Positioned on an expansive allotment of 834m2 in one of Wheelers Hill's most tightly held and family-friendly pockets, 29 Sara Drive presents an exciting opportunity to secure a substantial four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence where striking architectural character, generous proportions and exceptional potential come together.
From the moment you step inside, the home reveals a wonderfully distinctive design centred around a private internal atrium, creating a beautiful connection between the living spaces while drawing an abundance of natural light deep into the home. The impressive open-plan living and dining domain is the undeniable centrepiece, featuring soaring timber-beamed cathedral ceilings, rich timber flooring and a built-in wet bar, creating an expansive environment equally suited to relaxed family living or entertaining on a grand scale.
At the heart of the home, the generous kitchen and meals area combines substantial timber cabinetry, wall ovens, excellent bench space and a practical layout, with direct visual connection to the central atrium. The result is a home that feels spacious, light-filled and remarkably versatile, while offering an exciting opportunity for those looking to bring a contemporary vision to its existing architectural foundations.
Accommodation is thoughtfully separated from the main living areas. The private master suite features built-in robes, split-system heating and cooling and a full ensuite, while bedrooms two and three are generously proportioned and positioned conveniently to the main family bathroom, complete with bathtub and separate toilet. A fourth bedroom or study near the entrance provides valuable flexibility for those working from home, accommodating guests or requiring an additional bedroom.
The practical appeal continues outdoors, where a substantial paved driveway leads to a secure double lock-up garage with direct internal access, complemented by a third full bathroom adjoining the garage, an exceptionally useful addition for workshop use, guests, tradespeople or easy access from outside. A dedicated laundry, garden shed, established gardens and generous outdoor space further enhance the home's everyday functionality.
For the astute buyer, this is an opportunity to purchase a home with genuine scope to renovate, modernise and unlock its full architectural potential. The existing design provides an impressive foundation, while the scale and flexibility of the residence allow you to create a sophisticated contemporary family home without sacrificing the character that makes it unique.
And the location is every bit as compelling. Families will appreciate the proximity to Jells Park Primary School and Wheelers Hill Secondary College, with Caulfield Grammar School, Wheelers Hill Campus, St Justin's School and other highly regarded education options also within easy reach.
For everyday convenience, Wheelers Hill Shopping Centre, Brandon Park Shopping Centre and Waverley Gardens Shopping Centre provide an excellent choice of supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, retail and essential services.
Lifestyle is equally well catered for, with the spectacular Jells Park close by, offering expansive parklands, Jells Lake, walking and cycling trails, playgrounds, picnic areas and family recreation. The nearby Mulgrave Reserve and Jells Road Reserve provide even more open space and sporting opportunities.
Golfers are also spoiled for choice, with nearby courses and recreational facilities adding to the appeal, while easy access to Springvale Road, Ferntree Gully Road, Wellington Road, the Monash Freeway and EastLink makes commuting throughout Melbourne's south-east remarkably convenient.
29 Sara Drive is not simply a home, it is a rare architectural canvas. With its soaring cathedral ceilings, timber detailing, dramatic internal atrium, four-bedroom configuration, three bathrooms, double garage and outstanding Wheelers Hill position, it offers the opportunity to move in and enjoy immediately or embark on a renovation that could transform it into something truly exceptional.
