Privately positioned just moments from the local general store, primary school and train station, and within minutes of the heart of Diamond Creek, this impressive property delivers a rare lifestyle opportunity on just over 5 acres (approx). It is an ideal choice for those seeking space, serenity and seclusion without sacrificing everyday convenience.
Set behind remote gates and accessed via a long, winding driveway, the home enjoys an elevated, north-facing position with sweeping rural outlooks stretching across to the Kinglake Ranges. From the moment you arrive, the sense of privacy and calm is immediately apparent.
Inside, the home offers generous and flexible living spaces suited to both relaxed day-to-day living and entertaining. A spacious lounge anchored by a woodfire heater creates a warm and inviting retreat, while an expansive open-plan living and meals area integrates seamlessly with the kitchen. A large rumpus room adds further versatility, providing space for family gatherings, recreation or quiet retreat depending on your needs.
Outdoor living is a standout feature of the property. All main living areas connect directly to a huge covered entertaining pergola that spans the full length of the home. Complete with a built-in BBQ and outdoor kitchen, this space is ideal for long lunches, summer evenings and year-round entertaining, supported by ample outdoor lighting for use across all seasons.
Beyond the main entertaining zone, the outdoor areas have been thoughtfully arranged for relaxed, practical use. A simple outdoor bonfire area provides a laid-back space to enjoy cooler evenings, whether sharing snacks, having a drink, or toasting marshmallows. Formed using a circle of volcanic rocks, the bonfire area offers an informal setting to unwind with family or friends.
The property also features established fruit trees and purpose-built garden areas designed for growing vegetables, fruit and flowers. These productive garden zones are well laid out and practical, offering the opportunity to grow your own produce or enjoy tending to the gardens as part of everyday living. Landscaped garden areas with rock retaining walls add structure and definition to the grounds, while still maintaining a natural, rural feel.
Adding further appeal is a large, fully fenced basketball half-court with built-in hoop and purpose-built lighting, creating a great space for kids, teenagers and family fun. The cleared perimeter around the property allows for walking tracks and easy maintenance access, complemented by a landscaped circular driveway.
Accommodation is well considered, with the main bedroom privately positioned and featuring a large walk-in robe and ensuite. Additional bedrooms are generous in size, all with built-in robes and serviced by the central family bathroom. Separate from the main living and accommodation zones, but still under the roofline, is a large home office or guest bedroom along with a versatile teen retreat, studio or additional bedroom plus bathroom depending on individual requirements.
A substantial freestanding garage and workshop with over-height doors caters perfectly for car enthusiasts, tradespeople or those with caravans, boats, trailers or horse floats. This space also includes lock-up storage and a climate-controlled home office, ideal for anyone working from home or running an online business.
Additional features include multiple sheds, NBN connection, town water supplemented by tanks, a 24kW solar array, new carpet to the bedrooms plus recently laid floating timber floors. A constant presence of visiting wildlife and birdlife further enhances the lifestyle appeal.
Offering space, privacy and a wide range of indoor and outdoor features, this property delivers a relaxed rural lifestyle with the convenience of nearby amenities — a rare combination in such a tightly held location.
