27 Mandl Close, Lilydale, Vic 3140

Occupying an elevated block opposite Lillydale Lake, this architect-designed home welcomes you with a burst of natural light streaming through north-facing clerestory windows. Just 10 years young, this spacious split-level abode commences with the master bedroom and its large ensuite and walk-in robe, continuing to another 3 robed bedrooms and the family bathroom with a spa.

Polished Tasmanian Oak floors are a highlight, gracing the dining room with high, angular ceilings reaching 4 metres and the living room, featuring a gas log fireplace and 3m ceilings. . Equipped with Caesarstone benchtops, a stainless steel dishwasher and 900mm Ilve cooking appliances (gas cooktop, electric oven), the central kitchen has 2 breakfast benches and flows outside to a north-facing merbau deck. The dining and living rooms access a wraparound terrace with mains-gas BBQ plumbing, offering an elevated yet private space for alfresco entertaining.

The lower-ground level can be whatever you like! Enjoying independent and internal entry, the versatile studio/retreat space is accompanied by a toilet and kitchenette and would suit a home theatre, office or potentially self-contained accommodation.

Landscaped to optimize the 732 sq m approx. the irrigated garden has vegetable plots and a mini-orchard of thriving citrus trees. Further highlights of this contemporary house include: Lennox ducted heating and refrigerated cooling, LED downlights, dual roller blinds and remote-controlled roller shutters, a water tank and a double auto garage with internal access.

In a sophisticated cul-de-sac, walk the Warburton Trail and enjoy proximity to buses and Lillydale Lake, with nearby Lilydale shops, cafes, schools and train station.
