Steeped in History that dates back to 1927 when this estate was the summer residence of a wealthy Melbourne family, Wannawong today is a grand five-bedroom hills home carefully restored and maintained true to the manner in which it was built; a fact not lost on many notable Melbournians who have called this place home over the journey. Set amid stately trees and terraced Edna Walling gardens at the end of a long, winding driveway, it's easy to see why this magical setting has provided much inspiration to artists and writers.
With its stately three-storey tower outside, to the solid oak panels and hardwood flooring inside, no detail has been compromised. With approx 40 squares of living and entertaining space in the main residence as well as a separate caretaker's cottage, Wannawong is also an entertainer's dream, boasting extensive patios, an outdoor in-built bar and barbeque, a gazebo and a croquet lawn suitable for marquees and garden parties. Split into three levels, the lower section of the main house offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a fourth bedroom/study. The strikingly renovated 'provincial farmhouse style kitchen' with euro appliances, marble bench-tops, pressed-metal splash-backs and a gorgeous limestone flooring is set to impress. As will the master bedroom, with its luxurious en-suite spa bathroom, large walk-in wardrobe & 'tower room'. With the self contained cottage plus display garage heading a list of features too numerous to mention here, you will see with your inspection that this home ticks boxes you didn't even know it could! Set on five lots with four titles with spectacular valley views, Wannawong is hidden from public view yet is a short stroll from shops, cafes, schools and a direct train service to Melbourne. This is a very special home with a lovely feel and wonderful story to share. If you've worked hard for it, come home to Wannawong and add your family's chapter to its history.
