Twin Oaks – A Historic Emerald Cottage Overlooking Puffing Billy

One of Emerald's original weatherboard homes, Twin Oaks is an early 1900's character cottage built for Clifford Nobelius, son of Carl Nobelius, who oversaw the family's famous Nobelius Nurseries-once one of the largest plant exporters in the world. Brimming with history and nestled on 2133m² (approx.), with an additional 1000m² grazing lease, this enchanting three-bedroom home offers a rare opportunity to step back in time while enjoying a truly magical setting.


The twin oak trees, from which the property takes its name, were planted when the house was first built. Now towering beasts, these oaks can be seen in historic photographs from the Emerald Museum, when only the house and the packing shed stood on the land.

Steeped in Edwardian charm, the home's 11-foot ceilings, original timber panelled walls, leadlight windows, and cast iron lacework on the rear verandah are beautifully preserved. Sash windows (some with double-glazing) throughout flood the interiors with natural light, while a wood-fired stove set into the hearth in the kitchen keeps tradition alive. An elaborate fireplace mantel dominates the living room, adding grandeur to the cosy space. Hydronic heating with cast iron radiators ensures warmth throughout the seasons, while the meandering red-brick pathways and garden patio create a storybook setting for quiet afternoons.

Puffing Billy chugs past the bottom of the garden, a living connection to the region's past, while Emerald's Pepis Land walking trails and Emerald Lake Park are just a stone's throw away. This is a home for history lovers, steam train enthusiasts, and those who seek authenticity, patina, and the charm of a life well-lived.
