Nestled in the leafy embrace of the Dandenong Ranges, this charming 1970s brick veneer home on over half an acre tells a story of generations raised among nature’s beauty. Once a cherished holiday retreat, it has since been thoughtfully updated to meet the needs of modern living while retaining its original warmth and character. Set amid a breathtaking English-style garden, this is a home that offers tranquility, comfort, and a connection to the ever-changing tapestry of the seasons.
Fresh updates - including new carpet, paint, window furnishings, and lighting - have brought new life to the interiors, while the lush surroundings remain as enchanting as ever. Every window frames a leafy vista, drawing the outdoors in and ensuring you’re always connected to the beauty of the landscape.
The light-filled lounge and dining area open via bi-fold doors to a generous deck, where you can sip your morning coffee to the sounds of birdsong, or soak in the garden’s seasonal splendor. A timber-topped kitchen, complete with a casual meals area and sleek stainless-steel appliances serves as the home’s inviting heart. Chef designed with a focus on functionality - the bright kitchen features an abundance of storage (including a walk in pantry), extensive bench/workspaces, deep dual sinks and brand new Bosch dishwasher and oven/cooktop to service both family and entertaining.
Three spacious bedrooms provide restful retreats, while a fully tiled, renovated bathroom delivers a sense of everyday luxury with a rain shower, floating vanity and a deep soak bath under soft pendant lights. A mudroom-style laundry, complete with coat storage and a second toilet, adds a practical touch.
Outside, meandering paths wind through magnificent camellias, rhododendrons, acers, magnolias, windflowers and lush tree ferns, creating a garden paradise that changes with the seasons. An apple, pear, and nectarine tree provide juicy fresh fruit, while a charming pizza oven invites alfresco feasts under the stars.
With an abundance of birdlife, a fully fenced boundary, secure entrance gates, gas ducted heating, a double carport, two garden sheds, and a new instant hot water system, this home is as practical as it is picturesque. All of this, just moments from Olinda Village, top schools, and transport.
