Welcome to “Carfin”, a beautiful homestead exuding heritage elegance and strong connections to the early agricultural settlers of the region.
Built in 1884 with strength and quality craftsmanship, it is thought the first owners named the homestead after Carfin, a small farming village in North Lanarkshhire, Scotland. The connection to the early settlement days of rural Australia is charming and evokes a sense of timelessness.
As the settlement of Yarrawonga thrived and expanded, the homestead was amongst the few to boast views of the first trains to travel to Melbourne from 1886.
Today, this unique location, opposite the fields of the railway line is an attractive feature – it feels somewhat rural and yet is so close to the amenities of central Yarrawonga.
From the moment you arrive, there is an instant respect and appreciation for the quality craftsmanship and fine period features this home has on offer. The wide, wrap-around bullnose veranda, the stunning high ceilings and period lighting, the lead light glass and windows, the pressed metal walls and polished timber floorboards have all been immaculately maintained and preserved.
The home itself is beautifully positioned in alluring lush gardens, a setting that provides tranquillity, peace and privacy.
Wondering the garden, you feel like you are visiting a retreat! There is a perfect blend of natural beauty with cozy nooks and tranquil spots – thoughtfully placed benches, chairs and shaded corners. The soothing sounds of the trickling water in the garden fountain create a soft, melodic backdrop.
The addition of the enormous 4.5m swim spa and gazebo elevate the everyday opportunities. Swim for health and fitness, rest in the spa for relaxation and rejuvenation or simply enjoy the social benefits of the ability to invite friends and family around for a pool party and make the most of the Yarrawonga climate.
