Tucked away at the very end of a no-through road with no neighbours in sight, 65 Clark Road presents a rare opportunity to secure an iconic mudbrick residence designed and built in 1983 by the renowned Alistair Knox — affectionately known as the godfather of mid-century design and one of Australia’s greatest pioneers of mudbrick architecture. Celebrated for their earthy textures, organic forms and deep connection to the landscape, Knox homes are incredibly sought-after, and this magnificent example is no exception.
Set on 4.7 breathtaking, park-like acres surrounded by farmland, the property offers total privacy amongst beautiful established trees, curated gardens and rolling green lawns. The mudbricks were crafted onsite from the property’s own dam, while many of the internal timbers were milled from fallen trees on the land — a testament to Knox’s philosophy of building in harmony with nature. Stunning slate floors flow through the main living zones, and raked ceilings with north-facing highlight windows invite abundant natural light throughout the day.
The heart of the home is the spectacular main lounge, kitchen and dining area, framed by enormous picture windows that draw the outdoors in. The renovated kitchen features quality appliances, an electric upright stove, dishwasher and a superb walk-in butler’s pantry with excellent storage. A cosy, earthy sitting area off the lounge with an open fireplace and private external access provides an ideal consulting room or intimate retreat.
Accommodation includes a generous master suite with walk-in wardrobe and a beautifully updated ensuite with walk-in, no-step shower for ease of access. The second bedroom is exceptionally large with direct access to the family bathroom, while the third bedroom also offers great space — all with built-in robes. A separate children’s sitting/play area, large laundry and mud room with additional shower complete the highly functional floorplan.
Outdoors, the full wrap-around verandah and large covered north-facing alfresco area provide the perfect setting for year-round entertaining. The acreage is beautifully appointed with two dams, an established orchard, fenced veggie garden, stables, secure pony paddock, and dual driveway access plus a double carport. A solar system and solar hot water help keep running costs down, while the home has been exceptionally well maintained and lovingly cared for.
Whether you’re seeking the perfect horse property, room for a few cows, or simply a private sanctuary to unwind in complete peace and quiet, this enchanting estate delivers it all. Offering the quintessential country lifestyle just 35 minutes to Pakenham and Cranbourne, and 90 minutes to the CBD, it is a truly unique home ready for its lucky new owner to enjoy.
