Expressions of Interest Closing Tuesday 6th May at 2pm (Unless Sold Prior)

Charming in character and modern by intent, this delightful Red Hill cottage delivers a soulful escape where every detail feels intuitively composed and quietly in tune with its natural environs. Mature messmate gums front the entrance, as remote gates open to a landscape of feature-lit trees, revealing a home that has been completely transformed throughout its quarter-acre (approx) setting. 

Immediately calming, the single level interiors unfold with a quiet warmth across engineered Spotted Gum floors and soft grey linen sheers, while timber wall panelling draws on the quintessential cottage aesthetic. The fireside living area flows with ease to the kitchen, where a farmhouse sink is paired with premium appliances, including a Vintec wine fridge. A glimpse of Westernport shimmers between the hinterland treetops, while clear sightlines across the garden allow children to play freely beneath open skies. 

Two decks provide distinct spaces to pause or enjoy a long lunch, one flowing from the leafy front verandah, the other northeast-facing, framed by white balustrade and sheltered beneath a retractable electric awning. Accompanied by the vivid presence of passing crimson rosellas and king parrots, the rear deck looks out across a sculpted arrangement of granite boulders forming a dedicated fire pit zone. From here, the garden flows into raised veggie beds and fruiting lemon, lime, and feijoa trees, all fringed by hedging and neighbouring trees that lend a wonderful sense of privacy. 

Down the hall, three restful bedrooms bask in shifting tranquil outlooks that evolve throughout the day. All feature built-in robes sit alongside a generous bathroom with a freestanding tub, double vanity with heritage-style sconces and matte black fixtures. Practical touches include ducted heating and cooling, under-deck storage, a garden shed, water tanks, while scope for a future pool (STCA) offers the opportunity to introduce another layer of leisure. 

A separate studio shares in the home’s calm materiality and tone, complete with built-in storage and a bathroom, well placed for use as a creative workspace, home office or guest hideaway.  

In the heart of wine country, a local trail offers an easy stroll to Polperro Winery, with Red Hill Village, the Red Hill Rail Trail, and esteemed school bus services all close at hand. Just over an hour from Melbourne’s CBD, suited to both permanent and part-time living, this is a setting where the pace is slower, but the lifestyle is full.
