The space
Luxury On Lyons is fully equipped with every luxury you could want or need. The chef's kitchen has a separate butler's pantry. There is also an espresso coffee machine and a pod coffee machine.
Croissants, jams, honey, butter, muesli, oats, coffee, tea and milk (including almond, oat and soy) are all provided for your breakfast.
A complimentary bottle of wine and chocolates are gifted for your enjoyment.
There are two separate living areas within the home, one within the main living area and the other at the other end, which is a quiet space to work or read.
There is a lovely alfresco area, complete with an outdoor fireplace. Sit and relax while the kangaroos feed nearby and watch the birdlife in this beautiful setting.
There are two private and separate bedrooms, both with ensuites and walk-in wardrobes. Each bedroom has lovely bush views. The queen-sized beds are incredibly comfortable, with quality linen and electric blankets for the cooler months. Each room has a reverse-cycle air conditioner/heater and ceiling fan.
Both bathrooms have walk-in showers. We provide quality shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and fluffy towels for your comfort.
The home is a five-minute walk to Newstead township, which provides an excellent cafe, hotel, bakery, supermarket (renowned for its bullboar pies), general store (with takeaway food), brilliant butcher shop (famous for its bullboar sausages), library, pharmacy, and post office—all within a five-minute walk from Luxury On Lyons.
The property is just 10 minutes from both Castlemaine and Maldon. Maryborough is 20 minutes,
Daylesford is 30 minutes, and Ballarat is 45 minutes.
