What's around 34 Bradleys Lane

Riverside Beauty with Creative Roots

Steeped in rich history, this significant North Warrandyte property carries the artistic legacy of its past owners. Occupying approximately 3,194 sq m, just metres from the Yarra River, this dual-dwelling property merges creativity, tranquillity and flexibility. The property’s story: In 1953, Candy and Ron Crane purchased the property and constructed the existing brick cottage. In 1958, with their well-known neighbours Betty and Gus McLaren, they founded a co-operative called The Potters Cottage; an artist’s retreat where creatives came together. In 1965, the Van Puffelins, talented puppeteers known for creating puppets for the iconic Mr Squiggle show, took residence. They too were potters and collaborated with Gus McLaren on various pieces. In 1968, the property was sold to the Ritchie family. Marge Ritchie, a jewellery maker, built an art gallery, which now stands as the main residence. Subtle reminders of the property’s past remain, including remnants from pottery kilns in the courtyard and high-intricate windows in the bedrooms. These artistic chapters weave a unique story, presenting an exciting opportunity for incoming proprietors to continue its narrative. The property’s charming Bradleys Lane location is only a leisurely walk to Norman Reserve and its swimming hole, bus services and Yarra Street with its speciality stores and eateries. It is also placed for easy access to quality public and private schools, community and recreational facilities, Eltham, EastLink, plus local and major shopping centres, including Goldfields, The Pines and Eastland. * History-rich property on approximately 3,194 sq m, just metres from the Yarra River * Stunning bush-style environment brimming with native bird and wildlife * 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom family residence, featuring a fully equipped kitchen, spacious lounge room, two dining areas, a study nook, ducted heating and a wood heater * 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom self-contained cottage – suitable for teen or in-law accommodation, a home office, studio or Airbnb leasing * Both dwellings boast striking architecture with cathedral ceilings and large windows that showcase the serene surroundings * Generous tiered decking, a firepit and a brick-paved courtyard * Long, private driveway with 4 designated parking bays * Substantial storage available within and under the residence Terms: 10% deposit, balance 30/60 days

5 stars from me

Dominic was the right agent for me. He is a good communicator. He was insightful in his advice regarding how to best present the property. He was calm and unflappable in his negotiations with buyers. I was kept in the loop at all times and he quietly achieved the price we wanted. He is also a kind and considered person, qualities that are not often found in business today. I saw these qualities conferring an advantage to both the seller and the buyer by way of increased trust and decreased stress.

Dori was the assistant agent for Dominic Kruz. She is a wonderful person - kind, responsive, insightful and helpful. In particular, prior to the house going on the market, Dori seemed to have lots of personal contacts for fixing things. Even though these trade people were busy or fully booked for several weeks, they dropped what they were doing and fitted us in so we could get the house on the market. They could easily have made us wait but I realised they did this because of their connection and respect for Dori. So 5 stars from me.
