46 Millers Lane, Lancefield, Vic 3435

Steeped in history and timeless charm, Parkview (circa 1860) is a captivating homestead perched gracefully on a gentle rise, perfectly positioned to take in the rolling countryside beyond. Originally part of a much larger landholding and first home to the Miller family, this remarkable property has been tightly held, passing through just five custodians in its storied lifetime. Your arrival is nothing short of enchanting, majestic, established trees frame a sweeping driveway that sets the tone for what lies ahead.

The home’s twin-gabled Victorian roofline stands as an iconic nod to classic Australian architecture, while a returning verandah adorned with ornate cornicing and tessellated tiles wraps the residence in elegance and character. Set across approximately 2.5 acres (10,000m2) of beautifully established, park-like grounds, the gardens offer a series of delightful spaces to explore hedged enclaves, secluded corners, and meandering paths that evoke a sense of romance, tranquillity, and a connection to a bygone era. You’ll even discover the original brick-lined well, still producing crystal clear water. 

Inside, the residence is rich in period detail and generous in scale. Four well-proportioned bedrooms, three feature open fireplaces, and charming period-style built-in robes are complemented by hallmark features of the era, including a wide central hallway, soaring 14-foot ceilings, intricate decorative cornices, heavy skirting boards, and grand door frames with classic sidelights. Much of the significant restoration work has already been completed, with updates to stumps, wiring, roofing, and plaster, allowing the next owner to focus on adding their own vision and finishing touches.

A sympathetic extension in keeping with the home’s heritage complete with bluestone foundations and windowsills blends seamlessly with the original structure, while updated timber flooring and a refreshed kitchen enhance everyday functionality. Move in comfortably as is, further enhance over time, or explore the potential for an inspired venture (STCA), whether as a boutique accommodation offering or a unique lifestyle opportunity. 

Just moments to Lancefield township and easy access to Melbourne, Parkview is a rare and romantic offering, ready to begin its next chapter.
