37 Francis Crescent, Ferntree Gully VIC 3156

Presenting a bold statement in grand family living, this super-sized home features generous proportions, elevated vistas, alfresco flair and a superb location that provides the best of convenience and community. Sprawling over a huge, almost 1891sqm allotment, the home stands out from the crowd with five living areas, two bars, a library, cellar and sparkling inground pool and spa. Tightly held in the same family for the last 46 years, you'll become only the second owner of this magnificent residence. All the space is there to cater for the largest of families or multigenerational living and all over the sprawling three stories.

Brimming with flexibility, living spaces are abundant and flow over three levels. Gather around the big screen in the family room with polished floors underfoot and stunning panes of glass providing garden vistas whilst the kids take over the huge step down lounge at the front. Congregate in the dining room with a built-in bar, entertain with ease as you step out to the terrace and when it's time for quietude you can catch a chapter in the library/home office. At the heart of it all is a lavish sky lit kitchen updated, with no expense spared ten years ago, with stone benches, large island, premium appliances and breakfast bar made complete with an attractive gas fireplace adjacent that provides toasty warmth. The amazing floorplan provides segregated spaces for formal and informal living. Downstairs is a fabulous area for the teenagers or for hosting epic snooker clashes with a rumpus/games zone, cosy retreat with a crackling wood fire and a wet bar. Grab a vintage drop from the impressive 1400 bottle wine cellar with indoor and outdoor access.

Accommodation is well-catered for with three robed bedrooms positioned upstairs serviced by two bathrooms and a toilet whilst a master retreat is positioned for privacy with an enormous walk-in robe, spa-ensuite with double shower and a toilet with bidet.

Outside has it all – a covered alfresco with Italian pavers and built-in BBQ overlooking a solar/gas heated pool and spa, beautifully lush, landscaped gardens that attract an abundance of birdlife, citrus fruit trees, enclosed veggie garden, playground and ample shedding. There are also 7 water tanks (60,000L), double garage with drive through access, ducted heating, split systems, security system and auto security shutters wrapping the ground floor.
