Diamond Creek VIC 3089

Located on almost seven useable acres with views to the Kinglake & Dandenong ranges create the sublime setting for this unique, resort-style family home only minutes from the township of Diamond Creek.

Secluded at the top of a hill, with a home cinema, floodlit tennis court, gym, cricket pitch and spectacular stackstone infinity pool, this property turns every moment spent into that of a holiday at a five-star hideaway. There's room for horses and sheep, boats and bikes, and for the hordes of friends and family who'll be seeking excuses to linger as long as they can- with the added space and amenities to accommodate them.

This sumptuous, single-storey house is designed by local architect Gary McFarlane and features porcelain and Caesarstone finishes, parquet floors, semi-recessed ceilings and full-length windows framing views of the outdoor play areas and peaceful countryside. The family and meals area is fitted with self-closing doors to the terrace above the pool and dutifully warmed in the cooler months by the Coonara wood fireplace.

Utilising the outdoor haven can be done with ease, with the benefit of cafe blinds and strip heaters in the fully fitted outdoor kitchen area and the immaculate landscaped backyard, where a combination of synthetic grass and paving allows for minimal maintenance and preparation whilst also providing aesthetic enjoyment year wide.

The grandeur is not lost in the formal dining room which comfortably seats 12, and guests are ably catered for in the elegant Caesarstone kitchen, with walk in pantry and a suite of Miele and De Dietrich appliances including a coffee machine. The luxury continues with the fully equipped home cinema, a parquet games room with electric fireplace, an office and even hair salon, completing the communal spaces that make this house such a spacious, well-conceived pleasure.

In the eastern wing, the main bedroom suite offers quiet sanctuary with a large fitted dressing room and a deluxe bathroom with a twin-seat Lanark spa. The second bedroom is also fitted with an ensuite bathroom while two more bathrooms provide a semi ensuite and act as a walk through for four double bedrooms.

Trades people will be impressed with the oversized brick workshop complete with additional storage areas, mezanine and large concrete apron area to tinker with.
