1489-1491 Mount Dandenong Tourist Road, Olinda VIC 3788

“Ardoch” Circa 1930 - Gorgeous Character Home with Multigenerational Appeal

Radiating charm, the home is introduced by a coveted horseshoe driveway and well positioned behind century old gardens . A wrap verandah makes a charming first impression with leadlight doors inviting you to step inside.

Unfolding is a lavish floorplan that spans multiple levels. Gleaming polished floors underfoot add timeless elegance and an open fire in the lounge enchants with its roar long into cold winter nights.

A spectacular arched window and window seat frame the magnificent garden outlook from your place at the dining table just a conversation away from the revamped kitchen with 900mm stainless steel cooker and a luxe walk-in pantry overlooking a casual meals zone with French doors to the verandah. Gaze up at the living zone's exquisite ceiling plasterwork or gaze out to the gardens.
Accommodation is vast and flexible featuring an upstairs bedroom wing inclusive of three bedrooms (or two and a retreat) with a master size room with ambient gas log fire serviced by a family bathroom. Downstairs resides the decadent master bedroom privately housed with ensuite effect to a gleaming 2-way renovated bathroom plus home office/6th bedroom.

Upstairs from the garden is a retreat/rumpus/games room where the teens can turn the volume up without disturbing a soul or an older child could happily camp out here with their own space warmed by a wood fire.

Furthermore, a rear extension accessed via a vestibule is fully self-contained haven and well set up as multigeneration or guest accommodation space.
And if you still require more space an enclosed verandah is now a sunroom/gym or additional home office space to utilise as you desire.

The home’s grand proportions are complemented by its magnificent north to rear land holding, highlighted by a shimmering inground pool, sweeping blankets of lawn, manicured hedges, curated gardens, stonework and a magnificent Ginko tree.
Show off your stunning natural landscape to friends over summer BBQs on the rear verandah or enjoy the peace and quiet all to yourself over a morning latte.
