Subscribe to regular market updates. Set within Eltham’s natural bushland landscape, this architect-designed residence presents a rare and considered approach to modern living — a contemporary “treehouse” that sits lightly within its environment while capturing sweeping views toward the Kinglake Ranges. Thoughtfully crafted in response to its steeply sloping site, the home embraces its northern orientation and elevated position, with living spaces lifted into the canopy to maximise natural light, privacy and connection to the surrounding landscape. The result is a home that feels both immersed in nature and effortlessly functional. A striking double-height living domain forms the heart of the home, where expansive glazing frames the treetop outlook and invites natural light deep into the interior. Warm timber linings and integrated joinery create a cohesive and calming aesthetic, while the open-plan living and dining zone flows seamlessly to outdoor decks, offering an ever-changing backdrop of greenery and distant ranges. The kitchen is designed for both practicality and simplicity, complementing the home’s refined material palette and connection to its surroundings. Across two levels, the flexible four-bedroom layout is enhanced by additional study and rumpus spaces, catering to families, professionals and those working from home. Completed in 2020, the home showcases a commitment to quality and innovation, constructed using prefabricated timber panels for precision and efficiency, and built to Passivhaus principles for exceptional performance. Triple-glazed windows, an airtight building envelope and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery ensure a consistently comfortable indoor environment, while a 6.6kW solar system with battery storage supports low energy living. Entirely electric and designed with sustainability at its core, the home also features a green roof, integrated water storage and an electric vehicle charger, reinforcing its forward-thinking approach to modern living. Set on a generous 723m² (approx.) allotment, the property offers a private and peaceful setting surrounded by established trees, with multiple outdoor spaces designed to engage with the landscape. Despite its tranquil position, it remains conveniently close to Eltham’s shops, schools, transport and parklands. A home of architectural integrity, environmental sensitivity and everyday comfort, this is a truly unique opportunity to secure a contemporary residence that redefines the relationship between design and nature.
