439 Spring Valley Road, Flowerdale VIC 3717

Set high above the valley with sweeping views in every direction, this is a home full of warmth, comfort, and timeless character.

Thoughtfully renovated, the house offers four bedrooms (or three plus a study or library), two bathrooms, European laundry + attic storage.

The master bedroom features a skylight and ensuite. Both bathrooms have been recently updated to a modern, clean finish.

Throughout the home, unique features give it real personality, the curved "cruise ship like" panelled wall overlooking the kitchen is majestic to say the least.

The kitchen is designed to be used, not just admired. All under high ceilings that open into a second living or dining space. It includes stainless steel benches, premium appliances, a gas cooktop, and a 900mm electric oven.

The main lounge is open-plan and welcoming, "light and airy" and resonates that feeling of there's no place like home. The Euro wood fireplace and quality insulation keep things comfortable year-round, backed by a reverse-cycle air conditioner.

Outside, the block is equally well set up. A new four-bay shed and a lean-to for firewood add practicality, and the travertine-paved terrace is a great spot to unwind and catch the sun rise and set.

A chicken coop, an orchard (apples, nectarines and apricots + quince and walnuts), separate tool shed, and over 75,000L of water storage.

The land is divided into four paddocks, and the house block is fenced with dog wire to keep pets in, and a low electric wire to keep wombats out.

It's off-grid ready too-with a 6.5kW solar system, 4.5kW of battery storage, and internet via satellite or the fixed wireless tower installed on the hill (Hyperwave).

Wildlife is part of the daily rhythm-kangaroos, wombats, echidnas, and deer regularly wander through.

The birdlife is a real highlight, from the chatter of rosellas and king parrots to the whoosh of wedge-tailed eagles overhead.

In the mornings, the garden fills with birdsong from wrens, cockatoos, kookaburras, and more.

Located just 50 minutes from Lilydale and under 90 minutes from Melbourne, it's a peaceful retreat that's still within easy reach.

Nearby, you've got the new "The General" café/restaurant in Strath Creek, "Boots and Bobs" at the Flowerdale community hall (Thursday–Sunday), and of course, the iconic Flowerdale pub.

439 Spring Valley Road is more than just a home-it's a place to slow down, breathe deep, and stay a while.
