The eight-bedroom de Kerilleau mansion, built in 1870, will be auctioned next month after about another 12 hectares – once part of the estate – was subdivided.

Governor Sir Charles Bowen stayed at de Kerilleau in 1873, when the Melbourne to Wodonga railway opened, commemorating the event by planting a Moreton Bay Fig Tree at the estate which still stands.

The property’s sprawling land also includes trees dating from pre-settlement.
]]> Gordon Nicholls of Stean Nicholls Albury will auction the home at 11am, Saturday March 13.

No price estimate has been provided in any advertising material, but the home comes up when a search for Wodonga homes priced up to $3.7 million, is carried out.
