Boasting 6 serene acres surrounded by lush gardens and natural spring. On offer is a unique opportunity to bring this rich historical estate to the 21st century.
Following its glamorous days as a private home, hosting soirees and weekend parties for Melbourne's privileged elite, Penrith became an exclusive B&B decorated with original art deco features, some sourced from Burnham Beeches.
This charmed Penrith estate offers a distinguished introduction with a circular drive and forecourt, leading to a grand entrance that creates a memorable first impression. The estate is accessible from three points Mount Dandenong Tourist Road, Giddens Lane, and Fenton Street.
Upon entering, you'll find two spacious bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, each featuring study nooks or retreats, branching off from the majestic wide hallway. The cozy lounge room, complete with a fireplace, connects to an adjoining dining room and sunroom, all boasting lush, verdant views. The master bedroom is highlighted by a beautiful bay window.
The rustic timber kitchen, adorned with slate floors, is designed for both easy living and entertaining. It includes access to a large butler's pantry and larder, and trifold doors that open to facilitate seamless outdoor entertaining.
Downstairs, the property expands to include additional living and bedroom accommodations. This level features three more bedrooms (one with a separate entrance), each with its own ensuite bathroom, and a living/rumpus room. These spaces enhance the property's potential to function as a guest house (B&B) or to accommodate a larger family with multi-generational needs.
In the serene area by Olinda creek, you can enjoy the rare and stunning Himalayan Rhododendrons, listen to the calming sounds of birdsong, and appreciate the purity of a natural spring source. This magical spot invites picnics, glamping, or even a wedding celebration-though it can also be a private retreat if preferred.
The grounds have been beautifully landscaped with Japanese Maples, Azaleas, Camellias, Rhododendrons, Ferns, Elms, Copper Birches, a towering Tulip tree, a striking Davidia (handkerchief tree), Chestnut trees, and an old English garden featuring Edna Walling-style stone walls.
The property offers multiple alfresco spaces perfect for relaxation or elegant gatherings. Additional features include hydronic heating, rainwater tanks, a tandem carport, a sealed drive, a garage, a storage shed, and a chicken/dog run.
