15 Everest Crescent, Olinda VIC 3788

Standing proudly just footsteps from the village in a tightly held and prestigious pocket of Olinda rests this two-storey weatherboard dripping in charisma, character and charm. Embracing the best of both worlds with yesteryear allure complemented by all the comforts, whims and tastes of the twenty-first century, this king size home is ready and waiting for its Queen. Originally home to the Olinda Post Office, the occupying home known as “Tall Timbers” is sympathetic to bygone days with leadlight sash windows, hardwood floors, timber panelling and French doors that lead to inspiring garden spaces including a fabulous deck, lush lawn and well-established plantings. Revel in boutique shops, chic cafes and the local primary school within minutes or simply embrace the quietude of your private garden sanctuary in a much-loved neighbourhood street where everyone knows you by name and “borrowing a cup of sugar” is smiled upon.

• Easy access to your herb or kitchen garden is delivered by a fabulously placed side door.
• Three living areas allow everyone to spread out from the cosy lounge with gas log fire to the living area close to the children’s wing and then come together for hearty meals and conversation in the skylit dining/family room.

Insider’s Secret: A five minute amble down the road takes you to a choice of cafes for your morning latte or wood fired pizzas at Dudley’s on a weekend afternoon.
