Beautiful north views to nearby Yarra River parkland and a native garden setting enhance the tranquil country ambience of this recently-renovated residence that's peacefully set in the Templestowe College zone. A highly sought-after Merchant Builders original, this surprisingly spacious, split-level home is a relaxing lifestyle sanctuary where organic character and outstanding features converge in prized leafy seclusion.

Superbly integrating with the outdoors, the brilliant design is open-plan yet intimate and perfectly unfolds revealing three double bedrooms (BIRs; main with WIR and new ensuite) and a wonderful study alcove with desk and two-way aquarium that's also enjoyed from the stunning new kitchen and meals area boasting Miele/Bosch stainless-steel appliances.

A large timber deck and huge entertainment terrace both with views are accessed from an ensemble of interior spaces under high Oregon-beamed timber ceilings. There's a dining area, a sitting area and a living room that doubles as a home theatre with fitted projector and screen. The stylish family bathroom is shining new as is the laundry, while there's also a powered workshop/storeroom and potting shed.

The list of state-of-the-art and sustainable features includes solar electricity, ducted heating, air-conditioning plus polished hardwood floors, rainwater tank, lock-up storage and double carport.

One of the area's best-kept secrets nestled privately beyond a service lane, this captivating recycled Hawthorn brick residence is a lifestyle inspiration with wonderful character, sophisticated style and excellent alfresco entertaining options close to Birrarrung Park, Heide Museum of Modern Art, river trails, Templestowe shopping, bus services, Heidelberg station, Westfield Shoppingtown and Eastern freeway to the city.
