A compact, purpose-built equestrian property perfectly positioned for a balanced lifestyle – enjoy your horses and the country life while staying within easy reach of Pakenham and Melbourne’s suburbs.

Set on five acres of breathtaking botanical gardens and high-quality equestrian facilities, this peaceful and private property is a true sanctuary. A picturesque pond with feature bridges sits at the heart of the gardens, adding to the charm of the setting.

Perched in an elevated position, the bespoke cottage offers immersive views across the surrounding fern gully and gardens. Infused with classic elegance and tastefully modernised, its light-filled interiors feature Blackbutt floorboards, double-hung windows, and a unique sense of style.

The beautifully updated country-style kitchen, featuring European appliances and hardwood timber countertops, overlooks the decked entertaining area and manicured gardens. The dining area enjoys views of mature camellias and a striking weeping elm, while the living room, anchored by a wood fire salvaged from an 18th-century church, frames picture-perfect views. Three generous bedrooms are serviced by a contemporary bathroom with a cast iron clawfoot bath and a separate toilet.

Adding further versatility, the detached architectural studio boasts exposed beams, a vaulted ceiling with clerestory windows that flood the space with natural light, and a stunning treetop outlook. Complete with kitchenette and bathroom amenities, it’s ideal as a fourth bedroom, guest accommodation, or a work-from-home space.

Designed as a boutique equestrian haven, the property prioritises safety and attention to detail. Facilities include two lined stables, a day yard with wash area, and a sand arena. Four double-fenced post-and-rail electric paddocks, each with reticulated water, are easily accessed via tree-lined laneways. The expansive 14.2m x 7.9m barn provides ample space for a workshop, storage, feed, or tack room, further enhanced by additional sundry shedding.

Ideally located just 10 minutes from the M1 Freeway, rail, shops, and schools, the property also offers dual road access, is within walking distance to public transport, and is well-serviced by school buses. With its established gardens, beautifully modernised home, flexible living options, and outstanding equestrian facilities, "Chartwell" presents a rare opportunity to embrace country living without compromise.
