A white picket gate opens onto a garden that feels lifted from another era. Set behind hedging and a soft canopy of established deciduous trees, this c1890 weatherboard homestead, known tenderly as Murphy's Dairy, sits on approximately 5265 sqm of park-like grounds, backing onto a seasonal creek, with borrowed views drifting over the surrounding landscape. Just 1.9km from central Castlemaine, it holds the quiet of the country close, with town only a gentle drive or walk away. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms unfold across approximately 232 sqm of period and contemporary living, with a further 58 sqm of garage and studio space beyond. The home's gabled roofline, timber cladding and wrap-around reverse bull-nose verandah have a storybook quality, the kind of place that seems to have grown slowly into its garden over more than a century. Inside, contemporary artworks sit gently alongside heirloom furniture and hand-stitched quilts, giving every room a gallery-like warmth. Hellebores, lilac
