40a Fernhill Road, Mount Evelyn, Vic 3796

Quietly tucked away at the end of a sweeping driveway, this picturesque and incredibly spacious property is full of surprises and promises a life of peace and tranquility.

On a generous block, this amazing cottage style home is entered via an extensive covered front verandah and through the front door where warming wooden floorboards adorn an open entrance hall.

A large, sun-filled front living room enjoys plenty of natural light, a cosy Coonara style wood fire in the corner and ample room for the couches and coffee table.

The hallway culminates with a huge open plan, family, dining and kitchen area which features built-in stainless steel gas cooking and oven, range hood and dishwasher, a pantry, breakfast bar and bright wooden benches.

Opening out to a magnificent covered entertaining deck, the second living space provides yet another place to entertain family and friends.

With beautiful bay windows, the master bedroom is a great place to retreat, incorporating a walk-in robe with a spacious en-suite. Additional bedrooms all have built-in robes and connect to the central bathroom which has a separate shower and inset bath.

An abundance of built-in storage highlights a functional laundry which provides another access point to the expansive backyard.

With a great amount of private, grassed space in amongst well-established trees, storage sheds, garden beds and vegetable patches, this really is a big and brilliant backyard with a bush feel.

In a home with much to reveal, the bonus of a home office/teenager's retreat or studio with direct street access further contributes to a complete home.

Gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, wood sheds and a water tank are bonuses in a fantastic package close to Fernhill Pre-School, Yarra Hills Secondary College, Mt Evelyn shops and cafes, Hereford and York roads, with easy access to Swansea Road, the Maroondah Highway and Eastlink.
