3 Spencer Avenue, Emerald VIC 3782

Privately presiding on 4350m2 as the sole residence of Spencer Avenue, overlooking the fourth hole fairway of the old Emerald Golf Course and approached by a sweeping driveway currently ablaze with autumn you will find a striking resemblance to a grand Tuscan villa, with it's bagged brick walls, patio doors and Mediterranean colour palette.

Inhale the beautifully presented interiors, architectural ceilings, ornate skirting and polished hardwood floors. The open plan living and dining space is simply breathtaking; drenched in natural light reflected from the operatic central atrium and warmed by a Nectre wood fire, the texture of the shiplap ceilings blends perfectly with the classic French doors that create a seamless transition with the outdoors. The central gourmet kitchen, the perfect vantage point for friends and family to gather over aperitivo on the expansive island with timber benchtops and Ilve oven and rangehood.

A separate formal living space with an open fireplace, sash & casement windows framing the garden views and silver birch trees beyond. A considered floor plan of four zoned bedrooms with a privately positioned master suite adjacent to the formal living with walk-in robe and full ensuite, including claw foot bath and separate shower. The further three bedrooms are located off the entrance hallway that includes large linen and storage cupboards.

Outdoors, the glass-covered verandah and north-facing alfresco terrace call for early morning breakfasts surrounded by bird-song or an evening wine listening to Verdi under the majestic branches of the 75 year old Oak tree. As you'd expect from a home of florists, the established gardens provide seasons of ever-changing delight and endless flowers to arrange including numerous rose varieties, bulbs, daphne, rhododendrons, ornamental pears, lemon and dogwood trees.

Other features of note include central heating, air conditioner, water tank and double garage.

Located in the idyllic hills village of Emerald, only moments from Avonsleigh township and the popular Bam Bam Italian restaurant and Avonsleigh General Store, with local schools (cut through the golf course to Emerald Secondary School), state forests, walking trails all at your feet.
