BREATHTAKING PRIVATE HAVEN WITH THE BEST VIEW IN THE YARRA VALLEY

Creating a welcoming home to share with family and friends was always the current owner’s priority and true to their vision that’s exactly what they’ve achieved! Four weddings and a life well lived have been celebrated and many a birthday enjoyed in the stunning surrounds that are almost too beautiful to be believed! As you travel through woodland and emerge at the top of the hill, a particularly peaceful and private beauty unfolds revealing an elegant home nestled in immaculately tended gardens and expanses of lush lawn. Gorgeous views across the surrounding countryside including to the Dandenong Ranges merely hint at the breathtaking vista that greets you upon entry to this wonderful five bedroom plus study home!

Open sliding doors in the sunken lounge/dining, kitchen/meals and family room, to the terrace shaded by a grapevine and wisteria covered pergola and be awed by the unbelievable view before you! A patchwork of paddocks including golden lemon grove and tree covered hills extend across the Yarra Valley to the snow-capped Yarra Ranges. You may spot an eagle soaring high while the woodland at the bottom of the property offers natural habitat for echidnas, possums, wombats and kangaroos and the idyllic garden is a haven for birdlife.

Enjoy the view from a number of vantage points including covered sitting area at the end of the home, stunning “pool with a view” with covered deck and “pizza shed” complete with pizza oven and stone fireplace. Stone steps lead to an expansive lawn area with stunning view as backdrop, no wonder this home has hosted a family wedding or two!

Warm and welcoming, the home has been beautifully updated and is highlighted by cathedral ceilings and exposed beams and brickwork adding a refined rustic style. Connecting to the garden via doors in three bedrooms and all living areas, the home delivers a wonderful indoor/outdoor lifestyle.

Fresh and bright, the modern ensuite offers a light filled start to the day and, along with walk in robe and garden view, delivers a relaxed and private master retreat. While the superb main bathroom means family and guest certainly don’t miss out on luxury. The home offers a further four robed bedrooms including an ideal nursery next to the master plus light filled study.
