Originally constructed for a resident doctor, little has been spared in the design and construction of this huge 5 Bedroom and Study home, sure to please the most fastidious of buyers, located in the heart of the Yarra Valley and only 25 mins drive from Lilydale train station.
Set in a very quiet position, on a sealed road, yet less than 500 metres from the Warburton Highway, the land slopes very gently to the east, with the home ideally positioned to make the most of glorious mornings with rays of sunlight streaming into the kitchen and family living areas.
The Ground floor provides 2 large separate, spacious living rooms and open-plan living for kitchen, dining and family areas, allowing flow through to the outdoor, timber decked entertaining area, commanding a backdrop of fruit trees and expansive lawns behind and along-side the home. Also on the ground floor, are a study, laundry and powder room and a door providing internal access to the large double garage.
Throughout, the home is airy and bright with lighter shades of decor as an elegant staircase rises to access all 5 bedrooms on the first floor including the master bedroom which is complimented with a large bathroom including, spa bath and shower and adjacent, access to a “walk in robe”. Another bathroom with shower and toilet, services all other bedrooms on this top floor, each of which have built in robes.
A Western style barn sits alongside the home and inside it has a mezzanine floor, bench top work areas and running water to a toilet and shower with vanity.
Serviced by mains water and mains gas there is ducted heating throughout the home with the addition of electric split systems, ensuring year-round comfortable climate control. 16 solar panels pour power back into the grid and rainwater from the barn is collected and stored into tanks, pressurized for effective garden usage.
This is a genuine “lifestyle” property with gently sloping land sown to permanent pasture and well fenced into a couple of paddocks making an ideal home for a horse or two.
