MIDCENTURY MAGIC WITH PANORAMIC VIEW

All offers being presented this Friday 30th April at 4pm.

Definition of eyrie; lofty eagles nest built high in the mountains with panoramic view, artfully describing this truly special home perched at the top of The Eyrie, Lilydale overlooking the town with view all the way to Kangaroo Ground to the west, over towards Yarra Glen to the North and East to Mt Dandenong, it is absolutely breathtaking.

Somewhat unusually for the times, this much loved home built in 1959 was designed very much with the view in mind with large picture windows throughout and with stylish boomerang shape adding interest to the interior. Many of the home’s original 1950s features remain adding character and warmth to this cosy three bedroom nest.

Cosy it may be, but the living areas are expansive and light filled with views forever from every window and is particularly lovely in the winter months with sun streaming in. Discover rich timber panelling and slate fire surround with copper canopy over a wood burner, sash picture windows and French doors to the front terrace in the lounge room, sunny dining space and large kitchen with dishwasher. Sit on the front terrace on a summer evening and watch the traffic wend its way along Maroondah Hwy, trains come into the station and the magnificent sunset setting Mt Dandenong aglow.

Three old fashioned large sized bedrooms served by good size bathroom, separate toilet and laundry. There’s a covered rear deck to enjoy the easterly outlook, tandem remote double lock up garage, under house office/mancave, wine cellar and plenty of under house storage, all set on a good size 608m2 (approx.) block with private paved courtyard and neat landscaped and lawned front garden full of old fashioned plants. Modern comforts include gas ducted heating and reverse cycle split system.

Floating above the centre of town just fifteen minutes’ walk (according to google maps) to the station and less to the Melba Park, schools, supermarket, shops and cafes, this wonderful home will have you feeling on top of the world. Call us today!
