At the end of a long driveway, a private sanctuary awaits. This stunning mudbrick lifestyle property on 4169sqm (approx.) brims with country charm and modern appeal. Generous proportions and thoughtful zoning make it hospitable to large and extended families, with a tranquil ambiance and native gardens sure to delight.

There are multiple living areas to choose from on the first floor, including a formal lounge and dining room with wood burning fireplace, and a family room and meals area opening to the country-style kitchen. With timber benches and cabinetry, bright Daniel Robertson tiling and Blanco appliances, it is both modern and timeless.

This is the theme for the home: a marriage of the classic and new. Stylish reclaimed features, including leadlight windows, a timber mantel from a country pub, and vintage doors have been seamlessly integrated into the home's contemporary comforts. Mudbrick walls, soaring timber ceilings, and hardwood and slate floors add warmth and character to this owner-built home.

There are three bedrooms on the first floor (master with ensuite and WIR), a sizable study, family bathroom, and laundry. Downstairs, find two additional bedrooms (one with fireplace), a large retreat, bathroom and separate entrance - ideal for teenagers or potential to create a self-contained unit

The home's highlight may be its surroundings, with verdant views that can be admired from every room, or from the verandah stretching around the entire home. Gardens are impressive, surrounded by mature trees, and are frequently visited by many native species, including wallabies, kangaroos, echidnas, and colourful birdlife. In warmer months, enjoy the stylish pool and covered entertaining area, while taking in the lovely ambiance.

Additional features include air-conditioning, ducted heating, triple garage with workshop, woodshed, vegetable patch and barbeque area.

With a distinct feeling of being 'away from it all', the home is minutes from top amenities, including Whitefriars College, Yarra Valley Grammar, Luther College, abundant parkland, Eastland, Eastlink and Ringwood Station.
