Robert,
We also have an old house. Ours was built in the 1880's but I'm not sure which year. Tony Luke from Adelaide came over in 1999 and we refurbished it over the next 9 months. We rent it out to holiday makers as we live right next door on the same block. "Grandma's House" as it is known, is very popular. It is the original ferrymans house for the ferry to Raymond Island from Paynesville 120 years ago. R.Island is 100 metres away. The Ferry now is about 3km to the south. We had to re-roof about 1/2 of the house and all the rear skilion. Thats why I am interested.
Regards Rick
