Description

Idyllically positioned in a most peaceful and private enclave adjacent to majestic state forest and the Kyeema Track, “Eagle’s Nest” - a custom built brick veneer property on ¾ acre sits in perfect harmony with its tranquil environment providing a secluded setting to raise a family and embrace the very best of the Dandenong Ranges. Oriented for stunning north westerly vistas, the executively built home on an open and sunny allotment tiptoes quietly amongst nature where birdsong hangs in the air and the occasional wandering echidna meanders across the rolling lawns. Beyond the sweeping driveway, inside calms with a flowing single level, dual-living floorplan that spills to an all-season alfresco – the best seat in the house to take in the magical glow of sunset o’clock. Families will be drawn to the space, the setting, the quietude and the potential for living off-grid yet you are just a 3-minute drive to the Mount Dandenong Village and Fiveways for conveniences, community and connection.

Step inside to living areas that are grounded by the earthiness of bamboo floors under a canopy of soaring 3m high ceilings where an open plan zone is warmed by the ambience of a combustion wood fire.
A striking stone bench kitchen is highlighted by a central island for casual eats, stainless-steel appliances and a lavish walk-in pantry whilst a quiet lounge/tv room offers a reprieve from busy family life.
A privately placed master bedroom offers a sanctuary for the heads of the house accented by a walk-in robe and rain shower ensuite with a dreamy deep soak bath enhanced by soul-soothing views. Two minor bedrooms are quietly housed in a separate wing serviced by a family bathroom and a fourth bedroom that could also be utilised as a home office.
Alfresco allure is delivered in spades with an all-season entertaining zone spilling to a polished concrete terrace ripe for hosting friends and family. A built-in barbeque will have the sausages sizzling all-year round and you can watch the kids as they cartwheel across the lush, flat lawn below.
Beautifully landscaped gardens made private by a camellia hedge allow you to pick your own blooms displaying an array of liliums and lily of the valley… just waiting for the summer sun.
Dreams of self-sufficiency can also be realised with the covered veggie patch ready for your green thumb complemented by avocados, pears, blueberries, dwarf apples and an orchard of mandarin, lime, lemonade and apple trees. And don’t forget the luxury chook house ready and waiting for your isa browns, the water tanks, the commercial generator and the solar panels! All the ingredients you need for your off-grid life.
Moments from the top of Mount Dandenong for panoramic vistas of Melbourne and fireworks on New Year’s Eve and with picturesque walking tracks at your front door - “Eagle’s Nest” is just perfect for raising a family, entertaining and taking time to appreciate life among nature.
