Allanvale Homestead lies in leafy surrounds close to the Pyrenees Wine Region as well as the wineries in the Great Western and Grampians area. We are 2½ hours from Melbourne, in between Ararat and Stawell, and we are in an ideal position for trips to the Grampians, Lake Fyans, Lake Lonsdale and the wineries in the Great Western and Grampians area.
The magnificent homestead was completed in 1921 for W.A. and H.M. Kilpatrick and designed by Harold Desbrowe Annear, a prominent architect. He was responsible for number of other prominent buildings at the time, including the Chapel St Bridge over the Yarra River.
Although the property is not as large as it was in its heyday, it is still a working sheep and cattle property and run by Bill Kilpatrick, a fourth generation family member, and his wife, Noeline.
