Architecturally designed and constructed in 1975, this Western Red Cedar on the banks of the Merri River in a tightly held location, provides an opportunity unlike anything else. A geometric design with a blend of mid century, this property designed by Nick Griffin has a striking first impression.

Situated on 1800sqm of land running through to the watermark, this property offers expansive lawn area, established gardens, jetty and pathway along the water's edge.

A private facade, the property internally offers a spectacular step down lounge with an open fireplace. With floor to ceiling sliding cedar doors, this room captures the all day sun and provides impressive views across the Merri River to the north.

A revamped alcove kitchen provides flexible dining options with a meals area accompanying the kitchen or a more formal dining room off the lounge.

A casual living space connects off the kitchen and could be used for an additional bedroom, study or living space along with a linkway lounge that has a multitude of options.

Two guest bedrooms are situated at the end of the linkway with built in robes and family bathroom.

Throughout the home, the use of timbers, brick and geometric design there is a real sense of 1970s elegance. Blended cabinetry that ties into the lining boards, heated flooring throughout the lower level, floor to ceiling windows, angled ceiling lines all combine to finish such a stunning property.
