18 Dumblane Street

A bespoke family entertainer centred around poolside alfresco living, this architecturally designed 45 bedroom, 2 bathroom home delivers the ideal 'forever home'. Designed with foresight, the home boasts a 6-star energy rating and near off-grid efficiency, delivering exceptionally low running costs and genuine energy independence. An advanced solar and battery system comprising 38 solar panels generating 17kW is designed to produce more energy than the home is likely to use, effectively powering the home during the day at no cost while also charging a 32kW battery system that provides more than three times the power required for free night-time use and EV charging. A high-end, Australian-made stainless steel heat pump further enhances the home's off-grid capability, providing efficient and reliable hot water. Engineered for long-term performance and minimal maintenance, it delivers an exceptionally cost-effective solution, resulting in everyday running costs of $0.00 for the whole house. Behind its refined, period-inspired façade, the home opens to a timeless open-plan domain anchored by a premium family kitchen with stainless steel appliances, farmhouse sink and a substantial island, complemented by a full butler's kitchen to keep entertaining effortless and clutter-free. Seamlessly extending outdoors, the living area connects to an undercover alfresco with outdoor kitchen, café blinds and a heated, covered in-ground pool, creating a year-round setting for relaxed entertaining. Upstairs, the private main suite offers a true retreat with its own living area, ensuite and walk-in robes, while downstairs accommodation includes three bedrooms with built-in robes and loft spaces, plus the flexibility of a fifth bedroom or large study. Securely gated with a double garage and additional off-street parking, the property also includes a lounge, mudroom, powered workshop, garden shed and extensive storage, along with central heating, evaporative cooling and security cameras. Positioned for lifestyle and convenience, enjoy easy access to transport, Oakleigh's dining precinct, Murrumbeena Park, Chadstone, and zoning for Hughesdale Primary, with Sacred Heart Secondary within walking distance.
