This property stirs the soul and brings opportunity unlike anything you thought possible.
The Alastair Knox designed home is sympathetically aligned to take in views of rolling pasture and hills to the north, and a Tuscan like entertainment area with sparkling salt/solar pool to the south - framed by a vineyard filled with Riesling and Chardonnay grapes, you'd be forgiven for thinking that this is as good as it gets.
Then you realise the 20 acres of super productive, volcanic soil, fed by two dams, is capable of crops, extending the vineyard beyond its 2.5 acres, or to run livestock - and it's all easily accessed by two separate entrances. One from the main road, the other from a quiet country lane shared by only three other properties.
It's from the country lane you'll be astounded to find access to the 600sqm insulated facility that sits atop a 150mm concrete slab and apron, with three-phase power, huge solar array, office, kitchenette, mezzanine storage and air conditioning.
It's an area that lends itself to so many uses (STCA), you could run a multitude of businesses with more than enough room to grow.
Then there's the 'Cellar Door” - a building with a previous wholesale liquor license that also comprises one bedroom & a bathroom that opens up yet more potential income streams.
As you'd expect on a property of this magnitude, there's a variety of machine sheds, water tanks and irrigation (also connected to mains water), well fenced paddocks, near new retaining walls and excellent drainage throughout.
The main house is an absolute credit to its current owners. Grand and imposing, yet warm and comforting. The design philosophy of Alastair Knox is on full display, with an incredibly intelligent floor plan, beautiful, exposed timbers, stone floors and feature lighting all under towering timber lined ceilings and behind double-glazed windows.
There's a quiet - a genuine serenity and calm to the interiors that really gives this home a special feel. Some of the highlights include the grand hall - with those sweeping views and open fire, the master bedroom featuring an ensuite that takes in a walled courtyard through enormous windows - the kitchen with marble topped island bench and Bosch Induction cooking, and the utterly fabulous pool surrounded by stunning hardwood decks.
All of this less than 35km from the CBD in the exclusive Kangaroo Ground - with easy access to all of the city conveniences in nearby Eltham, esteemed schools, national parks - and close to the delights of the Yarra Valley.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. It's a home for the generations, providing incredibly indulgent family living and multiple potential income streams. Properties are often said “to have it all” - rarely do they deliver. There's no doubt this magnificent property does.
