17 Ridge Road

Kalorama VIC 3766

The whimsical layout unfolds with character at every turn. A sunroom creates a gentle transition to the main bedroom, where treetop views greet you each morning. Below, a spiral staircase leads to two additional bedrooms and a versatile open space ideal as a home office or creative retreat.

Outside, the gardens offer a delightful blend of structured landscaping and natural beauty with towering tree ferns adding allure. Dappled sun shifts through the seasons, inviting you to wander, pause and admire the evergreen outlook. In winter, when the leaves fall away, glimpses of Silvan Dam emerge, glimmering quietly in the distance.

Practical features include gas ducted heating, split system comfort, under-house storage, a garden shed and off-street parking, while the location places you moments from Destiny Point caf, walking trails, lookouts, villages and some of the Dandenong Ranges most iconic attractions.

Charming, character-filled and wonderfully unique, this is a cottage that invites you to slow down and savour the setting.
