Built in 1872 this Victorian Era house is situated 12km from Warwick and 80km to Toowoomba and sits on a parkland setting of 4.21Ha close to where the pioneering Leslie Brothers established their first station. The homestead is on an elevated position with commanding views across the rich Toolburra Plain farmlands. The 558 sq.m house is of double brick construction with two levels, with flagstone verandas front and back and two walled courtyards. The Homestead underwent total restoration in the 1990's and a new ground level wing with master bedroom and bathroom, a toilet, hallway and a country kitchen were sensitively added in keeping with the original structure. This comprised of the formal guest bedroom, cosy reading room, formal lounge/dining and family room on the ground floor. A beautiful staircase leads to guest accommodation of two open plan bedrooms featuring dormer windows and a bathroom and toilet. Inspect by Appointment.

Cedar joinery, high ceilings and beautiful fireplaces in the study and formal lounge add to the charm and functionality of the home. A large studio/craft room and laundry leads off the back veranda to a wisteria courtyard.
