Set high on an elevated block amongst towering gumtrees and abundant visiting birdlife, this authentic Eltham mudbrick residence on a generous 1506m² allotment (approx.) delivers warmth, character and exceptional privacy.
Embraced by its natural surroundings, the home captures peaceful garden outlooks from almost every room while offering a lifestyle that feels worlds away yet remains close to every convenience.
Mudbrick homes are renowned for their sustainability, durability and natural thermal efficiency, keeping interiors cool in summer and warm throughout winter. Thoughtfully updated while honouring its rustic charm, this inviting retreat blends timeless character with modern comfort in a tranquil bushland setting.
Highlighted by soaring vaulted cathedral ceilings and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that frame a beautiful native treetop backdrop, the generous living and dining domain is the heart of the home. A Jetmaster fireplace provides warmth and ambience on cooler evenings, while Tasmanian oak floors bring natural elegance throughout.
Showcasing Caesarstone porcelain benchtops and splashback, a Franke stone sink, a full suite of premium Bosch appliances (including a pyrolytic oven), and forest-green shaker cabinetry with soft-close drawers and brushed bronze handles, the stylish new kitchen has been carefully designed to complement the home's unique mudbrick character.
Sharing the ground floor is a main bedroom adjacent to a sumptuous bathroom featuring micro-cement finishes, mudbrick and leadlight features, and a deep clawfoot bath.
The first floor introduces two bedrooms enhanced by vaulted ceilings and sharing a delightful Jack-and-Jill bathroom.
Stepping outside reveals a private sanctuary designed for relaxation and entertaining. Lush, easy-care native gardens form a relaxing backdrop to a choice of decked entertaining areas. Wrapping around the house to deliver a variety of spaces for outdoor enjoyment, they are complemented by a beautiful rustic arbor complete with a striking Corten steel firepit that combines to provide an ideal space to unwind. Adding to the outdoor appeal, garden lighting creates dramatic shadows through the foliage, enhancing the peaceful ambience.
Further extras include a versatile home office/studio/teen retreat integrated into the lower ground floor, a carport with extra parking, efficient and discreet hydronic heating, ceiling fans, a split-system unit, a new laundry boasting porcelain finishes, built-in robes to all bedrooms, and a garden watering system.
Located in a quiet no-through road within the St Helena College zone, this special property enjoys a wonderful sense of community while being moments from parks, walking trails and local amenities. A short stroll leads to the Aqueduct Trail or Eltham Woods shops, while nearby schools, childcare and vibrant village cafés further enhance the lifestyle appeal.
