Retreat to the comfort of this unique home with a back to nature feel, space and privacy…. oh, and a view! Spanning across 3 levels, the character abode features lofty timber lined ceilings and big windows, creating a wonderful sense of airiness and light. Cocooned by established gardens, the interiors have been designed to take in the leafy views and to bring the outdoors in. Overlooked by the updated kitchen, the family room accesses the covered alfresco, ideal for casual entertaining. Downstairs, the huge lounge, warmed by the cosy wood heater, opens to the expansive covered deck featuring the breathtaking views of Mount Dandenong, its foothills and beyond. The tiered backyard has a perfect balance of open lawn space, flowering trees and privacy plantings, with extra features including a chook pen and veggie patch. A surprise workshop/storage area under the house adds to the plentiful space, that also includes a double carport, sealed driveway and a delightful garden path to the front door. The master bedroom also enjoys the verdant view through picture windows, and provides a convenient ensuite and triple built in robe. The other three bedrooms have built in robes and share a family bathroom with corner spa and a separate powder room. Double glazed ceiling windows, reverse motion fans, gas ducted heating and split system cooling ensure year-round comfort. With scope to add your own style, there is a homely ambiance here that is rare to find. So private and yet so convenient, you’ll feel a world away and be only minutes to Lilydale central for transport, shops, schools & more.
