over a garden more than a century in the making. At Pear Tree Cottage, it arrives the moment you turn off the road. A sandy driveway curves in under old fruit trees. Blossom drifts across stone terracing built by hand long before this was a suburb of Castlemaine at all. And there, low against the hillside, sits a Victorian cottage of the gold rush days, dating to 1853, its green corrugated roofline and cream rendered walls just visible through the branches. This is a property that rewards slow looking. Inside the original cottage, three bedrooms sit at the front, each framed by handsome period six-over-six windows and looking out over the garden. One holds an open fireplace dressed in a dark timber surround, its mantel and mirror giving the room an old-world formality. The third, more modest room, suits a home office or a quiet retreat from the rest of the house. At the heart of the cottage is a separate lounge with its own open fire

Muted blues, pale greens, and warm whites run through the home, set against original cornices and timber-framed windows that let the garden in. The north-facing lounge is generous, with room for dining at one end. A solid wood heater sits within a textured brick surround, and timber cladding lines the walls. It is a room made for winter evenings and long, slow Sunday mornings. The kitchen sits alongside. Stone benchtops, a butler's style sink and a freestanding gas cooktop with oven give it a warm, honest character. A tiled splashback and louvre window add a touch of mid-century charm. A timber-topped bench allows for casual dining, and a dis

The very first thing that pleased me was that Racecourse Road, though handy to the road to Metcalfe, and the Kyneton-Redesdale Rd, carries very little volume of traffic. The second, is that the home is situated along a well-maintained driveway and is sited with an easterly orientation. The home, which was built in the 1980's is of Daniel Robinson bricks, on a concrete slab with a colourbond roof. Before entering the main part of the dwelling, one sees that there is a very spacious study/office that would be ideal as a work-from-home situation, or as a 5th bedroom. This studio is conveniently situated and has an abundance of natural light. On entering the home one is immediately over-awed by the stunning view through the large picture window from the kitchen, turn around and there is another stunning view over the dam, which incidentally carries 10-16 megalitres and has been clay plugged to 6 feet. The centrally located kitchen is all electric, there is an abundance of cupboards, all mo
