TWO DWELLINGS ON ONE TITLE.

In the late 1800's, Scots emigrant John Green, one of Healesville's pioneers and first Shire President, built Goorngalang on the edge of the then fledgling township. In proceeding years the family added a cottage to the property as accommodation for the bullock dray drivers and timber workers in the area at the time. As the township grew, the Green's driveway became Nagoondie lane and Goorngalang is now known as number 10-12.
This property offers unrivalled privacy, serenity and seclusion whilst being situated a mere 60 second drive from Healesville's East End,

Situated on approximately 2688m2, Goorngalang has been home to three generations of the one family for the past 56 years and is now on the market.
Within easy walking distance to schools and Main Street, the main residence comprises 9 spacious rooms with four bedrooms (master with ensuite and overhead fan), two living areas with overhead fans, a huge kitchen with meals space, study and bathroom, with large verandas both front and back.

Gas cooking and heating, reverse cycle air-conditioning and a 5,000 litre rainwater tank complete the home. Whilst in need of updating, Goorngalang is built on good bones with hardwood frame and has been restumped in recent years.
With very little imagination the home can again be one of Healesville's finest residences.

Next to the main residence is The Cottage. On separate gas and power meters and substantially renovated, it comprises six rooms including two bedrooms with overhead fans (master with a large walk-in robe), bathroom, living, dining and kitchen with gas cooking. Heating is by natural gas and a large in-wall air conditioner takes care of hot weather with a transfer system to distribute it around the home. A large verandah designed for year round outdoor living completes the picture

The property slopes gently with a large flat area, believed to once be a tennis court. It boasts mature, established gardens, trees and lawns – the present owners having been avid gardeners. Trees and shrubs border the edges of the property giving near absolute privacy from the wonderful neighbours.
In addition there is a circular driveway, a double lock up garage and plenty of parking for other cars, caravan, etc.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a fantastic piece of Healesville history with the ability to house parents/children in the second dwelling or perhaps develop it into short term accommodation
