Pool days, long lunches and space for everyone – ideal for families & friends.

  • Healesville Country House is a beautifully restored 1901 residence for memorable group stays—where heritage character meets modern comfort. With five generous bedrooms, multiple living zones, a pool and sweeping bullnose verandas, it’s a standout base for enjoying the Yarra Valley at your own pace.

    A home with presence (and space to breathe)
    Built with grandeur in mind, the house features soaring 14‑foot pressed‑metal ceilings, oversized bedrooms and light‑filled living spaces that make it equally suited to relaxed weekends, family milestones and getaways with friends.

    Entertainer’s kitchen + dining for 12
    At the heart of the home is a generous country kitchen designed for shared meals and easy hosting. You’ll have modern appliances for effortless cooking (including a large gas cooktop, ovens and dishwasher), plus an original combustion stove that adds warmth and atmosphere in the cooler months.
    The adjoining dining area features a beautiful French table that comfortably seats up to 12—perfect for long lunches and celebratory dinners.

    Two separate lounges to unwind
    Enjoy the flexibility of two living areas:

    Upstairs lounge: plush seating, flat‑screen TV, DVD player and stereo—ideal for movie nights
    Downstairs lounge: an elegant, character‑rich space centred around a striking French chandelier

    Step outside to multiple areas for fresh air and views:

    Wide bullnose verandas overlooking the hills
    A large deck beside the pool—made for BBQs and summer afternoons
    A private garden courtyard flowing from the kitchen/dining via large sliding doors
    Sleeping arrangements
