Overview

Set on approximately 2.03 acres, this character-filled 1970s home offers a rare combination of expansive space and tranquil bushland living, just five minutes from Healesville. The fully fenced grounds feature a blend of natural bushland, manicured lawns, and established gardens, including a separate pony paddock, inviting outdoor lifestyles enhanced by frequent visits from native wildlife and abundant birdlife visible from every window.

The home’s layout prioritizes privacy and family functionality, with the main bedroom positioned separately offering a walk-in robe, ensuite, and private porch, while the other three bedrooms, each with built-in robes, are grouped with a new family bathroom and hallway storage to the opposite side. The kitchen, serving as the home's heart, boasts mountain views, modern appliances including a gas stove and dishwasher, and seamlessly opens to a covered outdoor entertaining area.

Comfort is a key feature throughout the home, with gas ducted heating, multiple split systems, evaporative cooling, ceiling fans, and a Sanden Eco heat-pump hot water system optimizing energy efficiency. Living spaces include a main living room with a wood heater for cozy winters and a separate lounge area potentially configured as a bar, opening onto a deck that overlooks the peaceful gardens and bushland, perfect for relaxation or entertaining.

Outdoor living is equally inviting with ample lawn space for children, an established vegetable garden, fruit trees, and numerous utility sheds including a chook shed, woodshed, two garden sheds, and a workshop. Parking is conveniently handled by a double carport, and a large 5,500-litre water tank supports the garden’s watering needs.

This property is ideally suited to families seeking a private, spacious home in a beautiful rural setting while remaining close to the conveniences of Healesville. It offers a lifestyle centered around nature, self-sufficiency with gardening and poultry, and comfortable year-round living possibilities within a classic yet versatile residence ready to be enjoyed and made one's own for years to come.
