Brimming with character in a magical setting, this fully restored and renovated cottage is tucked away on a whisper-quiet no-through road at the edge of the Dandenong Ranges National Park. Radiating charm, serenity, and endless possibilities, it?s perfect for first-home buyers, downsizers, or anyone longing for a character-filled foothills retreat. This enchanting property blends timeless character with modern comforts, all wrapped in lush gardens and the soothing soundtrack of birdsong.
Inside, the warm glow of reclaimed French oak floors greets you, setting the tone for a home where vintage charm meets contemporary finesse. The stone topped kitchen is a chef?s delight, complete with an island bench with social breakfast bar, 900mm stainless steel cooker, and plenty of storage for your culinary treasures. The connected meals zone glows under skylights for family dining, retreat to the cosy carpeted lounge for a movie night or escape to the separate home office with floor-to-ceiling storage, a space designed to spark creativity or productivity. The fully tiled skylit bathroom, with its double vanity and indulgent rain shower, feels like your personal day spa. When it?s time to entertain, French doors lead to a wraparound deck adorned with twinkling festoon lights - a magical spot for alfresco dinners or quiet mornings soaking in the peace as the kids happily play in sight.
Set on a half-acre canvas of gently terraced grounds, the gardens are a celebration of nature. Spring bulbs burst into life, while dahlias, foxgloves, and hollyhocks bring pops of vibrant colour and attract the bees and butterflies that flit among the gardens. Rockeries adorn each level including a flat, fully fenced area off the deck - perfect for kids, pets, or perhaps a firepit under starry skies. For those seeking flexibility, a separate studio offers endless options: a creative retreat, gym, or home office. Add in a horseshoe driveway and ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, and you?ve got a property that?s as practical as it is picturesque.
Nestled on the edge of the Dandenong Ranges National Park, this home delivers the quintessential foothills lifestyle. Grab your morning coffee at Cook?s Corner, stroll through Kallista?s charming Main Street, or lose yourself in the beauty of nearby Sherbrooke Forest. With the Yarra Valley?s wineries and gourmet dining just a short drive away, weekends will never lack inspiration. A welcoming community, stunning scenery, and endless adventures - this is foothills living at its finest.
