House description

“Retro Revival Meets Modern Sassafras Industrial Soul”

**Access via Lennox Grove. Limited parking at the property**

There’s a certain kind of magic you only find in homes with a story - and this one has plenty to tell. Built in the late 70s entirely from reclaimed and recycled materials, this remarkable Sassafras sanctuary hums with personality, warmth, and a quietly creative energy. With only two owners in its lifetime, it’s been lovingly renovated to blend retro industrial edge with contemporary sophistication - where texture, tone, and architectural intrigue meet the calm of the forest.

Here, life moves to a gentler rhythm. Sunlight filters through soaring windows and skylights, dappling exposed beams and brickwork in a way that feels almost cinematic. The spacious living and meals area glows with cypress floors, an open fireplace and French doors that spill onto the alfresco - the kind of indoor-outdoor connection that makes entertaining or relaxing equally effortless.

In the kitchen/meals, original quarry tiles meet the sleekness of stone benchtops, a social breakfast bar, induction cooktop, pyrolytic oven and under cupboard LED strip lighting. It’s a place that feels both grounded and elevated - where homegrown herbs sit beside stainless steel, and the smell of coffee mingles with the forest air.

The master bedroom is privately zoned, with floor-to-ceiling robes and a fully tiled ensuite that pairs modern luxury with subtle nods to the home’s retro charm. Two additional robed bedrooms share a stylish family bathroom, where a rain shower, bespoke vanity and exposed brick feature wall create a spa-like mood that’s beautifully in sync with the home’s earth and organic aesthetic.

Outside, the covered alfresco with brick pavers is tailor-made for long lunches and Christmas gatherings, while the gardens are a love letter to the Dandenong Ranges themselves - lush, layered, and alive with birdsong. Towering ferns, Japanese maples, magnolias and clivias form a vivid tapestry of greens and blooms, all framed by a sweeping silhouette of the hills.

Practicalities are quietly impressive too – natural gas central heating, NBN, double garaging and a workshop (each with plentiful storage), chook house, citrus trees, veggie beds, and a rainwater tank - all tucked behind a stunning ornamental pear-lined driveway that’s as beautiful as it is welcoming.

Whether you’re an artist, a nature lover, or simply someone seeking soulful seclusion within walking distance of Sassafras Village, this is a home that will speak to your heart and soothe your senses in equal measure.
