290 Leppitt Road

Beaconsfield Upper VIC 3808

Approaching the property at 290 Leppitt Road, one is struck by the untouched beauty of this woodland area. Surrounded by native flora and fauna, the winding driveway leads to a residence that blends seamlessly into its earthy surrounds. Built into a granite-based hill, this earth-sheltered housing has native grasses growing from the roof, which creates an impressively bushfire-resistant environment along with double-bricked walls, which also help keep controlled temperatures.
Large, accommodating windows allow light to flow throughout all living areas within this three-bedroom home. The lounge/dining area offers a unique circular design, with a Coonara solid fuel heater in the centre and raw cut marble flooring throughout. The bedrooms all boast spacious dwelling with robes, the master with ensuite and walk-in-robe. Additional features include full laundry, powder room, double garage with double car port, and a modest vegetable patch close to the house.
20 acres of bushland extend behind this home and have been maintained with passion and care by its owners of 35 years. Protected by a Trust For Nature covenant, to be carried over with the title, the carers of this property are committed to preserving its native environment, where a broad variety of unique native vegetation thrives as a result. The land is shared with diverse range of wildlife - large and small - including wallabies, echidnas, possums, gliders, bandicoots and many more.
