Mount Olinda Estate Lilydale Auction Notice - Vintage Australian Real Estate

"90 Acres of Valuable Freehold Land".

The original Lithograph was printed in 1888 by Troedel & Co. Lith in Melbourne, advertising the land subdivision sale in Lilydale.

19th Century Real-Estate Agents had a way with words.....

"This magnificent estate overlooks and adjoins that beautiful situated and rapidly improving township of Lilydale, distant 20 miles from Melbourne, and within half-a-mile from the Lilydale Railway Station, and within easy distance of and on the direct route to those favourite tourists' and holiday resorts, Fernshawe, Marysville, Healesville, Launching Place, Christmas Hills Warburton, &c.

For Capitalists this is an opportunity which should not be neglected of acquiring land in this heart of fertile and well-watered district, where the value of property is increasing by "leaps and bounds."

Those seeking cool summer residences, desirous of escaping the hot winds and dust of the city, will here find a climate which, for mildness and evenness of temperature, cannot be surpassed, the nights being always cool.

The grandeur and variety of the scenery of this charming district is unequalled in any part of Victoria and is known to every Victorian lover of the picturesque, and from no spot in the locality can more varied and lovely views be obtained than from this estate, over looking as it does the pretty Township of Lilydale, the rich flats of the River Yarra and Olinda Valley, crossed by Mount Juliet and Wood's Point Ranges."

The corner of Helena and Queen Street today.. very different compared to how it was sold in 1888.
