This presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a serene, rural lifestyle on a picturesque 5-acre property. Positioned at the high point of the land, the home offers stunning views over two paddocks and a decorative lake, making it an ideal setup for a hobby farm. The residence’s L-shaped design creates a seamless separation between living and sleeping areas.

The bedroom wing boasts a luxurious master bedroom featuring plantation shutters, built-in robes, and a private ensuite. Two additional spacious bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, share a dual vanity main bathroom, complemented by a powder room off the hallway. A dedicated study, which includes a European-style laundry, adds further convenience.

The expansive living spaces are designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The standout feature is the grand lounge room with a wood-fired heater set in a striking stone feature wall. This space provides sweeping rural views and opens to an expansive all-weather deck. Adjacent to the lounge room is a formal living room, a large dining area, and a well-equipped kitchen, which includes a Kleenmaid cooktop, oven, walk-in pantry, breakfast bar, and tiled splashback.

A sunroom opening off the dining room offers a cozy spot for enjoying winter sunlight, while a short flight of stairs leads down to a fully self-contained “granny flat.” This separate unit includes a living area with a kitchenette, a spacious bedroom with a walk-in robe, a bathroom, and its own laundry. Additionally, there is a separate home office space with its own entrance and adjoining storeroom.

The property is packed with practical features, including ducted heating and evaporative cooling, ducted vacuum system, polished timber floors, ample under-floor storage, and a semi-circular driveway. Storage shed, fox-proof chicken run, and ample parking for vehicles and equipment add to the property’s functionality.

Conveniently located, “Goombara” is less than five minutes from Lilydale’s retail precinct and train station. It’s within walking distance to Lilydale Heights College and zoned for Lilydale West Primary School, with Chirnside Park Shopping Centre and Yarra Valley wineries nearby. Golf enthusiasts will also appreciate the close proximity to several top-notch golf courses.
