25 The Esplanade

Dennington VIC 3280

Extended in 2008, the new section of the house is architect designed with increased energy efficiency and blends in seamlessly with the original. Upstairs is the ultimate parent's retreat: master bedroom with ensuite and WIR, large office or hobby room, new kitchen and open plan meals/ living area with glass sliding doors opening to a raised balcony... a lovely space where you can relax and entertain in style. North facing awning windows capture all the winter sun and cross-ventilate in summer and you have uninterrupted river views from every window. Downstairs is a huge 6 bay garage/ workshop with 3 high remote doors, toilet, laundry and external doors leading out to additional sheds and a sheltered paved alfresco area on the river side. There is a large 12 panel 3kW solar system, ceiling fans in all rooms, a second wood heater upstairs, two solar/ gas Infinity hot water services and quality fittings throughout.

Outside there is lots of space for you to use as you wish, it's an incredible piece of land! A wide concrete driveway leads to the large garage and there is side access to the yard for work vehicles, trailer, boat, caravan, etc. Shelving to store materials, a large storage shed/ workshop, caravan port, wood shed and room for lots more. You can pump water direct from the Merri to water your plants and gardens; there is rich fertile soil and an established orchard with a variety of fruit trees, vegie patch, chook pen and lush established gardens... plenty of room for kids big and small to wander and explore.

The property has town and tank water, septic (no sewerage), power and town gas to the property plus phone and NBN. With such a wide frontage to the Merri it is worth pointing out that the house, garage and sheds are all built well above the 1 in 100 year flood level. While all of the low-lying land running down to the river is zoned Urban Floodway and can't be built on, there is a small section of elevated General Residential zoned land that could be subdivided (STCA) to provide a site for a second dwelling. With views that go on forever and such a picturesque setting to nurture with your family, you may just decide to keep it all to yourselves!

This is a one-off lifestyle property where city meets country which will impress on inspection. Call us today for more details.
