Welcome to “Maple Lodge,” a serene sanctuary where modern design meets hillside charm, set in the heart of Mount Dandenong’s lush landscape. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom haven is ideal as a weekend escape or attractive for professionals, downsizers, tree-changers, or creatives who will be drawn to the quiet beauty and restorative atmosphere, which provides a welcome reprieve from the urban rush. With its mid-century appeal and flowing single-level layout, the home offers a peaceful retreat immersed in nature’s beauty, cradled behind remote gates for ultimate privacy. Imagine mornings with an easterly sunrise filtering through picture windows, bathing the open-plan living spaces in a soft glow.
A cosy Coonara warms a sitting area with access to the rear gardens, whilst a double-sided gas log fire adds an elegant ambiance to the expansive lounging and meals zone, framed by walls of glass doors that lead to a garden-wrapped entertaining terrace with a serene pond. Here, you’ll find yourself surrounded by vibrant blooms - from azaleas in an array of hues to elegant weeping cherry and tulip trees - creating a year-round garden masterpiece. The kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring waterfall stone benchtops, premium stainless-steel appliances, and ample room for creativity with a stunning garden view from the double sink. A connected meals zone flows to an infinity edge decking that seamlessly integrates with the garden providing a magical backdrop for quiet moments or entertaining. An enchanting gazebo further provides a private perch to enjoy the calm.
The master suite offers direct access to the front deck, complete with a walk-in robe and a modern ensuite featuring a double basin vanity and a chic fully tiled marble look finish. Meanwhile, the main bathroom includes a bath, bidet, and a one-way glass window that captures views of a tranquil garden - a true spa-like escape. At the rear terraced gardens allow you to climb to a flat level of lawn and enjoy the easterly outlook, whilst at the entrance lashings of lush lawn unfolds where you can picnic under the majestic shade trees or let kids run and play. Set on over half an acre of expertly tended grounds, Maple Lodge is your own botanical paradise. Nestled among million-dollar properties, it’s just a stone’s throw from Mount Dandenong Village and the Dandenong Ranges’ best offerings, like Sky High, Olinda Falls, and the beloved Pig and Whistle Tavern.
Come toast to a lifestyle of peaceful elegance and boundless inspiration in the hills.
