28 Holyrood Drive, Vermont VIC 3133

Built by progressive design masters Merchant Builders, and immersed in private tropical gardens, this signature single level home feels like a hideaway resort. Full height north facing windows bathe the home in abundant natural light, with 3 free flowing living areas and a magnificent outdoor entertaining precinct encouraging indoor-outdoor integration across the fully renovated showpiece at the top end of Holyrood.
What freedom in the prized dual school catchment for Vermont Primary and Secondary (STSA) on the fringe of beautiful Campbells Croft in what looks like a new home, with a dramatic artisan timber and metal portico among the creative enhancements of the meticulously maintained property - now coming to the market for the first time since 1986.
Architect designed with bedrooms in the outer corners and living space at the heart of the floor plan, the layout offers vibrant activity and quiet retreat in just the right places.
A versatile office/nursery/sitting room overlooks the lush tropical gardens that frame the home - setting up an idyllic space for remote working alongside the master bedroom suite.
Cook with a view of the tropical gardens from a bright kitchen.
Soothing neutral tones throughout offer a timeless look, with terrazzo shower tiling in the ensuite adding some dramatic European flair.
Low maintenance lawn-free landscaping with plenty of paving and spectacular palm trees make for resort style relaxation, with a stunning mature Wisteria ready to colour the terrace in lavender blooms come spring.
Secured by high fencing, gates and sensor lights, with split system cooling units, a gas space heater, shugg windows for ventilation, roller blinds and a double remote garage, there's so much to love about this private family sanctuary - a high rising position with views to the mountains, parkland on your doorstep, in walking distance to the district's top schools, spoilt for shopping choice at Eastland and the newly upgraded Westfield Knox, with Eastlink to fast track you from the city to the coast.
