18 Poyner Avenue, Lilydale VIC 3140

In a quiet no through road and set on 870m2, you'll find the one: a home full of character and quality; a garden oasis to retreat to; an enviable lifestyle to enjoy. Beyond the fragrant roses and feature palm, this well maintained split level family home provides inspiring interiors highlighted by lofty raked ceilings and glossy timber floors. The long living area is warmed by a wood heater and is anchored by the quality Tasmanian Oak kitchen. Dual sliding doors access the expansive covered alfresco, extending the living space and creating a desirable indoor/outdoor connection that is ideal for entertaining. Three bedrooms include a huge master with walk in robe, ensuite and private, tranquil deck, with a step down to the garden. The study with its large skylight is a perfect home office, and the spacious family bathroom comes complete with a spa bath for ultimate relaxation. Ducted heating and evaporative cooling team with ceiling fans and a split system for all season comfort.

Retreat to the private garden where low maintenance yet generous plantings include native bird attracting trees, shrubs and grasses, ferns and palms around the fish ponds, your own veggie patch, and water tanks to keep the garden green year-round. There is easy access for boats, trailers and other vehicles via gates at the rear of the double carport, covered storage in the backyard, plus three sheds.

You'll feel a world away from the conveniences just a few meters down the road: Old Pound Reserve is a mere 50m from the driveway, Main Street for trains, shopping and eateries is about 1km away, whilst families will enjoy the choice of nearby quality schools. The attraction of this tightly held location and the appeal of this unique property create an opportunity not to be missed if you're searching for more than just a house; this is home.
