Last Listing description (April 2025)

Some homes whisper a welcome; this one greets you with an enchanting, leafy embrace. Tucked away in the foothills of Mount Dandenong, a secret-like driveway draped in ornamental pear trees beckons you down, inviting curiosity about what lies beyond. What unfolds is a home that tells a story - one that began in 1940, with gorgeous vintage elements still intact, and has evolved into a breathtaking, split-level sanctuary designed for modern family living.

Inside, the original wing retains its old-world soul - high ceilings, sash windows, rich timber boards, and a double-sided brick fireplace that has warmed generations. The sitting area is a place to linger, with the original AT Dover cast iron wood heater still standing proudly, a relic of British craftsmanship, or why not embrace the work from home trend and use the space as a nook for work or quiet contemplation. On the other side, a cosy lounge with an open fireplace invites deep conversations and slow Sunday afternoons, while two bedrooms here share a modern bathroom.

Step into the heart of the home and feel the rhythm change. The open-plan living and meals area flows effortlessly over gleaming, rich-hued timber floors, anchored by a striking kitchen where stone waterfall counters, a social breakfast bar, a 900mm stainless steel cooker, soft-close drawers, and a luxe walk-in pantry with display shelving set the scene for culinary creativity and entertaining. A wall of glass sliders dissolves the boundary between inside and out, revealing an entertainer’s dream - a vast, covered deck with a built-in outdoor kitchen, complete with a gas BBQ, bar fridge, and sink. There’s ample room for lounging, a long table for feasts under festoon lights, and space for a pool table should your inner entertainer demand it.

The newer wing introduces two additional bedrooms, including a master suite designed to be lingered in. Dual walk-in robes provide a luxurious dressing space, while the ensuite is pure indulgence - a freestanding clawfoot bath, double timber-topped vanity, and the kind of serenity that makes you want to light a candle and soak away the day.

Beyond the deck, the backyard is a wonderland for all ages. A children’s playground with a cubby and climbing frame sparks adventure, a lawn invites barefoot games of chase, and a dedicated homegrown corner - bursting with raised veggie beds, fruit trees, and a fragrant herb garden - ensures fresh produce is just a few steps from the kitchen. But the pièce de résistance? Direct gate access to Richards Reserve, offering superb privacy, an inviting leafy outlook and a shortcut to the village for morning coffees or impromptu picnics in the community park.

Positioned for lifestyle ease, this remarkable home is just a short walk to Montrose Primary and moments from the adventure playground, village shops, and sporting fields. Buses to Lilydale and Ringwood stations are within easy reach, making commutes effortless.

A home with heart, history, and a flair for entertaining - will you be the one to write its next chapter?
