Inspired by and honouring the beauty of the natural environment, this remarkable architectural home has been designed by renowned Passive Solar architect Andreas Sederof, who is unequivocally leading the change and motivating environmental sustainability, while offering the potential to transition to off-grid living as the home has been pre-wired to accommodate a substantial solar system.
Set on approximately 29 acres of beautiful Victorian countryside, this cutting-edge home, designed specifically for its location on the property, takes full advantage of the N/E aspect while harnessing the winter sun to heat the highly polished concrete floor.
Creating a feeling you are living in a world of your own, the open-plan living and dining domain, with floor to vaulted-ceiling windows, frame the unsurpassed views of the stunning landscape, while also providing access to the outdoor alfresco area.
Uncompromising quality is prominent throughout, highlighted in the kitchen by simplistic clean lines, a custom made Esse wood-fired stove, quality electric appliances and a walk-in pantry of impressive proportions. To one side, the master suite features built-in robes, a stylish ensuite and a powder room, whilst a separate wing hosts three further robed bedrooms, a sophisticated central bathroom, and a large laundry.
Taking centre stage on the fully fenced landscape, a 4-acre (approx.) lake is home to breeding platypus, abundant fish and bird life and a 13 megalitre water licence for stock & domestic use included with the property.
Offering a range of viable income streams, a "Glamping" area with a large fire pit overlooks the lake, plus, there are several paddocks, of which the larger paddock has been used for cutting hay producing between 700 – 900 small bales, an established orchard while the substantial workshop / shed of approx. 150sqm with dual access was constructed to handle truck traffic.
Achieving an energy rating of 8.1 and the capacity to store 110,000 litres (approx.) of rainwater, this awe-inspiring lifestyle choice is approximately a 10-minute drive to Kinglake main street, 20 minutes to Yarra Glen, and 30 minutes to Healesville. On the doorstep of the Yarra Valley, over 70 wineries, numerous breweries, distilleries, restaurants, cafes, and state and national parks are all within easy reach.
