Last Listing description (March 2019)

This building s bold design, innovative materials and exposed framework sparked quite a debate when it was first built as a Catholic primary school in 1974, but its flexible floorplan and sturdy construction served the community well until a new school was built. Repurposed as an imposing family home, the foresight and vision of the architect, who also happened to be a priest, is now lauded and prized, and the dwelling has been the subject of awards and journal articles in Australia and internationally.
An abundance of light and a generosity of space are hallmarks of this distinctive residence. A vast central space offers an assortment of living areas that can be redefined simply by moving furniture. Huge, custom-made glass doors slide back to allow full access to the sheltered balcony, where the views over Woodend are quite something.
A wall of three-quarter height maximises light and houses a fabulous wood fire, and the current dining area comfortably accommodates a 12 seater table.

The kitchen is suitably large, and has a Miele wall oven and Falcon cooker with electric oven and gas hot plates. Stone benchtops stretch for miles, and there are two sinks. This is a kitchen for gastronomy, the clinking of glasses and lively conversation.
A powerful ESCEA mains gas heating system can be controlled by Smartphone and features a 1.6m wide fireplace with complimentary ducting throughout the main areas. In addition there are two 3 phase heating cooling units ensuring year round comfort.
The master bedroom has a wonderful ensuite bathroom with underoor heating, and a spacious walk in robe. Two further bedrooms share a central bathroom, also with underfloor heating.
The house is quite elevated, and appears to float on the gentle slope, courtesy of its unique sub-floor. The 3857sqm allotment is undulating and the garden has been designed to unobtrusively complement the star of the show by way of gravel terraces, stone walls and open grassy areas. There are many mature trees for blazes of autumn colour and inviting summer shade.
Separate from the main residence, but accessed by a lovely deck and walkway is an elegant and sizeable studio, workshop and double garage. 8KW of solar panels make an eco-contribution to the energy needs of the house.
The location is unsurpassed, as this property is within an easy walk of the railway station and is in the town centre. The Calder Freeway enables quick access to Melbourne, with the first traffic lights encountered being in Flemington Road. This building has turned heads for decades, and in its current incarnation as a modern residence, for all the right reasons. Truly one of a kind, its innovative styling and integrity of design will continue to stand the test of time.
