Details
Proudly positioned on the crest of a hill on the outskirts of Neerim South, this largely original yet thoughtfully modernised turn-of-the-century homestead both inspires and delights.
Set on approx 24 acres of rolling farmland including landscaped gardens with magnificent mature trees , the property enjoys uninterrupted views of the surrounding hills-an outlook that truly must be seen to be appreciated.
A curved driveway winds its way to the home, where the impressive elevated barn-style extension connects seamlessly to the original residence. Entry via the covered verandah leads into a generously proportioned dining room, enhanced by 2.8m ceilings, elegant cornicing, and an ideal setting for memorable dinner parties.
The open-plan extension features soaring timber-detailed ceilings and sweeping vistas across the countryside. At its heart lies a striking kitchen with 900mm Falcon oven and cooktop, trough-style sink, excellent appliance storage, and a north-facing picture window that floods the space with natural light. A detailed feature wall flows into the lounge, where a stone fireplace and chimney house a Jøtul wood heater, complemented by decorative pendant lighting for a warm and inviting ambience. French doors open to the eastern deck, with a spiral staircase offering direct connection to the gardens below.
Internal glass French doors lead to a wide hallway with original timber floorboards and access to a rear living room or study. This character-filled space contains an original brick fireplace fitted with a freestanding wood burner, along with the original vaulted timber-lined ceiling, timber doors, and skirting boards. Here you’ll also find a cleverly concealed 'Intra Muros' bathroom, revealed through a deep threshold framed by decorative French doors and built-in cabinetry. Beautifully appointed, it features full tiling, a freestanding bath, oversized shower, toilet, and twin trough-style basins.
A rear door from the living area opens to another charming verandah with decorative lattice detail, wrapping around to meet the eastern entrance.
The spacious main bedroom continues the home’s original character, boasting vaulted timber ceilings, leadlight windows, original doors and floorboards, and a brick fireplace with wood burner beside a comfortable sitting nook.
Two additional bedrooms extend from the original entry hall. Both are inviting and include split-system heating/cooling and French doors that open to the front deck. Bedroom 3 also offers four large built-in robes. A second bathroom—with toilet, hob bath, and combined laundry-sits off the rear verandah.
In the backyard, an original outbuilding believed to have once housed the local schoolteacher now provides excellent storage.
The property also excels in infrastructure, with extensive shedding for machinery, multiple vehicle parking options, and a large barn converted into a studio and entertaining room. Its southwest-facing windows frame expansive views reaching toward the Tarago Reservoir, while the rear of the barn contains a substantial storage area with potential for conversion into a studio. Three large water tanks sit discreetly behind landscaped screening near the front deck.
