Colonial Stannix Park, Wilberforce for auction tomorrow

Colonial Stannix Park, Wilberforce for auction tomorrow

Stannix Park, one of 20 colonial stone farmhouses in the Hawkesbury Valley, goes to auction tomorrow through Ray White Rural agent Greg Wall.

There are five issued contracts so a competitive auction is expected.

Selena Mazuran, from the FBI Fashion College, was seeking offers over $2.2 million for her colonial stone farmhouse at Wilberforce when it went to mid-2014 auction.

But there are now $1.5 million plus expectations.

The convict-era homestead dates back to the pioneer settler William Hall and his wife, Dinah, who got a 1839 land grant.

Selena Mazuran bought it in 2009 for $1.225 million, then adding 2,300 square metres of adjoining land in 2012.

The 20-hectare lot on plains between Currency and Howes creeks, near NSW's Windsor, now comes with pool, separate studio and stables, and chapel at 103 Stannix Park Lane.

Stannix Park had improvements done, overseen by Stonehill Restorations to plans prepared by Ian Stapleton and Clive Lucas. It has three attic-style bedrooms.

The steep 55-degree pitched roof is of jerkin head design. The coach-house has a keystone dated 1839 with the initials H.H., presumed to be Henry Hall, William Hall's son.
