45 Sweeneys Lane

For astute buyers in pursuit of peace, beauty, and possibility, this warm and welcoming Alistair Knox mudbrick home on a generous 2.65 acres (approx.), in arguably Eltham's most tightly held pocket, delivers something truly rare. Whether you are seeking to move straight in and be embraced by its inviting warmth while enjoying everything it has to offer, or you are a visionary wanting to create something truly unique, this is an unmatched opportunity (STCA). Introduced by a large lobby, the interior reveals an expansive lounge and dining domain anchored by an open fireplace and enhanced by exposed beams set against a timber-lined ceiling. A separate living room and a living/meals area extend from a well-appointed kitchen featuring stainless steel benchtops, solid timber cabinetry, and a Garland commercial-grade cooker. Complementing the living spaces is a main bedroom with ensuite, along with two further bedrooms that share a stone-detailed, fully tiled spa bathroom. Adding to the appeal is a separate cottage. Comprising two sizeable rooms serviced by a full bathroom and kitchen, it is ideal as a teen retreat, studio, or work-from-home space. With minimal effort, it could be reimagined as self-contained accommodation for multi-generational living (STCA). Expansive paved outdoor areas stretch the length of the home, including a covered living and dining zone complete with fans, heaters, and tracked blinds for year-round enjoyment. These spaces create a seamless connection between the home and the established gardens within a wrap-around yard, where a creek forms one picturesque boundary. Extensive timber panelling, feature leadlight, and parquetry flooring enhance the home's charm and character, while multiple split-system units, hydronic heating, ceiling fans, a remote double garage with internal access, and a large shed deliver an impressive list of inclusions. Offering endless scope to add your own touch to the existing spaces this property presents an exceptional opportunity to create a remarkable home and lifestyle retreatwrapped in peaceful privacy, yet just minutes from Eltham's schools, shopping, cafés, dining, entertainment options, and the station. ***PHOTO ID REQUIRED AT OPEN FOR INSPECTIONS***
