24 Florence Avenue, Upwey, Vic 3158

Framed by breathtaking, four-season gardens and wrapped in alfresco decking, this inspiring one-owner weatherboard home spans almost 40sqm on nearly an acre of verdant paradise offering the ultimate family escape. From the moment you enter, you’re welcomed by the gleam of Tasmanian Oak floors, lashings of glass and an abundance of light that blur the lines between indoors and out, drawing you into a serene world where natural beauty is the star.

With architectural features that ooze timeless character, the three living zones are designed to capture the stunning surroundings at every turn. The formal lounge and dining area, complete with an open fireplace, invites you to relax and recline, while the adjacent kitchen, crafted from recycled Oregon cabinetry and porcelain benches, features everything a modern chef needs, including an integrated Bosch dishwasher, stainless steel appliances, and a central island.  A spectacular showcase window in the meals area frames the stunning garden views, creating live art to accompany your dining experience, and there’s built-in wine storage to display your favourite drops.

The sunken family room, with a cosy Coonara wood fire beneath a canopy of timber-lined cathedral ceilings, adds a touch of rustic charm, making it the perfect spot to gather with loved ones. For those who love to entertain, the rear covered alfresco zone, complete with an 8-person spa, offers the ultimate outdoor retreat, overlooking Ferny Creek as it meanders through the park-like gardens—pure magic!

Upstairs, three robed bedrooms provide tranquil escapes with sweeping views of the surrounding greenery, while an upstairs retreat provides a quiet space for work or play. The master suite on the ground floor is a private haven, featuring a bay window, plantation shutters, and a spa ensuite with a luxurious gold monsoon shower, creating the perfect haven for the heads of the house.

The gardens are a magical wonderland, with scented azaleas, rhododendrons, Japanese maples, silver birch trees, Belladonna lilies, hellebores and towering tree ferns, offering a kaleidoscope of colour in spring and basking in the golden glow of winter sun. Of note, a stunning oak tree that creates a shady umbrella in summer and a breathtaking evergreen Magnolia grandiflora that erupts into fragrant white blooms that can span up to 30cm – a sight to behold each year.  The magnificent setting feels like a private oasis, where children can roam freely, explore nature, and enjoy the natural beauty of Ferny Creek flowing through the property— creating an enchanting setting that feels worlds away from the hustle of daily life.

Tucked away in a peaceful Upwey pocket with cool breezes from the National Park, this captivating home offers a rare opportunity to raise a family in one of the Dandenong Ranges’ most magical locations just a few minutes' drive from Village life. Step into your dream lifestyle today.
