EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST CLOSING TUESDAY, 2ND JUNE (UNLESS SOLD PRIOR)
Showcasing the unmistakable craftsmanship of renowned local architect Alistair Knox, this remarkable mudbrick home reflects his philosophy of natural materials, connection to the landscape, and relaxed living. A rich palette of exposed timbers, redbrick floors, and bushland views from every window gives the home a strong sense of character.
The thoughtfully designed floorplan reveals a spacious lounge and dining room beneath soaring vaulted ceilings, centred around an open fire and framed by large windows that draw the outdoors in. The adjoining kitchen is appointed with timber benches, quality appliances and a walk-in pantry, while a step-down billiards room with an open fire extends outdoors to the pool and entertaining areas.
Upstairs, a light-filled mezzanine retreat with clerestory windows offers a flexible space for work, study, or relaxation. Thoughtfully zoned accommodation includes the master with a walk-in robe, private ensuite and verandah access, while a teenager’s retreat and two additional bedrooms share the central family bathroom.
Adding exceptional versatility, a rustic one-bedroom cottage with its own courtyard, living area, kitchen, and ensuite provides ideal accommodation for extended family, guests or independent living.
Set on over an acre of beautiful bushland with direct access to the Aqueduct Trail, the property invites a relaxed outdoor lifestyle, complete with quiet alfresco zones, a solar-heated pool with a cabana, custom seating, and a life-size chessboard. Additional features include hydronic heating, split-system air conditioning in cottage, a mix of redbrick and hardwood floors, a double carport and attached home office, a huge workshop/studio, and extensive off-street parking. Land: 4,734sqm approx.
The home is moments from Research Pre-School, Research Primary School and Research Central, within the catchment zone for Diamond Valley College and close to Eltham College, Diamond Creek Shopping Centre, and bus and train services, Eltham Village, and surrounding parks and walking trails.
