Circa 1850 Historic William Tell Hotel – A Rare Sailors Hill Offering


Once the bustling William Tell Hotel servicing miners in the 1850s, this remarkable and partially renovated property sits proudly on approx. 5378m² in the tightly held Sailors Hill pocket, just 1km from the Daylesford town centre. Rich in history and brimming with rustic charm, the home features an original Swiss Italian cellar, heritage orchard trees, and a beautifully crafted new kitchen blending old world character with modern practicality. With subdivision works 95% complete on an additional 1 acre portion and the Daylesford Mineral Spring Tap located directly on the block, the property offers both lifestyle appeal and exceptional future potential.

Adding to the picturesque landscape is a mature cherry tree, thriving beside the century old pears and heritage apples. The property is also a haven for wildlife, regularly visited by wombats, echidnas, koalas, wallabys and an abundance of rare birdlife, creating a tranquil and immersive natural setting.

Buyers have the flexibility to purchase the house on approx. 1.5 acres, or the entire offering of approx. 2.5 acres. Subdivide and profit, build on the second block or enjoy the full allotment as one expansive lifestyle holding.
