Constructed in harmony with the natural bushland surroundings, this meticulously crafted residence, set on approximately 14 acres of picturesque landscape, showcases breathtaking vistas of the Warburton hills. Aptly named "Haldegarte," signifying "garden on the hill," this property encompasses a handcrafted Jarrah timber and mudbrick dwelling, alongside a separate guest cottage, spacious workshop, and ample shedding.

Native gardens seamlessly intertwine with the interior, creating a cohesive indoor-outdoor space that is simultaneously open and intimate, fostering a sense of tranquillity and connection with nature. The unique facade of this character property presents a striking visual, while the interior features magnificent Jarrah beams, soaring pitched timber-clad ceilings and an abundance of windows and doors, ensuring a constant connection with the leafy environment and the Upper Yarra Valley.

The principal dwelling boasts four spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms and additional WC. The living room, featuring a grand open fireplace and cathedral ceiling, adjoins the kitchen and dining and extends to a generous outdoor entertaining area perfectly positioned to enjoy sweeping views and the sounds of native birdlife. The kitchen, both aesthetically pleasing and functional, integrates timber cabinetry with generous storage, a walk-in pantry, two Miele ovens, and a Bosch gas cooktop.

The main bedroom serves as a serene retreat, complete with built-in robes, an ensuite, and powder room. In a separate wing, three bedrooms, one king and two queen rooms, share the property's second bathroom.

The detached guest accommodation boasts remarkable views from the veranda. Inside the wood lined cottage, you will find a living area with wood fireplace and kitchenette and a queen bedroom with spacious ensuite. The cottage offers a tranquil space separate from the main residence and a potential income stream as self-contained holiday accommodation.

Designed to facilitate both everyday living and entertaining, the expansive gardens incorporate a firepit area, tiered vegetable garden, abundant fruit trees and a timber deck with sweeping views. A large, grassed area beyond the entry to the property offers a practice hole for golf enthusiasts.

Additional features of this exceptional property include a double carport, a rear garage with loft storage, cooling, hydronic floor heating, a professionally constructed fire bunker, roller shutters on all windows, a large shed with a dedicated bike workshop area, and a 9ft x 4ft pool table (included with the property), as well as a machinery shed and a workshop.

Despite its secluded nature, this remarkable home is conveniently situated within walking or biking distance of the vibrant Warburton lifestyle, encompassing the village's esteemed cafes, galleries, and boutiques. Accessible leisure activities include cycling the popular Rail Trail or upcoming mountain bike tracks, golf, tennis and walking the beautiful surrounds of the Yarra River. Serving as the epitome of mountain tranquillity, it is ideally suited for permanent residency or as an accessible weekend retreat, just a 90-minute drive from Melbourne.
