Hidden within one of Ferny Creek's most enchanting lanes, just off the area's coveted 'Golden Mile', lies a property rich in promise. Set across almost an acre (approximately 4053 Sqm) of established gardens, ancient trees cast shifting shadows across rolling lawns while meandering pathways invite exploration and discovery. Held by just two owners throughout its remarkable 116-year history, it offers a rare opportunity to become the next custodian of a truly special landscape, where abundant birdlife, visiting wildlife and a resident lyrebird bring a touch of everyday magic.
Light filters effortlessly through the home, settling into the living spaces and drawing your gaze outward at every opportunity. In the lounge and dining room, a Nectre wood fire creates a natural gathering point, while a generous picture window frames the garden like a living artwork, changing with the seasons and always offering something new to admire. Nearby, the kitchen and meals area is practical and welcoming, ready to serve comfortably today while offering scope for future inspiration.
There is an appealing simplicity to the layout: Three spacious bedrooms, a central bathroom, and ample opportunity to renovate, extend or reimagine over time (STCA). Freshly painted interiors, new bedroom flooring and timber floors underfoot create a comfortable foundation, while every room maintains a connection to the landscape beyond, as though the garden is quietly woven into daily life.
And then there is the setting itself.
This is no ordinary garden, but a living, breathing sanctuary. Ancient tulip and linden trees stand sentinel over ponds that shimmer in the changing light, while a gazebo offers a peaceful place to pause and absorb the beauty around you. Rolling lawns weave between cottage gardens and native plantings, revealing hidden corners that invite reflection, conversation or simply a moment of stillness. The resident lyrebird makes regular appearances, transforming an ordinary afternoon into something memorable.
From the rear terrace, the outlook opens westward to distant vistas and spectacular sunsets that gently bring each day to a close. It's the kind of place where guests stay longer than planned, where a cup of tea can turn into an hour spent watching the garden, and where nature quietly sets the pace.
Positioned within the exclusive One Tree Hill Road precinct and moments from village life, schools and walking trails, this is a property rich in character and opportunity, ready for its next custodian to leave their own mark on a landscape decades in the making.
