Architect designed and inspired by the stunning natural landscape that enhances its magical setting, this striking hills haven fuses an earthy ambience and modern-day functionality seamlessly over its tri-level layout. Built to enrich its serene almost acre environment, this 4-bedroom 2-bathroom home can be open and airy, or warm and snug and delivers breathtaking sunrises filtered through the treescape year-round. Lashings of floor to ceiling glass, cathedral timber-lined ceilings, sandstone floors and exposed brick complement the lush environment where you can drink in a treed outlook from every aspect with barely a neighbour in sight.
Immersed in a wonderfully private and peaceful setting, this is a home for families to escape, grow, work from home and entertain.
The home attracts abundant natural light through its trademark panoramic windows beginning with a striking sun-kissed entrance.
Wrapping around a staircase that connects the three levels, two fireside living zones provide sanctuaries for downtime including a family/meals and a sitting/dining space. At the heart, a contemporary stone-topped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar and a super-sized deluxe butler’s pantry to keep life clutter free. To add to the lifestyle is also a beautifully updated plus sized laundry turn mudroom that comes packed with an abundance of storage.
Dual north-easterly oriented balconies provide a majestic, forested backdrop to any occasion with sliding doors creating a smooth transition from indoors to out. Gaze at the towering tree ferns with birdsong in the air or enjoy brunch with the king parrots. Life is easy here, a million miles from the chaos of the work week.
The segregated master suite is a mezzanine main attraction with its chic rain shower ensuite, lavish walk-in robe and secluded private balcony - the perfect spot to sit and read when you want to shut out the world. Three additional bedrooms unfold from a hallway decadent in size, all robed and all with outdoor access and serviced by an elegant bathroom.
Downstairs – a zone just for the teens or perhaps dad’s man cave where a wood fire adds ambience to late-night chats with friends around the wet bar, nights in front of the big screen or epic games of pool.
A pitched roof pergola for alfresco flair flows to a large grassed flat area providing a verdant environment for kids to play, kick a ball or set up a table to rival the world’s longest lunch when it’s time to host Christmas day.
All this serenity yet you are a short stroll to the village where you’ll find Kallista Cellars, Kallista Deli, the popular Kallista Tea rooms, organic fruit and vegetable market, cafes, post office and Primary School and just 600m from local favourite Cook’s Corner. Take a weekend drive for bakery treats at Proserpina in Ferny Creek, stock up on freshly roasted beans at Empire Coffee in Monbulk and savour a drink at Killik Rum Distillery in Belgrave and walk it all off with a bush walk through the nearby Sherbrooke Forest.
