CHARMING FAMILY HOME, SPELLBINDING GARDEN & PLENTY OF PARKING

A spellbinding garden setting with sweeping driveway among breathtaking natural surrounds, makes a magical first impression on approach to this charming weatherboard home. Filtered views to the Dandenong Ranges and gate at the rear to the Aqueduct trail add further appeal, while superb deciduous trees bring summer shade and let the sun shine in in the cooler months. An expansive semi open living, dining and kitchen is supported by four bedrooms along with car accommodation comprising single garage/mancave and carport as well as an abundance of off-street parking, ideal for caravan, boats, trailer etc. (up to seven vehicles including carport and garage).
A relaxed front veranda gives a warm welcome and offers a wonderful vantage point from which to enjoy the outlook, one of a number in this beautifully presented garden full of hidden corners, lush plantings, superb tree ferns and fruit trees. An entry space opens to an expansive living area and updated kitchen and dining. A cosy wood heater adds atmosphere and warmth along with split system heater/air conditioner. Dual aspect views to the front and backyards offers a superb visual connection to the outdoors.
Cook for one or a multitude in the updated kitchen featuring generous storage including walk in pantry. Move the island bench aside when wanting to rearrange the kitchen/dining space, the layout is flexible and spacious. Leading out through a glass door in the kitchen, discover a covered courtyard offering the perfect spot for alfresco dining or simply to enjoy a cup of coffee.
With two bedrooms off a hallway to the side, and two including master to the front, the home offers a peaceful space for family members to retreat. A large refreshed bathroom with toilet provides an expansive space in which to prepare for the day. Perfectly quirky and characterful, the home features a sunroom at the front currently used as a laundry with a fabulous outlook. The laundry could be returned to its original position if required, while the sunroom would make an ideal artist studio or parents retreat off the master.
Complementing the home, the garden offers a serene retreat, so private in fact, that you don’t realise that the Aqueduct trail runs along the rear of the property allowing easy access to central Mt Evelyn. Stroll along to the IGA, grab a coffee or Saturday breakfast at a choice of cafes or explore the Warburton Trail from this central leafy location. This friendly neighbourhood is near schools, Lilydale Lake and Mooroolbark and Lilydale stations with lovely nurseries close by. Additional features include single carport and garage, ideal as a mancave. Both enjoy a wonderful garden outlook along with separate studio offering an excellent teen retreat or hobby centre.
