Introduced by a stately gated entrance and a long, tree-lined driveway, this magnificent country estate unfolds as a private sanctuary of rare scale, classical refinement and enduring craftsmanship. Elevated and set on approximately 10 acres (circa 40,487 sqm) of secure privacy, the residence is surrounded by beautifully established gardens, open paddocks and rolling greenery, delivering a lifestyle of tranquillity, prestige and space that is increasingly rare within Park Orchards.
Built to endure, the solid brick residence immediately impresses with its commanding presence, expansive proportions and meticulously maintained interiors, a home clearly constructed with permanence and pride. From the moment of arrival, grandeur is announced by a sweeping timber staircase and dramatic cascading crystal chandelier, creating a breathtaking focal point and setting the tone for the elegant interiors that follow.
Multiple formal and informal living zones are thoughtfully arranged across three expansive levels, offering outstanding flexibility for both refined entertaining and everyday family living. Formal reception rooms feature plush carpets, ornate cornices and statement chandeliers, while expansive casual living areas enjoy seamless flow to outdoor terraces and garden outlooks. A dedicated games and entertaining room with built-in wet bar provide an exceptional setting for hosting on a grand scale.
At the heart of the home, the generously proportioned main kitchen is beautifully appointed with extensive timber cabinetry, quality appliances and abundant bench space, overlooking the gardens and adjoining meals area. Designed for both functionality and longevity, it caters effortlessly to large families and long-term entertaining. The residence also features a second kitchen, enhancing its appeal for multigenerational living or potential self-contained accommodation.
Accommodation is equally impressive in both scale and privacy, comprising five oversized bedrooms and five bathrooms. Each bedroom enjoys generous proportions, garden outlooks and ample storage, while the master suite is a true retreat, complete with its own private balcony, serene estate views and a spacious ensuite bathroom. Additional home office spaces provide ideal flexibility for remote work or study.
A standout feature of the home is its seamless connection to the outdoors. Balconies on every level capture elevated view across the surrounding landscape, complemented by expansive verandas and terraces. A beautiful sunroom overlooking the pool creates a light-filled indoor–outdoor living space ideal for year-round enjoyment, entertaining or relaxed family living.
The grounds are a defining highlight, featuring manicured flower gardens, productive vegetable gardens, an abundant fruit orchard and expansive paddocks ideal for horses or hobby farming. The property has accommodated animals including alpacas, peacocks and cattle, reflecting its versatility as a true lifestyle estate. Bore water ensures the gardens remain lush throughout the warmer months, while additional features including video security, remote-controlled gates and a triple garage provide comfort, security and peace of mind.
Occupying a prominent corner position at the intersection of Stintons Road and Knees Road, the estate combines rural seclusion with exceptional everyday convenience. Shopping and lifestyle amenities are all within easy reach, including The Pines Shopping Centre, Tunstall Square Shopping Centre, Eastland Shopping Centre, Costco Wholesale Ringwood and Westfield Doncaster and key transport connections. The property is zoned for Park Orchards Primary School and Norwood
Secondary College, and enjoys close proximity to Melbourne’s leading private schools including Donvale Christian College, Whitefriars College, Luther College, Yarra Valley Grammar and Carey Baptist Grammar School, reinforcing its appeal as a premier family estate. The combination of substantial landholding, elevated position, corner allotment and future potential (STCA) makes this a truly rare and irreplaceable offering.
A residence of substance, character and remarkable versatility, this is fat more than a home, it is a legacy estate offering exceptional lifestyle appeal today, with exciting scope for the future. Properties of this calibre, scale and privacy are rarely available, presenting a truly extraordinary opportunity to secure one of Park Orchards’ finest country estates to be cherished for generations.
