St Clair, an 1882 grand Victorian homestead listing at Lake Bathurst

Stud cattle breeders Peter and Margie Mullins are selling St Clair, their 1882 Victorian homestead on 101 hectares at Lake Bathurst.

The mansion, located on Braidwood Road some 80 kilometres north of Canberra, has eight bedrooms and four bathrooms. 

It was built for the Badgery family, who left the property in 1904.

The property has had four owners since including the Coombes family until the early 1920s during, which it was known as Font Hill.

The story goes that the Coombes spent half the year in Italy and introduced the Italian influence of the terracing in the garden.

The Maple-Brown family took over from the Coombes for the next 20 years and developed the Font Hill merino sheep bloodline.
