Delivering a unique family environment with picturesque views across acreage and neighbouring National Park, this dream lifestyle property on 1.75 acres feels a world away from civilisation yet is only minutes from the conveniences of the Montrose Village, Mount Evelyn township and Lilydale. Filled with natural light, air flow and verdant views from every room, the home showcases a seamless indoor-outdoor connection to make the most of the picturesque landscape. Boasting exceptional modern comfort and a rural charm feel, this 6-year-old stylish and contemporary residence offers ample space, perfect for growing families to make their forever home.
Poised at the end of a long, meandering driveway that creates a suspenseful entrance, the property begins with abundant forecourt parking, beautifully landscaped gardens and cleverly layered Merbau steps which leads up to the front door.
Gleaming bamboo floorboards welcome you into an impressive floorplan, with a quiet carpeted lounge swinging left before arriving at the inviting open plan living, dining and spectacular modern kitchen domain with heartwarming wood fire ambience and a communal island poised under pendant lights. Caesarstone benches, quality stainless steel appliances, and a luxe butler's pantry adorn this culinary space that forms the centrepiece of this conducive layout.
The master bedroom is privately positioned flaunting a huge walk-in robe and contemporary ensuite with a luxurious double monsoon shower and vanity that will pamper the heads of the house. Three additional bedrooms, each with a deluxe walk-in robe, are tucked away off the hallway, alongside a main bathroom that matches the modern tones enjoyed throughout.
Effortless connection to the outdoors is facilitated by expansive glass sliders to the serene alfresco zone complete with an outdoor kitchen/BBQ area which is plumbed to mains gas. Covered for year-round enjoyment here you can enjoy downtime on the weekend or host the crowd on Christmas Day.
Children will delight in the whimsical playground that is within a watchful eye of the front verandah with a cubby house, swings and sandpit, while the firepit zone is the place to be when the sun sets.
A fabulous bonus is the brand-new blank canvas shed spanning a massive 10m x 20m footprint. With 3 phase power, plumbing/water/internet connections all in place, the space can be anything you dream of including a home business set-up, man cave, teen hangout, storage for your prized possessions or a combination of uses. And if going green is your jam, you’ll also appreciate the solar panels, a water tank, veggie garden and a dedicated chicken house/run that will bring you closer to self-sufficiency.
With a serene national park as its backdrop, this home provides a country-style rural outlook while being close to amenities such as Keith Hume Fraser Reserve, Montrose Primary School, shops, cafes, and services, with easy access to central Mooroolbark, Lilydale, and the spectacular Yarra Valley.
