"The Sheilan" - A timeless piece of garden history.
Nestled within EDNA WALLING's renowned Bickleigh Vale Village, "The Sheilan", meaning resting place, embodies the vision held by this celebrated landscape designer when she created her unique community of ENCHANTING cottages built of stone and timber back in the 1920's. Inspired by her home in Devonshire, England and her love of nature, EDNA WALLING brought to Mooroolbark a winding country lane of quaint postcard-worthy homes that have held timeless appeal for close to 100 years.

Modelled on a Scottish crofter's cottage, this authentic 3 bedroom cottage is nestled on approximately an acre of fresh green foliage in the form of GRAND OLD TREES, a lush understorey and countless blooms poised for their spring display. Shady courtyards, tranquil nooks and meandering paths await discovery in this ever-changing garden, and every window of the home invites you to step outside and soak up the BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDS.
Majestic stonework features in the home, with fireplace stones HAND-PICKED by Edna herself that showcase ancient fossils carrying their own story. The solid timber kitchen has been HAND-CRAFTED using reclaimed timber complimented by top quality appliances. A separate self-contained guest house and a one bedroom studio bring another dimension to the property, the possibilities are INFINITE!

Perfectly placed for COUNTRY LIFE with the convenience of city living, "The Sheilan" is close to quality schools, shopping centres and public transport. Book your inspection and prepare to be SWEPT AWAY.
