16 Mountain Drive, Mooroolbark, Vic 3138

Beautifully set back in an idyllic position, this undeniably expansive and secluded family retreat is a picturesque package of open living spaces and quality touches.

Beginning with magnificently landscaped front gardens and a sweeping driveway, a small staircase takes you up to an incredible wrap-around balcony that takes in amazing views to the Dandenong Ranges and beyond.

A tiled foyer and warming carpets welcome you through the front door, extending right through to a huge open living and dining area with built-in bar, feature fireplace and plenty of windows perfectly placed to take in those spectacular views.

A second living area with a wood fire blends seamlessly with a brilliant open plan family, dining and kitchen space which incorporates stunning wood benches, built-in gas cooking, a wall-mounted gas oven, dishwasher and an extensive breakfast bar, plus an abundance of storage.

Three bedrooms off the hallway have built-in robes, the master incorporating a walk-in robe and en-suite with twin vanity. All are central to the main bathroom which has a separate inset bath, corner shower and vanity.

Sliding doors off the family area lead out to an elevated entertaining deck which overlooks a second covered outdoor entertaining precinct with a built-in mains connected gas barbecue and plenty of room for the table and chairs.

A side pathway leads to a private backyard sanctuary where the kids and pets will spend hours exploring. This also connects to a clever under house rumpus/gym/study or home office and plenty of additional storage.

In a home with nothing to do but move in and enjoy for many years, home security system, gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, 2 wood fires, a wood shed, 2 car garage with workshop and drive through gates to the backyard are added bonuses.

Within walking distance to the Bushy Creek Linear Trail, close to Pembroke Primary School and Billanook College, plus with proximity to Mooroolbark Station, shopping, restaurants and cafes, Cambridge Road, Canterbury Road, Mt Dandenong Road, the Maroondah Highway and Eastlink.
