There is something quite extraordinary about a property that makes the city feel far away while keeping it close, yet this 3,034 sq. metre (approx.) property on the very edge of suburbia does exactly that. Offering a 3-bedroom, 2-lounge home and self-contained 1-bedroom residence backed by a protected green wedge and views that stretch, uninterrupted, across the region, it's a home of pure magic with the substance to match.

Its distinctive style takes you over from the second you step inside, with a sunbathed lounge with a wood fireplace sitting beside a central kitchen attuned to the movement of everyday life, replete with quality electric appliances and masses of storage and bench space. An L-shaped lounge and dining room also flaunts fireside comfort with a wood flue heater, stepping out to a warm, north-facing sunroom and a fantastic deck wrapped around a water feature, breathing in those incredible views over the green wedge and out towards the Dandenong Ranges.

It's out here where you'll really feel the magic, undeniably calm with the rest of the world within view, yet always feeling so far removed. Back inside, the three comfortable bedrooms line a hallway with a twin-vanity bathroom and powder room, led by a master suite with a wall of robes and a stunning hidden ensuite. A wonder for those with in-laws or older children, the 1-bedroom self-contained residence under the same roofline features its own kitchenette and lounge, a large bedroom, a bathroom, and a covered deck that also takes in those breathtaking scenes.
