Character Splendour Circa 1920 in Prized Falls Road

Echoing stories of yesteryear, this charming fully renovated farmhouse, circa 1920, is a sanctuary perfectly suited to young families or busy professionals seeking a harmonious blend of vintage allure and modern amenity. Showcasing spectacular views of the Warburton Ranges from its expansive half-acre allotment, this residence—one of the original Dandenong Ranges cottages—is perched on one of the most prized streets in the hills, offering an idyllic lifestyle amidst exquisitely manicured grounds.
Awash with abundant natural light from dazzling skylights and northern sunshine, the mostly flat block unveils breathtaking easterly vistas where you can gaze upon the rolling hills of the Yarra Ranges and the shimmering waters of Silvan Reservoir from almost every room. Each sublime space, woven with a tapestry of traditional and eclectic English design, exudes warmth and comfort.
At every enchanting turn hints of a past life can still be found in the stunning period details (original and reclaimed) that include 9-foot ceilings, intricate stained-glass sash windows and heritage doors, while the bespoke wooden staircase and polished Baltic pine floorboards add timeless elegance.
Enjoy downtime in the open-plan living/meals domain, where four sets of French doors spill to an alfresco deck - an open open-air stage where you can take a front row seat to breathtaking surrounds for dinner alfresco, lazy Sundays or the extended family on Christmas Day.
Winter too is special as you cosy up by the toasty inbuilt wood heater and take comfort in the quintessential smoky aroma that defines hills living. Separately zoned but still connected, the skylit country kitchen epitomises every home chef’s wish list including a 900mm Ilve cooker, Belfast sink and shaker cabinetry with space for a French door fridge and a dining table. The master bedroom is a private retreat, apartment-sized with an ensuite, large walk-in robe (with yet another skylight!), and endless views through expansive glazing. Three other bedrooms feature peaceful outlooks over the gardens and beyond through leadlight panes, offering serene spaces to unwind or work from home. The main bathroom combines heritage charm with a touch of luxury, and you can soak away the day in the clawfoot tub.
For quieter moments, retreat to the downstairs library, a haven of peace and reflection that could comprise a second living, a sixth bedroom, guest retreat or a movie zone for the kids. A spacious garden studio adds flexibility to the home’s footprint with the ability to utilise the powered space as a home office, business premise, art/yoga studio, consulting room, teen hang or gym with potential to convert to an Airbnb, guest bedroom or multigeneration accommodation.
Outside, the stunning gardens beckon with their lush greenery and vibrant blooms that offer a full spectrum of colours throughout the seasons with glorious winter sun and the solace of summer shade. Not only meant to be admired from afar, an array of garden rooms with seating areas invites you to pause and take in the beauty of your surroundings, while lush blankets of lawn provide space for home picnics and fresh-air fun. Exotic plants and trees line the pathways, and frequent visits from king parrots, rosellas, kookaburras, rabbits, and echidnas make every day feel like an escape into nature.
Walking distance to Olinda Falls, RJ Hamer Arboretum, Mount Dandenong Primary School and moments from the charming shops and cafes at the village where everyone knows you by name, the locale offers complete peace and tranquility with the bonus of a friendly old school community appeal.
