Upper Ferntree Gully VIC 3156

On the upper-level, wormy chestnut solid floorboards unfold in an open plan zone with lashings of glass framing magical views with everchanging landscapes that transform throughout the day and the seasons.
The sublime kitchen wraps around a Caesarstone island bench for casual eats and conversation and features dual-sided storage and extra kick-panel drawers. The seamless kitchen layout is complimented by an integrated Asko dishwasher and premium 900mm cooker.
A cosy Nectre wood fire on a recycled brick platform takes centre stage and you can wash the dishes while watching the abundant birdlife in the native garden, framed by the serene National Park outlook.

Step out to a dreamy deck via 4-panel bifold doors and enjoy brunch accompanied by those views that will never fail to relax and inspire.
Down the hallway accented by illuminating highlight windows, three bedrooms are quietly nestled inclusive of a lavish master with French doors to the deck and walk-in robe. The master is conveniently positioned opposite the gleaming family bathroom with decadent deep soak bath, luxe rain shower and extra-large cavity slider, flooding the space in northern light.
Downstairs offers a multi-purpose layout for a multitude of lifestyle options, highlighted by European oak flooring underfoot and Illume solar powered LED skylights that mimic the weather. A living area with concealed kitchenette can be utilised as multigeneration accommodation, a home business/client meeting space or even as potential rental income for a student accommodation, along with two bedrooms, a plethora of storage, a chic bathroom, and its own separate entrance and parking space adding to the flexibility.
Framing the home are outdoor areas for relaxing, entertaining, pottering and play, with distinct levels including a flat lawn area with a cubby house where you can enjoy a cuppa under the wisteria clad porch and watch the kids from your happy place. Theres plenty of north-facing sunshine to grow your harvests here and a circa 1900 H.V.McKay Sunshine gate adding some country charm to the grounds.
French doors downstairs lead out to a fully flat garden and an all-season alfresco zone where you can entertain or enjoy a weekend barbeque against a magical backdrop.
Situated in a quiet and friendly locals only street, near to must-have amenities and acres of wide-open reserves and bushland, the balance of convenience and lifestyle is second to none.
