Expressions of Interest: Closing Wednesday 20th May at 5pm (Unless Sold Prior) Meticulously crafted as his own residence almost five decades ago, local mudbrick artisan Graham Rose has brought together a thoughtful blend of handmade mudbricks, Florentine bluestone, slate, and rich, earthy timbers reclaimed from a variety of sources to create this unique home, radiating immediate warmth, character, and comfort without compromising on convenience. First-floor spaces, enhanced by timber floors under soaring ceilings with exposed timber beams and feature lighting, amplify the sense of space across a free-flowing living and dining domain. Anchored by an open fireplace, the focal point is a stone-detailed kitchen appointed with a full suite of premium Bosch appliances, wrapped in bespoke cabinetry and including an appliance cupboard and a breakfast bench perfect for banter and baking. Glass doors ensure a seamless extension to a relaxing balcony. Sitting among the treetops and stretching the width of the house, it's an inviting space to unwind and escape the pace of everyday life. Sharing the level are three bedrooms, all boasting built-in robes and served by a sleek contemporary bathroom that pampers with the luxury of quality tiles, a back-to-wall bath, and Phoenix tapware, fixtures, and fittings. Enjoying the ease of internal and external access, the ground floor introduces a generously proportioned living/rumpus room, bathroom, and separate bedroom, creating an ideal retreat for teenagers or multi-generational living for those seeking privacy and independence. Alternatively, it delivers an enticing option for those looking to work from home. Rendered for easy care and recently repainted, the home is further enhanced by Velux skylights (with remote blinds), a stone-finished laundry, day-night blinds, hydronic heating, multiple split-system units, leadlight detail, a garden shed, rainwater tank, under-house storage, and a double carport supplemented by additional off-street parking. A 1979 m² allotment with deep frontage to Ryans Road introduces the possibility for subdivision (STCA). An easy walk to Eltham's station, shopping, dining, cafés, and entertainment offerings, and central to secondary, primary, and pre-schools including CLC, yet offering peace, privacy, year-round greenery, and a passing parade of native birds and wildlife, this property presents a rare opportunity to secure a home of enduring character and appeal that enjoys a lifestyle that's country quiet yet city close.
