Elevated within a glorious garden setting on 2.5 acres (approx.), this distinguished colonial-style home presents an enduring example of classic Australian design. Encircled by a wraparound veranda and approached via a leadlight front door, the residence unfolds to interiors rich in character, where Baltic timber VJ panelling, Tasmanian Oak flooring, and soaring ceilings with roses and decorative cornices create a sense of timeless grandeur.
From the entry, a gracious corbelled archway introduces the formal lounge and dining domains, with elegant proportions and French doors to the updated kitchen, appointed with 40mm stone surfaces, a central island, white Shaker-style cabinetry and drawers, a coffee station, and Electrolux appliances including a double oven and dishwasher. The adjoining family zone forms an impressive gathering space, featuring a raked cathedral ceiling and leadlight orb feature windows.
Accommodation comprises four robed bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a main bedroom suite with walk-in robe and classic ensuite. The central bathroom is finished with 600mm marble-effect tiling and includes a shower, white plantation shutters, and a twin stone vanity. Meanwhile, a large study provides excellent WFH amenity.
The grounds extend across beautifully established surrounds, incorporating a paved entertaining area and sweeping lawns defined by bluestone retaining walls and edging. A fountain enhances the landscape, while a dam with jetty and covered viewing area add a tranquil focal point. Practical inclusions continue with a storage shed, chook pen, pony paddock, cubby house, town and tank water. The property backs onto The Parkway reserve, where natural bushland attracts visiting kangaroos and abundant birdlife.
Additional features include a double garage, ample parking bays for visitors, ducted vacuum, wood-fuelled heaters, split system heating and cooling, solar panels, and an updated laundry.
The blissfully private Emu Bottom setting enjoys convenient access to shops and cafés, Sunbury township and train station, schools, childcare centres, and a wide range of recreational facilities, delivering a lifestyle of rare space and privacy.
