32 Barbers Road

Beautifully positioned in a private and tranquil setting, "Barbers Lodge" captures the magic of the hills with the warmth, charm, and timeless character only an authentic log cabin can offer. Set on an impressive 2,008sqm allotment with sealed driveways and breathtaking easterly views toward Silvan Reservoir and the Warburton Ranges, this exquisitely renovated residence delivers the perfect blend of rustic luxury and modern comfort. Showcasing polished timber floors, authentic log walls, and whitewashed timber-lined ceilings, the home radiates warmth and character while maintaining a strong connection to its stunning natural surroundings. Spanning two relaxed levels, the thoughtfully designed floorplan offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and multiple inviting indoor and outdoor living spaces. The upper level is dedicated to relaxed living and entertaining, featuring a spacious lounge and dining zone centred around a striking new built-in fireplace and flue system for cosy winter nights. At the heart of the home, the fully renovated skylit kitchen combines functionality with style, complete with a beautiful timber island bench, steam oven, gas cooktop, and built-in hot and cold filtered water. Two bedrooms, including a generous queen-sized room with updated wardrobes, are serviced by an elegant, renovated bathroom with a large walk-in shower. Privately positioned downstairs, the master retreat offers a peaceful escape with deck access, walk-through robe, ensuite, new timber flooring, plush carpet, upgraded insulation, and direct access to the newly completed side deck. Extensively improved throughout, the property has undergone significant upgrades to the roof, log resealing, restumping, plumbing and water system upgrades, new gas ducted heating, split-system air conditioning, a generator change-over system, and a substantial 7.77kW solar system for energy efficiency and peace of mind. The grounds are nothing short of magical. Surrounded by Mountain Ash, lush ferns, established exotic and native plantings, fruit trees, handcrafted timber carvings, rockwork, retaining walls, and beautifully landscaped gardens, the property invites endless exploration and relaxation. Extensive earthworks, sealed driveways, fencing, turf, and ongoing landscaping enhancements have transformed the outdoor spaces into a true hills sanctuary.
