SOLD by Jellis Craig. Bookended by Stony Creek and the banks of the Yarra River, this terrific weatherboard home offers a rare opportunity to live the dream and have the best of town and country. A sense of peace and privacy is immediately felt, delivering versatility and space for the whole family, introduced by a generous lounge room featuring a soaring cathedral ceiling, access to the front verandah and a copper-fluted open fire to sit beside with a hot chocolate on a cold winter's night.

Continue through to a central kitchen and dining zone with custom pendant lighting, an island breakfast bar, a pyrolytic oven, gas cooktop and plenty of clever storage. Two robed bedrooms are found on this level, alongside a tasteful family bathroom, whilst upstairs, parents enjoy their own space with a north-facing bedroom with treetop views, a walk-through dressing room and ensuite, plus a home office/4th bedroom and a retreat with a Juliet balcony.

Family fun centres around the inground pool, complemented by a versatile studio that could be used as a games room, a teenager's retreat or additional space when guests come to stay. At the rear, the bush backyard leads you to the river, where you can drop in a canoe for an early morning paddle or simply enjoy the sheer beauty of your surrounds. Highlights include ducted heating, split system air conditioning, a double carport with storage space and off-street parking.
