14-16 Minter Court

A once in a lifetime opportunity to finish a mostly complete dream home for a fraction of the cost of starting from scratch. This extraordinary five-bedroom, five-bathroom residence set on approximately 25 acres behind the gates of the exclusive Park Orchards estate offers the chance to complete a landmark luxury estate in one of Park Orchards' most tightly held settings. Commanding breathtaking views stretching from the Kinglake Ranges to Mount Macedon, the home's impressive scale is complemented by thoughtful design features focused on comfort, efficiency and longevity. Extensive thermal mass construction helps regulate temperatures year-round, while a prized northern orientation welcomes natural winter sunlight throughout the living spaces. A striking entrance reveals elegant formal lounge and dining rooms featuring French Cheminees Philippe fireplaces, expansive family living areas framed by stunning treetop vistas, and generous accommodation including an oversized main suite with dual walk-in robes, private retreat/study and a luxurious hotel-inspired ensuite complete with circular spa. The unfinished lower-ground level offers exceptional potential, with significant infrastructure already in place including in-slab zoned electric floor heating with individual thermostats, plumbing and electrical rough-ins, and provision for a future cinema, gym, cellar, sauna, wellness retreat or additional entertaining spaces. Adding further value, the sale includes marble already purchased for the balcony and unfinished lower-ground level, along with bluestone for completion of the driveway, providing the incoming owner with premium materials to help bring the vision to life. Designed with fire protection in mind, the property also features ridge-line impact sprinklers and gutter-flooding provisions to assist in safeguarding the roofline. Offering exceptional value, the combination of a rare 25-acre landholding in this blue-chip Park Orchards location and a residence of such scale and quality would cost substantially more to replicate today. Opportunities to acquire a parcel of this size and create a home of this magnitude are exceptionally scarce. For the next owner, this is a genuine once-in-a-lifetime chance to complete a grand vision, finish the home to their own exacting standards and create a generational estate in one of Park Orchards' most prestigious and tightly held locations, moments from elite schools, 100 Acres Reserve, local shopping precincts, public transport and EastLink.
