28 Chalet Road, Olinda VIC 3788

Nestled in the heart of The Dandenong Ranges, this one-of-a-kind multigenerational family estate is a treasure trove of stunning vistas, lush landscapes, and unparalleled flexible living spaces indoor and out. Built from the ground up and offered for sale for the first time in 50 years, there simply isn’t another property of “Gracehill’s” size, scale and scope in the hills.

Experience the magic of stunning ever-changing views, the joy of outdoor living, and the comfort of a spectacular home built with love. This is more than just real estate - it's an invitation to embark on the greatest adventure of all: creating a home for your family's future generations. It’s a lifestyle, an adventure, a legacy where traditions are created and passed down.

Sprawling across six acres of pristine land, this property is a testament to the beauty and bounty of nature. The panoramic views as far as Gippsland in one direction and across to the Yarra Valley in the other are nothing short of breathtaking - a visual feast that changes with every season, offering an ever-changing backdrop to your family's story.

The main house is an architectural marvel over two levels with 6 spacious bedrooms and 5 bathrooms exuding warmth and character in every corner. Multiple living and entertaining zones provide ample space for family gatherings, quiet moments, or festive celebrations including 2 full kitchens.

An amble through the gardens leads to a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom self-contained barn with all-season deck. This versatile space can serve as guest accommodation or a retreat for older family members

But what truly sets this property apart are its breathtaking gardens - a labor of love that has blossomed into a living masterpiece including a 50-year-old Ginko tree and rare Japanese maple. Wander through the meandering paths, discover hidden nooks, and immerse yourself in the symphony of colours, scents, and sounds.

The sunny and flat lush lawn is a vibrant canvas for outdoor activities, from picnics and playdates to garden parties and quiet afternoons with a book. The children's playground too is a haven for young adventurers.

For those keen on self-sufficiency, the property boasts a thriving veggie patch and a chicken shed - perfect for farm-to-table meals, and the resident bees not only produce delicious honey but also contribute to the health of the surrounding flora.
Positioned in paradise, you're surprisingly not far from everyday amenities. Under 5-minutes drive to Olinda Village and only 9 minutes to Monbulk Village, schools, supermarkets and transport. You can also enjoy many bush walks throughout the Arboretum opposite Gracehill.
