Upper Ferntree Gully VIC 3156

With lifestyle-convenience on the doorstep and sweetly tucked away into the natural fall of the land capturing a birds-eye view of the ridge line to the north over Upper Ferntree Gully and beyond to the National Park, this original 1920s cottage was once home to the local police chief to easily keep an eye on the township. Over the years she has been loved and extended with all the modern conveniences of today, yet her faade and touches of character detailing remains, along with some soul.
Encased in an expansive deck to relax on and appreciate the views, the entrance opens to a classic central hallway with high ceilings and stunning Baltic boards leading to adjacent bedrooms. The master with open fireplace and divine ceiling rose and pressed tin ceiling depicts the era and a wall of glass entices the morning sun to stream in to appreciate the sunrise. Four bedrooms, one currently utilised as a fabulous work from home room with bookcases lining a wall, floor to ceiling, sits off the modern extension abundant with light and functional spaces. The kitchen in whites and greys is offset by the timber floor and an industrial touch with original exposed brickwork housing the stove plus ample storage, butlers sink, dishwasher and breakfast bench. The open plan translates well with meals zone and relaxed living area connecting to the tiered rear yard garden, while plenty of flat spaces surround the home connecting up with the front deck.
The main bathroom continues the contemporary dcor with a second WC off the laundry, all flowing with a subtle color palette for you to introduce easily your love styles on the furnishings, as the current owner has with her vibrant reds and Asian interior design influences.
