Description
Enveloped in serenity on 2.4 acres (approx) with indigenous gardens, native corridors and zoned paddocks, this two-storey eco retreat in the Merricks hinterlands showcases the most heavenly treechange or weekend escape between Port Phillip Bay and Western Port.
Reminiscent of a treehouse, the cedar-clad residence enchants with an adorable open-concept design, mezzanine-style sleeping wing, cathedral ceilings and clerestory windows drawing in the natural light and verdant vistas.
A spacious dining zone with polished concrete floors is encased in walls of windows and glass doors framing the landscape, while a central lounge beneath a soaring two-storey void with boho-rope chandelier is backdropped by a wood fire for snuggly winter afternoons with a good book.
A step down leads to the contemporary kitchen which delights with stainless steel Bosch and Fisher & Paykel appliances, stone countertops, a breakfast bar and a hidden European laundry in this owner-built lodge, which situates the master bedroom with modern ensuite, toilet and balcony upstairs gazing out across the treetops.
A mezzanine walkway spills into a large second bedroom with built-in loft bunk and ample room for a queen bed as well, while a light-filled attic-style home office or retreat above the double garage provides a wonderful space to work from home, write a novel or set up an artist’s studio.
With solar panels, battery backup, grey water system, a well-established veggie garden, chook run and Rota-loo compostable toilet hut, the residence is almost fully self-sufficient and off the grid, as well as teeming with appeal for the lucrative Airbnb market complete with a cubby house, built-in alfresco table, barbecue deck, firepit zone and negotiable powered camping teepee.
Zoned for highly-sought Balnarring Primary School and just 8-minutes’ drive to the village, the property is encircled by award-winning wineries, horse-riding trails and beaches.
