Just 27 kilometres from Melbourne’s vibrant CBD, yet feeling a world away, Yarra Retreat is a rare luxury estate where refined architecture, absolute privacy and extraordinary natural beauty combine in perfect harmony. Moments from suburbia, yet seemingly a world apart, this remarkable riverfront holding offers an unrivalled lifestyle of tranquillity, space and sophistication.
A soon-to-be-built road (scheduled May 2026) leading to this remarkable property will enhance the sense of arrival and exclusivity at Yarra Retreat. Here, the Yarra River sweeps past both the front and rear of the property, creating an immersive connection to water, landscape and sky. With the river so close, every change in weather becomes a spectacle — from mist-laden mornings to golden afternoons and serene evenings alive with native wildlife whilst the eagles soar.
Set across 20 cleared, gently undulating acres (approx. 8 hectares), the estate is anchored by an architecturally designed, solar-passive residence of approximately 55.17 squares. Positioned true north, the home captures magnificent sunrises and abundant natural light throughout the day. Double-glazed tinted windows, multiple heating and cooling options, 36 solar panels, and premium appliances and fixtures ensure exceptional comfort and efficiency without compromise.
The main residence delivers luxury on a grand scale, offering four generous bedrooms, three bathrooms plus a powder room, expansive living and entertaining zones, a fully equipped gym, and indulgent hot and cold pools overlooking the surrounding landscape. Car accommodation for up to ten vehicles and a substantial 24 x 12 metre shed cater perfectly to collectors, enthusiasts or those seeking a versatile workspace or studio options.
Enhancing the estate’s versatility, Yarra Retreat, thoughtfully designed to support guests extended stays. While a separate, stunning river-view studio enjoys breathtaking outlooks across the Yarra River — ideal as a yoga or wellness studio, executive home office, creative retreat or private sanctuary.
For equestrian buyers, the offering is equally compelling. Premium horse facilities include a professionally constructed sand arena with an indoor-outdoor viewing studio overlooking both the arena and the river. Abundant water storage and comprehensive property irrigation support the land with ease.
Despite its remarkable seclusion, the location is outstanding. Warrandyte’s boutique cafés and restaurants are just seven minutes away, Eltham’s everyday conveniences within ten, and the celebrated Yarra Valley wine and dining region — including Balgownie, Yarrawood Estate and the Yarra Valley Chocolate Factory — is approximately 30 minutes from home. Melbourne Airport is a straightforward 25-minute drive via the M80, with leading private schools such as Eltham College, Yarra Valley Grammar and Luther College all within close proximity.
Yarra Retreat is more than a home — it is a luxury sanctuary where nature, privacy and architectural excellence converge. A place to retreat, reconnect and live exceptionally, all within minutes of the city’s edge
