Set across expansive grounds, our home invites you to relax, reconnect, and experience the very best of rural living, all just a short drive from the Yarra Valley’s world-class wineries, cafés, and trails. Follow the driveway through gated entry and tree-lined paddocks to discover a landscape that feels worlds away from the city. Set on approximately 12 acres, the property offers wide-open spaces for walks, picnics, and outdoor play. Enjoy a peaceful front yard fenced area with comfortable seating perfect for relaxed evenings under the stars. This space is securely fenced, making it ideal for children and furry companions to play safely while adults unwind nearby. While the backyard opens to panoramic views across rolling hills and native bushland. The land’s gentle slopes and open paddocks create a rare sense of freedom and connection with nature, a true countryside escape just minutes from suburbia. From the moment you step through the front door, you’ll be greeted by a large door and elegant entrance foyer with slate floors, soft lighting, and welcoming décor that captures the home’s relaxed country spirit. Every detail, from artful touches to ambient lighting has been thoughtfully curated to make you feel at ease. Step into a stunning lounge that blends rustic charm with modern comfort. The show-stopping double-sided brick fireplace sits at the heart of the room, creating a warm and inviting focal point beneath soaring cathedral timber ceilings with exposed beams. A gold chandelier adds a touch of elegance, its light reflecting off the framed mirror to enhance the spacious feel. Relax on plush grey sectional sofas, perfectly positioned for conversation or a cozy movie night on the large Smart TV. The open design flows effortlessly through to adjoining spaces, while natural light pours in from large windows, highlighting the craftsmanship and warmth of the timber accents. The adjoining dining area comfortably seats up to 6 people, while the fully equipped kitchen includes everything you need for easy entertaining from modern appliances and ample bench space to a peaceful outlook across the garden.
