What's around 63 Skyline Rd

10-acre artistic sanctuary with an architect-designed home, cottage & studio

Rare to find and rich in opportunity, this mudbrick home designed by architect Ross Henry sits alongside a 35 square cottage and a 55 square studio within a 10-acre bushland sanctuary. Live simply or go off-grid, work from home, create, craft and cultivate. A long driveway and landscaped turn circle lead to the residence, where it reveals itself through the trees. Inside, trunks rise like pillars and a mix of leadlight and picture windows pull the bush in from every angle. Raw materials, raked ceilings and a versatile split-level design give the home character, drawing in creatives, including its photographer owner. Exploring the home, you’ll find the kitchen, boasting a 1100mm Belling cooker, pressed metal splashbacks and timber benchtops. Twin living and dining areas open to sunbathed terraces, where bush and mountain vistas are enhanced at golden hour. A pizza oven, cubby house, sandpit and swing feature out here, alongside a fully fenced pool. Three bedrooms are spread across the home. The main has a dressing room with vanity, extensive storage and French doors to the pool, while two have mezzanine-style bunk beds, one with a storage tower. A study with a curved wall and substantial floor-to-ceiling library shelving offers flexibility as a fourth bedroom. A family bathroom services the home, with pendant lighting and vintage door hardware adding charm, wood and gas heaters ensuring warmth, and a double carport for sheltering vehicles. The separate cottage features power, wash facilities, a wood heater and a rustic kitchen. The studio, complete with 3-phase power, storage, a wash basin and its own alfresco, is superbly appointed for use as a creative space, workshop or home business setup. Gardens are established and productive, with tomatoes, zucchini and Warragul greens. With a chicken coop and run, a hot house, compost bins, solar panels and storage for wood and equipment, the land supports self-sufficiency, with scope to take it further off-grid. Secluded, serene and surrounded by wildlife, yet within reach of neighbouring suburbs for shops, schools, transport and essential services, this is a place where you can slow down, spread out and live your way. Please note: this property is situated within an Environmental Living Zone which prohibits domestic pets including cats and dogs.

Fantastic agent and wonderful with buyers!

Dori was fantastic to work with throughout the sale of my property. She did an excellent job at all of the open homes and was wonderful with prospective buyers throughout the campaign. Dori is friendly, professional and very easy to communicate with, and I really appreciated her help in achieving such a strong result for the property. I would happily recommend Dori Jennings to anyone looking for an excellent real estate agent. She is wonderful at what she does and an absolute pleasure to work with. Dori made the process of selling my property as stress-free as it’s possible to be, and I would not hesitate to work with Dori again in the future.

Excellent communicator and an outstanding agent

Dominic was fantastic to work with from start to finish! He is calm, decisive, responsive and has excellent market knowledge. He achieved a very strong sale price for my property in what was a challenging market, and I always felt that he was focused on getting the best possible outcome. His communication was excellent throughout the entire campaign - he consistently kept me updated, was easy to reach, and always took the time to explain what was happening. He is friendly, professional, determined and genuinely committed to his vendors. Dominic put a lot of effort into the sale of my property and I can highly recommend him, and I will be buying my next property from Dominic as well. It is easy to see why he has achieved the Top Agent award several times - I can honestly say that he is the best real estate agent I have ever dealt with and I will return to Dominic Cruz for all my future property transactions. He is simply excellent at what he does and it has been such a pleasure having Dominic sell my property.
