This very special, private hills home is an acquired taste, but a visionary buyer will appreciate its quirky charm & incredible potential. Starting with the massive rear deck, breathtaking views across the Silvan dam, framed by a century old oak tree. The lounge, master bedroom (with walk-in robes) & study/nursery all share this spectacular view. 3 more bedrooms, separate dining room, breakfast nook and generous bathroom with large spa-style bath, complete the picture. Centrally heated and with fan-boosted wood heater you will be snug all year round. The large block with terraced garden beds offer plenty to explore plus double carport and dual street entrances offer a plethora of possibilities. Within minutes to cafes and restaurants plus a new supermarket in Olinda, this solidly built home with hardwood "shadow boards has been re-stumped and rewired adding further to its potential. Whether it be an ensuite added to the master bedroom, a rumpus room underneath the deck, or a massive tree house for the kids (plans already drawn) you can contemplate them all over a glass of wine on the deck as you watch the sunset over the Yarra Valley.
