Two households under one roof, teenagers with their own zone, grandparents close but independent, guests who can stay without taking over, or an income stream quietly working in the background. Set on approximately 1,399m² with the Dandenong Ranges rising behind and Montrose township just footsteps away, this tastefully updated home embraces the family-compound trend with rare versatility and room to evolve.
Renovated in 2019 and thoughtfully configured, the main residence is generous in every sense. Four exceptionally spacious bedrooms include a secluded main suite with ensuite and deep soaking bath, while a separate three-bedroom wing is served by an AS1428-accessible bathroom with roll-in shower, grab rails, shower seat and ambulant toilet.
Two interconnected living zones give the household options throughout the day. Keep them open and social when everyone comes together or create quieter pockets when a little separation is needed. Five spectacular skylights draw natural light deep inside, while the entertainer’s kitchen anchors the space with a large island, breakfast bar and stainless-steel appliances.
At the front, a self-contained studio opens up a whole new set of possibilities. With its own entrance, bedroom with triple built-in robes, bathroom, kitchenette, open-plan living area and split-system comfort, it suits older children, visiting relatives, Airbnb guests or a private tenant. It also connects internally to the main house when you’d rather everything function as one.
Outside, the backyard has been designed to be fully embraced. Accessible pathways wind through established native gardens alive with birds and bees, while alfresco nooks invite you to pause and take in the setting. A Corten-edged deck beckons summer barbecues, plentiful lawn gives children room to play, and there’s ample hardstand for basketball, bikes or simply spreading out.
An electric front gate, double carport and masses of off-street parking easily accommodate the whole family fleet, visitors, caravans, boats and trailers. The land may also offer scope for a small secondary dwelling or granny flat (STCA).
Further features include zoned ducted heating and cooling, keyless Samsung smart-lock entry and a walk-in storage room. The property could also suit future uses such as a bed and breakfast or community care accommodation (STCA).
Best of all, this adaptability comes with everyday convenience. Shops, schools and bus services are all within walking distance, keeping daily life connected without sacrificing space or seclusion.
Five bedrooms, three bathrooms, genuine dual-living capability and an outstanding backyard: it’s ready to adapt to family life now, generate income if desired and keep opening doors well into the future. It can also be offered fully furnished for an even easier move.
