At the end of a long, private driveway, completely shielded from the world below, this character weatherboard home opens to cinematic views of the Dandenong Ranges. It’s a setting that immediately commands attention - 3279sqm (approx.) of elevated land where the horizon stretches wide, and the potential is every bit as vast.
The home itself is steeped in history, its weatherboard exterior quietly hinting at the stories lived within, though now calling for a new chapter. Step inside and you’ll find hardwood floors (excluding the kitchen and wet areas), intricate ivy-leaf cornices overhead, sash windows and picture rails. The lounge and dining space feels both grounded and romantic, with a modern inbuilt wood fire for chilly nights and French doors leading you straight out to the garden.
There’s an original kitchen with sunny dining nook, a separate sitting room that works equally well as a home office, and two robed bedrooms of generous proportions. The bathroom, with its timber vanity, bath, and separate shower, nods to a simpler era while offering scope for your personal touch. And then there’s the pool – waiting patiently for someone with vision to restore its former glory and reinstate long summer afternoons in the sunshine.
This is a property that welcomes imagination. Restore, renovate and breathe new life into the existing character or start afresh with a dream design that maximises the land’s size and spectacular aspect (STCA). Either way, the elevated block offers a stage few can match.
The lifestyle on offer is as enticing as the land itself. Walk to Croydon Central’s cafés, eateries, and the train station. Schools, from Croydon Primary to Luther College and Yarra Valley Grammar, are all within easy reach. Eastland, Chirnside Park, and McAdam Square cover your retail cravings, while nearby parks, reserves, and Aquahub add a healthy dose of nature and recreation. The freeway and Eastlink keep city connections smooth, and the Yarra Valley lies just beyond, offering weekend adventures through vineyards and rolling countryside.
