Perched proudly along the ridge of Emerald's most scenic stretch, "Bindaree" is one of the region's most iconic properties - a timeless sanctuary where panoramic vistas sweep from the tranquil waters of Cardinia Reservoir to Arthur's Seat on the Mornington Peninsula, and across to French Island in Western Port Bay.
From its origins as a charming 1930s Art Deco cottage, this residence has gracefully evolved into a magnificent family estate, crowned with a distinctive turret and surrounded by magnificent established gardens. Every corner of Bindaree reflects a devotion to craftsmanship and a reverence for its history - a home where past and present coexist in perfect harmony.
Step beyond the original fretwork porch and into an entrance hall featuring a pressed tin ceiling, a fitting introduction to the home's rich character and well-preserved period detail. The master suite is a private retreat with walk-in wardrobes, a separate toilet, and a stately en suite complete with a deep bath and elegant shower.
A cosy lounge beckons with its original fireplace adorned with rose-blush deco tiles and bay windows framing the garden's seasonal blooms. The heart of the home, however, is the stunning kitchen - a seamless blend of tradition and modern luxury, featuring white subway tiles, Victorian Ash benchtops, brass fittings, and premium stainless-steel appliances including a 6-burner gas stove, double oven, and twin-drawer dishwasher. From here, meals can be served in the beautifully wood-panelled dining room, or out on the wide veranda where sunsets paint the horizon in breathtaking colour.
The family room, framed by expansive picture windows and fitted with automated blinds, provides a spectacular vantage point for enjoying the ever-changing scenery - from morning light to twilight hues.
Downstairs, discover three additional bedrooms with walk-in robes, a bright sunroom opening to a private courtyard, and a newly renovated bathroom and laundry in crisp whites. The thoughtful layout ensures comfort with ducted heating, evaporative cooling, and split-system air conditioning throughout.
Outdoor living is every bit as enchanting. The under-veranda terrace, tiled in terracotta and edged by Sasanqua Camellias, creates a tranquil garden gallery. The double garage offers ample storage for vehicles and leisure equipment, while the grounds are a true horticultural delight - a mature orchard boasting fig, apple, mandarin, grapefruit, tangelo, lime, lemon, guava, quince, orange, plum, peach, and pomegranate trees. Complementing this are a fully fenced vegetable garden, 22,000 litres of tank water, an olive arbour leading to a picturesque pergola, and even a croquet lawn for leisurely afternoons outdoors.
Set on nearly two acres, Bindaree is a place where life's most memorable moments unfold. Within minutes of Emerald Village, local schools, and public transport, this extraordinary property offers privacy, beauty, and a sense of permanence rarely found.
An inspection is essential to experience the soul and splendour of this once-in-a-lifetime home.
