120 Ridge Road

Mount Dandenong VIC 3767

Accommodation includes two generous bedrooms with fresh new carpet and picture rails, plus a flexible third bedroom or home office with a charming barn door entrance. The bathroom has been thoughtfully updated, featuring a luxe corner rain shower that introduces a contemporary edge to the home’s heritage feel.

Outdoors is where the home truly reveals its magic. The gardens unfold as a layered, living tapestry - stone pathways winding through a kaleidoscope of rhododendrons, camellias, azaleas, magnolias and the shady canopy of a magnificent walnut tree. There’s a productive side too, with a flourishing veggie patch, potting shed and a very fancy hen house ready for those drawn to a more self-sufficient lifestyle.

Everywhere you turn, there’s a place to pause. A front verandah for morning coffee as luminous sunbeams filter through the trees, enchanting succulent beds and fairy nooks, stretches of lawn and tucked-away corners where you can sit quietly as birds flit between branches. By night, festoon lights cast a soft glow across the alfresco zone, and the garden takes on an entirely different mood.

Practical features include dual access via Ridge Road and Ornata Road, tandem garaging, ample off-street parking, a large laundry/mudroom, attic storage and split system comfort.

Scenic walking trails, the bus stop and Mount Dandenong Village nearby, Baxter Ridge offers a lifestyle that feels worlds away - yet remains beautifully connected whether it’s a weekend retreat or a place to lay roots.
