At the end of a quiet country lane, discover a rare beauty of irreplaceable character and charm, set on almost half an acre and surrounded by picturesque hills. A perfect chance to escape to the Yarra Valley; whether you decide to reside in the existing two bedroom cottage or set your sights on a new home build (STCA), you're sure to discover the magic of this place at once. A new home build could take advantage of the desirable position and showcase the incredible sweeping views of Yarra Glen to Mt Dandenong and across to Christmas Hills, whilst the original two-bedroom cottage offers an opportunity to update or extend.
Behind its humble weatherboard façade, the old railway workers meeting house displays quaint interiors that hark back to yesteryear; a design distinctive of an early Victorian era where a simple and restrained style blended formal and casual spaces featuring characteristic high ceilings, original timber wall panelling and doors, open fireplace and Colonial sash windows. The farmhouse kitchen also exhibits the period style in its design and offers a glimpse of the spectacular views.
Sprawling grounds are gently sloping, spotted with outbuildings, shade trees, cottage plants and vegetable gardens. There are plenty of options for open entertaining spaces, plus room for pets/hobby animals with some existing fencing.
The redevelopment of the Yarra Glen railway will add a touch of old world romance to the scene, as you watch the steam train chug along its tracks and hot air balloons traverse the valley skies. For a true slice of country life, with the nearby convenience of Yarra Glen township a mere stroll away, this historic home amidst the hills could be the beginning of a very promising future.
