Maryborough Schoolhouse Village
Maryborough
So much more than a tree change!
Located in the heart of Victoria’s Goldfields region, Maryborough is close to Bendigo, Ballarat, Castlemaine and Daylesford.
Contemporary architecture is blended with the ornate facades of the gold rush buildings built in the nineteenth century.
In the compact central business district, the Bull and Mouth Hotel and the Old State Bank building stand beside a myriad of craft shops, bakeries and cafes.
Maryborough has entertainment covered. The local golf course and bowls club are only 1.5km from the retirement village where you can sit back and relax in the Bunkers restaurant or the club lounge & bar after a day on the green.
Tennis, swimming, water aerobics, shopping, bushwalking, fishing, dancing and much more are all under 1km away. The town’s library, cinema, Information centre, hospital and many churches are all within easy walking distance.
There is plenty to explore in Maryborough, with a wealth of antique shops, galleries and a monthly Sunday market. For those who like exploring rooms packed with antiques or losing yourself in a gallery or amongst craft stalls and fresh produce at the local market, the surrounding towns won’t disappoint either.
The recently upgraded hospital and health precinct and the establishment of all the major retailers including Coles, Woolworths and Aldi have invigorated the township to serve not only the local community but also the broader district and towns of Avoca, St. Arnaud, Castlemaine, Clunes, and Daylesford just to name a few.
Maryborough is 165km north-west of Melbourne or two hours drive car via Kyneton and Castlemaine on the Pyrenees Highway or via Ballarat on the Western Freeway. Public transport is easy with the train line to Ballarat and buses connecting to other regional centres and surrounding towns.
