Full of character and thoughtful design, this extended five bedroom Mount Evelyn home offers rare flexibility with a dual living arrangement. In a beautiful elevated position overlooking the Olinda Creek, home to platypus and frogs and framed by tall trees attracting abundant birdlife, living here is as much about the house as it is about the landscape.
Beyond its wide and welcoming front deck, the interiors flow with ease and reveal a highly versatile layout that can work as one large family home or two separate living zones. A spacious, central living room is set atop hardwood floors and warmed by a wood heater, while a second lounge occupies the original part of the home, wrapped in sash windows and featuring an ornate fireplace and twin doors to the garden. Between the two living areas, the kitchen provides generous bench space, an upright stove, dishwasher and a lovely outlook.
At the end of the skylit hallway, a self-contained living domain adds exceptional multi-generational flexibility, with its own external ramp entrance, light-filled living room with treetop views, neat kitchen, sliding door to the outdoor deck, bathroom and up to two bedrooms. The second bedroom can also be accessed via the main hallway, providing further flexibility for families, guests or independent living.
Three additional well-sized bedrooms have been smartly positioned toward the rear, enhancing peace and privacy. With walk-in and triple built-in robes, a twin-basin ensuite, a charming third bathroom with a cast iron bath and a huge laundry, everyday needs are taken care of with comforting ease.
Double glazing, soundproofing, ceiling fans and an 18-panel solar system add long-term sustainable appeal. There is plenty of parking for everyone, including room for a caravan or boat, plus floodlights and good fencing all around.
Set in a family-friendly Mount Evelyn location, Birmingham Primary School, Mount Evelyn Christian School and Edinburgh College are all close by, while bus links to Lilydale, Ringwood and beyond are just steps away. Mount Evelyn shops, York on Lilydale, wetlands, trails and reserves, nurseries, cafes and sporting grounds are all in the neighbourhood, offering a wonderful lifestyle for those lucky enough to call this special place home.
