Winton Cottage is a sympathetically restored Victorian residence dating back to the vibrant days of the 19th-century gold rush. Nestled in the historic town of Maldon, this charming cottage is conveniently located just 90 minutes from Melbourne.


This elegant home is perfect for couples seeking a romantic getaway or groups of friends wanting to explore the area. Inside you’ll find a spacious living area with a dining table, a comfortable leather lounge suite, and a cosy wood-burning fireplace. The property features central heating and cooling throughout.

Winton Cottage is just a short stroll from Maldon’s historic main street. Surrounded by picturesque cottage gardens, mature trees, and birdlife, the property offers two terraces and a gas BBQ — ideal for alfresco dining on warm evenings.
