25 Dewar Drive

Resting quietly within a picturesque bushland setting on 4.3 easy-care acres (approx.) and enjoying a relaxing outlook that stretches to the city skyline and its impressive light show, this single-level retreat delivers relaxed contemporary country living. Just a few minutes from the centre of Hurstbridge, with its education, shopping, café and dining options, and the station for a guaranteed seat on the city-bound train, it seamlessly delivers calm, privacy and connection, enhanced by the added appeal of a constant parade of visiting birds and wildlife. Striking polished concrete floors bring warmth and aesthetic appeal to an interior introduced by a sweeping veranda stretching the length of the house, providing shade in summer and protection from the elements in the wetter months. Wrapping around a kitchen featuring commercial-grade fittings and finishes, a 900mm cooker, soft-close cabinetry, a glide-out pantry and a farmhouse sink, the expansive living-meals area is ready to take on any family event. A series of doors opens to a covered, paved alfresco precinct where you can entertain against an outlook mixing rural spaces with city lights. Thoughtfully zoned away from the living area are the four bedrooms. Featuring built-in robes an entire wall in the case of the main they share a deluxe bathroom with a bespoke formed-concrete vanity and an oversized shower. A separate, climate-controlled studio just steps from the house delivers options for a teen retreat/games room or a work-from-home space where you're not actually working in the home. Supplementing the remote double garage, featuring an impressive amount of storage, is a carport (also under the roofline), a spacious machinery shed and a large chicken coop. Together, they lead an impressive list of extras, including matte black fittings and fixtures throughout, a stone-finished laundry with fitted storage, split-system units, a Coonara woodfired heater, ceiling fans, and all the benefits of a vast solar array.
