1029-1031 Mount Dandenong Tourist Road

Morning light filters through the trees, coffee in hand on the side balcony, the garden slowly waking around you "Cremorne" has a way of easing you into the day. Set across over an acre (approx. 4759m²) in the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges, this enchanting property blends the charm of its 1940s beginnings with the grand proportions and versatility of a modern family estate. The home unfolds with a natural sense of flow. A welcoming front lounge, anchored by a toasty Coonara wood fire, sets a cosy tone, while polished timber floors guide you through to the expansive open-plan living domain. At its centre, the kitchen is both beautiful and hardworking - stone benches, a 900mm Ilve cooker, walk-in pantry and grand island with breakfast bar all designed to keep pace with busy households and hosting a crowd. Accommodation is abundant and adaptable. On the main level, three bedrooms offer flexibility, including a clever configuration where two can be combined or separated as needed. The main suite is a true retreat, complete with its own sitting space overlooking the gardens and a luxe ensuite with double vanity and shower. Downstairs, an additional oversized bedroom with walk in robe, a bathroom, and a separate office, open the door to multigenerational living or a great teen set-up with private access. Outdoors, the lifestyle expands in every direction creating a lifestyle of fresh air and adventure. A century-old jacaranda stands watch in the backyard, surrounded by rolling lawns, fruit trees and spaces to grow, play or unwind. Multiple alfresco zones - from a sunny deck off the living area to a semi-enclosed side deck and a lower paved terrace wrapped in grapevine - create settings for every mood, occasion and season. Then there's the shedding. A substantial barn-style workshop at the rear, complete with mezzanine, wood fire, amenities and three-phase power, offers serious capability for tradies, hobbyists, man cave dreams or home-based businesses. With birdsong, space for chooks, veggie patches, and the Dandenong Ranges at your doorstep, this is a home that invites you to live a little slower and a lot fuller.
