“Brigadoon” – Mid Century Classic with a Modern Twist

Mornings are something to savour at “Brigadoon.” Sunlight breaks across the valley, filtering through tree ferns and the towering canopy before reaching the covered deck, where the first coffee of the day arrives with birdsong. Set across a picturesque half acre, this character-rich 1950s weatherboard feels like a cocoon among the treetops, wrapped in greenery yet opening to views stretching towards Monbulk and the Yarra Ranges. It captures the essence of hills living: fresh air, garden freedom, a welcome sense of retreat and an easy connection to the landscape beyond.
Inside, the home’s mid-century character remains part of the story, with sash windows framing leafy outlooks, and raked ceilings and warm bamboo floors flowing through the open-plan living and dining domain. Ducted heating ensures year-round comfort, while on cooler days, the wood fire adds an extra layer of warmth and atmosphere. The contemporary kitchen provides a polished counterpoint with a central stone waterfall island and stainless-steel appliances. It’s an easy, convivial space for family dinners, homework at the breakfast bar or friends lingering around the table well after plates have been cleared.
A thoughtful extension has introduced something families will particularly appreciate: genuine separation. Two robed bedrooms and a luxurious spa-like bathroom form a private parents’ retreat, complemented by its own living area and balcony overlooking the landscape. The extension also benefits from double glazing and soundproof insulation, with the approximately three-year-old addition still covered by the builder’s warranty. At the opposite end, two further bedrooms share a sparkling family bathroom, with one enjoying a large walk-in robe and ensuite-style access, providing generous storage for the whole family. A dedicated office or nursery adds another layer of flexibility as family needs evolve.
Life in the hills naturally spills outdoors. The covered deck is made for lingering cuppas and easy entertaining, while the terraced backyard offers flat pockets of lawn for play and plenty of scope to make the landscape your own. A greenhouse will keep green thumbs happily occupied, while the rear firepit is ready for evenings when conversation and marshmallows are equally important. Citrus trees and shady gums bring a relaxed, productive feel to the rear garden, while out front, stonework and pathways weave through silver birch, golden elm, rhododendrons and magnificent tree ferns, creating that unmistakable Olinda romance.
Even the garage refuses to be ordinary. Powered with 15amp capabilities, fitted with LED lighting and warmed by its own wood heater, it offers serious potential as a workshop, creative studio or enviable tinkering retreat.
Positioned peacefully between Olinda and Monbulk, Brigadoon offers the beauty of the Ranges without surrendering everyday convenience. Monbulk’s supermarkets, cafés, schools, medical facilities, gyms and Aquatic Centre are all within approximately seven minutes, while fresh-air adventures begin virtually at the doorstep.
