This unique gem, just 40 km east from Melbourne's CBD, enjoys an elevated position on the sheltered southern slopes of the scenic Dandenong Ranges. You will be captivated by the panoramic vistas over beautiful treed countryside, the waters of Cardinia Reservoir and beyond to Westernport Bay. Picture windows showcase the forever changing vistas from all principal rooms.
The near 1 acre property has botanical like gardens in a private and peaceful setting. Meander down the magical tree lined sealed driveway to the double garage, large car park and to the granite stoned and paved entrance pathway.
This architecturally designed contemporary home is bathed in natural light and has many features including an open fireplace, timber cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, face brick walls, leadlight glass doors, warm solid timber floors, granite benchtops & splashbacks, bay window, Italian porcelain floor tiles and white timber plantation blinds.
The large under roofline garage/workshop has direct access into the home and onto the deck. It shares the great vistas and could, readily, be converted to a different living space.
Outdoor living and entertaining is enhanced by the spacious elevated timber deck that extends the full length of the home and out into the gardens providing breathtaking 360 degree vistas. Pathways wind through the established landscaped gardens where you will discover 100 tree ferns and other native and exotic flora including maples, magnolias, rhododendrons, hydrangeas, cabbage-palms and many more varieties.
Close to national parks, a short walk takes you to the historic steam train Puffing Billy Railway's Menzies Creek Station & museum, a Steiner early childhood campus, childcare facility, Menzies Creek Primary School and public transport services.
