97 Menzies Road, Kangaroo Ground, Vic 3097

Sitting peacefully among 20+ acres of undulating land, this architecturally designed Georgian style farm house is a true one-of-a-kind property that offers a lifestyle of peace and tranquility known to only a lucky few.

A scenic private driveway provides just the right amount of anticipation before opening up to reveal a spectacular story book home encompassed by acres of pristine land, manicured hedges and landscaped gardens.

Built on solid rock and a concrete slab foundation, entry to the home is via exquisite gardens and outdoor seating areas before you step onto a grand alfresco verandah that wraps itself around the majority of the home.

Inside you’ll discover high ceilings, wide hallways, Queensland spotted gum hardwood flooring and two chimneys built from 150 year old bricks sourced from the old Daniel Robertson brick kilns.

A huge light-filled semi-formal living and dining area incorporates a feature fire place as well as plenty of room to relax and entertain, connecting seamlessly to a beautifully finished kitchen.

Incorporating stone benches, European appliances, a walk-in pantry, abundance of custom storage and stylish bi-fold servery windows, the kitchen is a real highlight.

Bedroom accommodation is tucked away from the main living zones, all enjoy direct outdoor access and freshly laid carpets, the master has a modern en-suite with free-standing bath, while the matching main bathroom has a walk-in shower, twin vanity and corner spa bath.

A study/home office further compliments this intricate and detailed layout, as does a grand formal lounge with yet another warming fire place and multiple French door access points to the wonderful outdoor spaces.

Professionally landscaped gardens, two separate lawn areas, rose gardens and lots of English box hedges, seating areas and uninterrupted views to the Dandenongs.

Garden water is pumped up to the house gardens from the dam, a water treatment plant takes care of the grey water and sewage, and 3 x 25,000 litre tanks are fed from the roof of the dwelling.

Although there are simply too many extras to mention, an inbuilt heat exchange system, reverse-cycle heating/cooling system, ceiling fans, wall and ceiling insulation, James Hardy cement weatherboards, underground power, a shed/workshop and a versatile attic style 6th bedroom, studio or kids’ retreat are just some.

Secluded for serenity yet within just minutes to central Warrandyte shops, cafes and restaurants, the Diamond Creek shopping precinct, the Kangaroo Ground Post Office, with great connection to top public and private schooling, as well as enjoying easy access to connecting major roads.
