**OFFERS NOW CLOSING NOON ON WEDNESDAY 27/10/21**
Introduced by a horseshoe drive, this substantial and character-filled family home is set in a whisper-quiet cul-de-sac promising a peaceful existence for those seeking a change of pace and enough room for the largest of families. Showcasing spectacular postcard views across Cardinia Reservoir to Westernport Bay, the home’s serene setting is one to envy and delivers rustic timber lined cathedral ceilings, earthy Jarrah floors and a large deck with majestic views atop a Selby “flat” usable acre with expansive rolling lawns and the allure of rainforest style gardens. This well-designed home is big on space and has zoned living so everyone can spread out and do their own thing yet congregate for mealtime in the open plan living zone. Under 10 minutes from bustling Belgrave, you can add convenience to the list without losing privacy and quietude where the only peak hour rush you will experience is when the postie does his rounds.

Talking Points:

• Two versatile living spaces depending on your lifestyle needs creating opportunities for much loved togetherness as well as highly desired privacy.
• Hearty timber kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and inspiring views from the kitchen sink!
• Expansive and impressive accommodation comprising five spacious robed bedrooms serviced by a family bathroom and a grand master with ensuite and walk-in robe.
• Merbau decks at the front and back of the house oriented for awe-inspiring sunsets, alfresco dining and morning brews accompanied by birdsong.
• Fabulous extras such as NBN, rainwater tanks (50,000L+), reverse cycle air-conditioning, ducted heating, built-in firebox and underground cellar.
• Gardens awash with tree ferns and native green hooded orchids that are home to tawny frogmouths, rosellas, kookaburras, kurrajongs, finches, king parrots, magpies and many more species. The veggie patches are also ready and awaiting your heirlooms.
• Ideal for the growing family with heaps of space for vehicles, caravans, boats and trailers in the horseshoe driveway and four undercover car spaces including lock-up double garage with attached workshop.
• Backing on to Black Hill Bushland Reserve - Selby serenity means you have the allure of picturesque reserves, walking tracks, local schools, sporting clubs and amenities whilst still being just a 5-minute drive from bustling Belgrave and its station, supermarkets or cinema. Horse agistment is also available at the beginning of Karen Street for equine enthusiasts.
