Nestled behind a charming picket fence, where lush tree ferns sway in the crisp mountain air, this palatial 36-square retreat is a family sanctuary of space, style, and serenity. A storybook façade of stone and dormer windows hints at the charm within - a home that has evolved over the years, hosting milestones, echoing with laughter, and embracing the ever-changing rhythms of family life. With Sherbrooke Forest as a breathtaking backdrop, this split-level haven seamlessly blends inspired design with modern comforts, adapting effortlessly to large family and multi-generational living.
Step inside, where earthy slate floors, and plush carpets create an inviting embrace under a canopy of architectural intrigue. The heart of the home is a gleaming stone kitchen, where stainless steel appliances, a 900mm gas cooktop, electric oven, dishwasher, walk-in pantry, and breakfast bar set the stage for everything from rushed school mornings to lingering dinner conversations. An expansive family/dining zone spills into a sunken lounge room with a built-in wood fire and a wet bar - tailor-made for entertainers. Alfresco decks extend the living outdoors, overlooking terraced gardens that unfold with serene beauty.
Tucked away for privacy, the bedrooms offer quiet sanctuaries, each with space for study or reflection. The master retreat is an opulent escape with a bay window seat, shoe closet, double-basin ensuite, and ample built-in robes. Upstairs, the ‘north wing’ is a dedicated kids/teen zone or multi-generational haven with three spacious attic-style bedrooms, a fully tiled bathroom, a retreat area, and a striking leadlight window. A fifth bedroom at the entrance, with an adjacent powder room, is the perfect home office or could be reconfigured as an independent living space such is its proximity to the front living room with pebble fireplace and French doors.
Outdoors, a salt-chlorinated pool immersed among the gardens, a sun-kissed poolside deck and multiple alfresco zones - including a paved patio with a built-in gas BBQ - set the scene for relaxed living and entertaining. Dual driveways with auto gates, a double auto garage with an attached workshop, a single carport, and ample off-street parking ensure space for every adventure, whether it's a van, trailer, or tradie setup.
A hidden wine cellar under the house is primed for your prized collection, while ducted heating, refrigerated heating/cooling, a drying cupboard, solar skylights, rainwater tanks, and app-operated CCTV enhance effortless living. A rare blend of nature and convenience, this stunning home is moments from Tecoma and Belgrave’s vibrant village life yet feels like a private escape in the hills.
