23 Saint James Avenue, Montrose, Vic 3765

Nestled away from the everyday rush at the end of a long, private driveway, this sprawling half-acre (2320m2) estate is a sanctuary of space, style, and serenity. The hush of nature is broken only by birdsong - perhaps even a visiting lyrebird - as this fully renovated retreat wraps you in peace yet just moments away from Montrose Village and everyday essentials. 

Every inch of the home has been meticulously updated, with a chic Dulux palette, elegant sheers, 9 ft 6 in ceilings and floor-skimming windows amplifying light and airiness. The palatial single-level layout is designed for lavish family living, with a trio of living spaces ensuring there’s a place for every mood - be it fireside relaxation in the lounge, family gatherings in the open-plan domain with electric stone fireplace, or entertainment and play in the rumpus. At the heart of it all is the show stopping Kinsman kitchen, where a grand stone-topped island bench gleams under pendant lights, high-end Bosch appliances handle every culinary whim, and an integrated dishwasher for seamless entertaining. 

Thoughtful zoning enhances both function and flow, with the master retreat positioned for privacy, featuring a luxe rain shower ensuite, dual vanities, and built-in robes. A separate wing houses three more bedrooms, each with floor-to-ceiling robes, serviced by a designer family bathroom with a deep soak tub and twin basins. Additionally, a dedicated home office ensures working from home is effortless. 

Outside, the rear verandah stretches out, designed for entertaining to host long-table feasts or quiet morning coffees, overlooking a vast lawn perfect for backyard cricket, cubby houses, or even a pool could take centre stage (STCA). A separate pergola caters to the BBQ, while a second alfresco space by the entrance offers yet another spot to unwind. And for those who need serious storage, the oversized four-car garage - with five roller doors - provides ample space for a workshop, gym, or man cave, plus extra parking for boats, caravans, or trailers.  Ample flat parking in the entrance forecourt is simply a bonus. 

Premium features include ducted heating, ceiling fans, wall A/C, solar power with inverter, security gates, and full fencing complete this picture of comfort, practicality, and retreat-like living. Offering the best of both worlds - seclusion and convenience - you’re within walking distance to Montrose Primary, preschools, transport, and local reserves. This is where countryside tranquillity meets contemporary luxury, and where every day feels like an escape. Your dream retreat awaits!
