  • Valehill House

    Vale Hill House is a unique property in the pastoral heart of Victoria’s Goldfields. Gloriously isolated on a quiet rural road, it remains just minutes from Ballarat, Daylesford, Creswick and Clunes.

    At its core is a meticulously restored 1858 stone and brick mine manager’s residence, now seamlessly encased in a high-spec metal, glass, and tile expansion - a striking fusion of heritage and modern design. Nestled in a gentle hollwo in Ullina, the house offers sweeping views across the Volcanic Plain, a patchwork of pastures and cropped fields framed by ancient volcanoes. The nearest neighbour is two kilometres away, reinforcing its sense of space and tranquility.
