Built in 1874, this brick miner’s cottage was initially a residence before being converted to a hotel in 1877. Trading as ‘The Jobs Gully Railway Hotel’, the hotel was converted back to a home in 1909. The original front brick wing, with 3.5m high ceilings and a fireplace in one room, feature timber-lined ceilings, original flooring and double-hung sash windows. With dual access to Job’s Gully Road at the side of this unique house, the large allotment includes two separate lots under the one title. Absolutely perfect for a buyer seeking a project with possibility, this property offers the opportunity for development, subdivision or restoration (STCA).

Tucked away, behind the bridge and off the main road, the property is
accessible via the side street and features a walking track past the front
and side of the home. The period detail is apparent from the outset, with the 1920s era fence (a section of the original Oregon timber balustrade
is still visible), the unique brick façade, and a mature Peppercorn tree all creating a character-filled welcome. The interior of the property features a central hallway with six generously proportioned rooms running off it. At the rear of the home is a kitchen/dining space and bathroom. A covered porch at the back door leads to an external laundry.
The backyard is split with a house yard and separate utility block. Two large sheds provide workshop space and undercover parking for

either side of the house. The property is fully fenced and private.
