Perfectly positioned along the tranquil creek frontage of Riddells Creek, Downstream is an extraordinary lifestyle estate where architectural brilliance meets natural beauty. Spanning approximately 3.34 hectares, this breathtaking property has been thoughtfully designed to harmonise with its rugged valley setting, offering peace, privacy, and views of the Macedon Ranges.
Crafted with rock sourced from the land itself and built by a respected builder as his own family residence, the home celebrates craftsmanship and authenticity. A grand entrance and sweeping hallway introduce a refined interior where light, warmth, and texture converge. The open-plan living domain unfolds to reveal soaring spaces finished in reclaimed Messmate timber, seamlessly connecting kitchen, dining, and lounge areas. Facing east, the home captures magnificent morning sunrises, bathing the interior in golden light.
The gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home-featuring a solid timber island bench, Esse wood combustion stove with water jacket, and bespoke joinery. For added ambience, a gas log fire warms both the kitchen and lounge, creating a welcoming space for family gatherings and relaxation.
Every detail has been meticulously designed for comfort and performance. Double-glazed argon-filled windows, hydronic heating, and zoned ducted climate control ensure effortless living throughout the seasons. The flexible open-plan layout can be closed off for warmth and intimacy, enhancing the home's energy efficiency.
Three generous bedrooms each include walk-in robes, with the master suite offering a tranquil ensuite retreat. The additional bedrooms share a beautifully appointed bathroom, while a private study nook off the second bedroom and a separate home office provide peaceful spaces for work or creativity.
Outdoors, the natural landscape is a living artwork. Expansive timber decking overlooks a billabong, a meandering creek, and a collection of themed gardens blending structure with wilderness. From the Oak Forest and Fountain Garden to sculptural perennial borders and shaded parkland paths, every aspect celebrates seasonal change. The east-facing orientation invites dazzling sunrises, while the western skies deliver unforgettable sunsets mirrored across the water and foot pool. The external bathroom is ideal for those who love outdoor pursuits or entertaining.
Additional highlights include a double garage with workshop, single carport, machinery shed, and a charming garden room.
Located just moments from the Riddells Creek town centre-shops, cafés, medical facilities, and train station-and only 50 minutes from Melbourne CBD, Downstream offers a rare combination of rural tranquillity, timeless design, and modern convenience.
Sustainably engineered and artistically conceived, this is more than a home-it's a living masterpiece that captures the very essence of the Macedon Ranges lifestyle.
