There’s something undeniably special about this Belgrave Heights beauty - a home that carries its years with grace yet still feels vibrantly alive. Thought to have been built in the 1940s and lovingly extended over time, it’s a storybook blend of eras and textures, positioned proudly on the crest of a hill where the light lingers longer and the gardens spill over in colour and charm.
Inside, the home is all heart and soul with three separate zones flowing across the ground floor delivering spaces to gather, unwind, and be. Every room tells its own story, from the moody sitting room with its ornate fireplace to the relaxed open plan kitchen and meals area crowned by soaring exposed beams and the cosy lounge. Engineered oak floors meet wool carpet underfoot, while louvre and colonial windows invite in ribbons of sunshine and garden views from every direction.
The noir kitchen is a showstopper - all style and practicality in equal measure. Stone benchtops, a 900mm SMEG oven, and an integrated Bosch dishwasher make it the kind of place you’ll love to cook, gather, and linger. Drenched in north and westerly light, the adjoining dining zone is a place made for connection - where the family naturally gathers, stories spill over meals, and the built-in window seat beckons for lazy Sundays with coffee in hand.
A downstairs bedroom and bathroom (with diamond leadlight windows and a leafy bath view) create flexibility for guests or those who prefer to live on one level, while upstairs two beautiful bedrooms invite choice - one with a private balcony gazing over the gardens, the other with a reading nook and display shelving, both serviced by a walk-in dressing room and bathroom.
Step outside, and the romance continues. Over half an acre (approx.) of gardens designed for beauty, productivity, and pure joy unfurl around a delightful, paved patio - the perfect spot for morning cuppas or twilight dinners under the trees. Beyond, a gazebo sits shaded by mature canopies, sweeping lawns are dotted with cherry and maple trees, and garden beds burst with a divine array of seasonal splendour - lavender, lamb’s ear, bush pansy, and Chinese fringe flowers all taking their turn to shine. It’s a garden alive with movement - birds darting, bees humming - nature’s quiet symphony playing out among the blooms. There’s even an orange tree heavy with fruit and a thriving veggie patch promising a rewarding harvest.
A powered workshop clad in Boston ivy adds a touch of whimsy for the tinkerers, while solar panels, split system air conditioning, and multiple parking options via two separate entrances (including a flexible undercover area that could return to a carport) bring modern practicality to this enchanting retreat.
And with Birdsland Reserve walking tracks just 160m away, local schools and villages within easy reach, and the sounds of nature your constant soundtrack - this is hills living at its most soulful.
