Set amidst beautifully landscaped gardens and directly opposite the leafy expanse of Ruffey Lake Park, this impressive double-storey home offers a lifestyle of peace, privacy, and connection to nature. A driveway lined with established trees leads you to the elegant façade, hinting at the charm and warmth that awaits inside – a timeless home in a truly enviable location, just steps from one of Melbourne’s most loved parklands.

Inside, lofty ceilings and soft, filtered light through plantation-shuttered windows create a welcoming, sophisticated atmosphere. The wide entrance hall flows down to a sunken formal lounge, where large windows frame views of the garden and a tranquil water feature. The adjoining dining room opens through double French doors to the paved alfresco, making indoor-outdoor living effortless.

The heart of the home – the main living, meals, and kitchen areas – is beautifully unified by herringbone parquet flooring. With a cosy fireplace and garden views that extend to the rear patio and backyard, it’s a space designed for both relaxed family life and entertaining. The kitchen is a showpiece, featuring a stone-topped island breakfast bar, glass splashback, integrated Neff wall oven, induction cooktop and microwave, extensive cabinetry, and built-in surround sound that flows throughout the living areas.

Upstairs, five light-filled bedrooms enjoy leafy views, with two opening onto a private balcony. The main suite includes a walk-in robe and a designer ensuite with a freestanding bath and frameless shower, while a central bathroom with separate bath and shower serves the remaining bedrooms. On the ground floor, a generous study offers flexibility and could easily be used as an additional bedroom or guest room.

Outside, the paved undercover alfresco is ideal for entertaining, complete with a built-in BBQ and cabinetry, and can be accessed from the meals area or via a charming garden path lined with flowering trees. Additional highlights include internal garage access, ducted heating, evaporative cooling upstairs, a garden shed, and expansive grassed areas.

Opposite Ruffey Lake Park, within walking distance to Doncaster Secondary College, close to Yarra Valley Grammar and Donvale Christian College, and just minutes from Westfield Doncaster and the Eastern Freeway, this home perfectly balances serene family living with city convenience.
