Last Listing description (December 2023)

SOLD by Jellis Craig. Set on almost 3 acres of riverfront (approx.), you can swap the hustle and hassle of today's busy living with a much more relaxed way of life when you settle in this two-bedroom home in this utterly unique pocket.

Protected by the state's only Environmental Living zone and named after a group of small islands in a bend in the Yarra, The Bend Of Islands or 'The Bend' as the locals call it, delivers a uniquely tranquil, nature-focused existence just 30 k's from the CBD and within easy reach of Warrandyte, Eltham, Hurstbridge and Diamond Creek and the Yarra Valley.

Taking full advantage of the contours of the land yet blending seamlessly with the surroundings, cedar boards wrap around a surprisingly spacious interior that takes full advantage of breathtaking views that you will relish every hour you are home!

Look down, and you can see the Yarra flowing past. Look across the treetops, and you'll take in a stunning view all the way to the Dandenong's and the Mt Lofty State Park, never to be built out. Look up, and you'll catch the visiting birdlife enjoying the sanctuary of no introduced predators.

Finished with picture windows, the ground floor introduces an open plan living-meals. Enhanced by soaring ceilings over timber floors and integrating an Ilve 900 mm range, it opens to an elevated deck where you can relax and toast your good fortune while admitting the ever-changing outlook. The main bedroom on this level also enjoys access to its own deck and is complemented by a loft bedroom. Under a striking timber ceiling and reached by stairs featuring a bespoke wrought iron balustrade, it shares a sleek contemporary bathroom (frameless shower and brushed brass tapware) with the main bedroom.

Freshly painted and finished with creature comforts, including a woodfire heater, mostly double-glazed windows that you can open to catch the breeze, lifting off the river and across the treetops, a fitted laundry and shedding, it also features new plumbing to the bathroom and laundry, and internet through the NBN so it's ready to move in and enjoy.

With direct access to the banks of the Yarra, it holds equal appeal for those looking for a true tree change, a low-maintenance space to enjoy weekends or the impressive returns generated via the short-term rental market.
