Imbuing an undeniable feeling of seclusion and privacy, this sublimely renovated historic hills home melds timeless aesthetics with designer style and contemporary comfort and is now ready for the next custodian of its important legacy. Cocooned within a stunning almost 5-acre garden wonderland, this marvel of architecture boasts a warm, organic palette with bursts of muted colour to complement the surrounding landscape with a symphony of living spaces spread over three glorious levels.

Meticulously updated yet retaining its historic essence, this grand estate is a beacon of tranquillity that destines you for the best in privacy, serenity, and mother nature's company. A home ideal for large, growing, or multigenerational families who love to entertain as much as they love to hide away, the property will also appeal to those after an income producing BnB or short stay accommodation opportunity. Embrace the comforting silence, bask in the scents of the season, and savour a lifestyle that promises both discretion and connection.

Celebrate the union of families within the broad dining room or entertain friends in the sweeping fireside lounge gracefully adorned by cathedral ceilings with exposed beams and the cosy allure of dual day beds.

An expression of culinary art and a place to gather over a platter, the devol inspired kitchen showcases a deluxe Lacanche cooker, quartz stone island with bench seating and banks of stunning cabinetry accented by gold.

Feast your eyes on awe-inspiring panoramas from each of the multiple decks and verandas that punctuate the property presenting the perfect canvas for sunrise coffee rituals, sunset wine toasts, or simply soaking in nature's theatre at its finest. From the top floor deck and adjoining sunroom, the dreamy view even extends all the way to Mt Baw Baw.

The master suite headlines the four bedrooms - a personal haven that pampers you with its plush ensuite, leadlight accents and unparalleled views through floor to ceiling windows. Retreat to your private enclave after a long day and indulge in the solitude.

The experience of this very special home is enhanced by a chic study nook, an upstairs retreat/sunroom, a charming family bathroom with deep soak bath and abundant storage.

This enchanting abode features beautiful high ceilings, fretwork, hardwood floors, leadlight accents, an open fireplace, full kitchen, a secluded deck providing views across the stunning gardens to the hills beyond, off-street parking for 2 cars, and a 4-person Jacuzzi.
Step outside and allow your senses to be captivated by the symphony of nature that surrounds this hills sanctuary. Wander through the stirring paths meandering through beautifully mature woodlands and discover hidden surprises like an exotic azalea maze established in 1923, a whimsical dell, and if you're lucky, a frolicking lyrebird. Laced with rare century old trees, cool rhododendron woods and bursts of seasonal colours, the grounds attract a host of wildlife and evoke a poetic ambience that complements the vintage allure of this prominent property.
