Last Listing description (September 2024)

Loved and enjoyed by just one family, this beautifully bespoke family residence has been meticulously designed for a life of comfort and functionality in a tightly held no-through road locale. The robust, visionary and architecturally inspired design, conceived in the 80s, remains timeless today, boasting a sustainable split-level concept adorned with cathedral ceilings, lashings of floor skimming glass and breathtaking skylights that bathe the home in natural light. Showcasing superb craftmanship and considered design, each room opens outwards, amplifying the sense of space and tranquility. Encapsulated on an impressive third quarter-acre allotment with 180-degree views over the valley and a nightly urban lightshow, this custom designed, owner-built home with a bonus studio/retreat offers a rare opportunity for families to flourish in an environment that's serene, spacious and caters for those who work from home or operate a home business.

High quality natural materials abound, with an earthy palette of exposed brick and timber beams radiating warmth and beauty throughout this beautifully constructed double brick home. Striking spotted gum engineered floors greet you at the entrance before flowing down to dual living zones that blend seamlessly with the verdant surrounds. An expansive timber kitchen, complete with Caesarstone counters, a walk-in pantry and breakfast bar, gazes over the meals and living area, while, a separate carpeted family/dining space beckons with the inviting glow of an open fireplace with built-in seating for cosy nights fireside.

A sumptuous sanctuary awaits upstairs with the sequestered master domain featuring a modern ensuite, walk-in robe, and a secluded area with floor to ceiling windows perfect for a parent’s retreat. A true haven for the heads of the household – its design also lends itself to a quiet work from home space or even a fourth bedroom depending on your lifestyle needs. With minor cosmetic updates, this home could be transformed into a 5 bedroom residence. Two additional robed bedrooms are positioned in their own zone near the entrance serviced by a gleaming, fully tiled family bathroom that provides daily pampering via a deep soak claw foot bath.

Cleverly conceived storage solutions, including underfloor, under stair and hallway, and built-ins, keep your sanctuary clutter-free, while the double garage graces the property with secure parking for your vehicles plus additional off-street spaces. The cherry on top – literally – is the stunning studio/retreat atop the garage, presenting endless possibilities from a serene yoga studio to an independent teen retreat. With its own stacker doors to each decks with steel balustrade, floor to ceiling windows, forest red hardwood floors and lashings of light – this is a magical space to make your own.

Alfresco bliss is delivered via quality paving that frames the home enveloped by lush, leafy gardens with a terraced landscape design brimming with natives. There’s ample space to entertain, enjoy summer barbeques or simply soak up the quietude accompanied by birdsong. You can also melt the day’s stresses away in the bubbling undercover large outdoor spa. The home delivers easy access to The Angliss Hospital, Upper Ferntree Gully Station, Burwood highway, Ferntree Plaza including Maxi Foods, the Thousand Steps (Kokoda Memorial Trail), primary and secondary schools and public transport hubs.
