Noorilim Estate sits along the Goulburn River and features an Italianate mansion of luxurious proportions.

Designed in the gold rush era, around 1879, by architect James Gall for parliamentarian William Winter-Irving, the building features a majestic tower, elaborately arched verandahs, grand columns and ornate balustrades.

This high standard continues throughout the home’s 20 rooms and 10 bedrooms. The great hall has soaring ceilings, Corinthian columns, elaborate cornices and luminous Minton tiles laid by Italian artisans. A minstrel gallery once hosted a performance by operatic soprano Dame Nellie Melba.

The property has 300 established trees, including ancient Moreton Bay figs, rolling lawns, an Italian garden and a circular rose garden with a central fountain. It also features an ornamental lake and a boathouse.

With its own private tidal beach, this waterfront property designed by architect Darren Tye was completed only recently.

The approximately 891 square-metre property also includes a deep-water jetty and boathouse.

The home features a pavilion form, clean lines and lots of natural light. The floorplan, high ceilings and wide stacker doors create an indoor-outdoor flow that makes the most of its setting.
