8-10 Minter Court, Park Orchards, VIC, 3114, Australia

Heavenly 25-acre (approx.) Sanctuary

Introducing a place of peace and natural beauty, where tranquil treed scenery, an architectural masterpiece and resort-style grounds meld magnificently, resulting in a heavenly 25-acre (approx) sanctuary. Proudly resting at the far end of the exclusive Minter Court Conservation, the gated estate is part of one of the last remaining areas of natural bushland in the Eastern suburbs.

Beautifully embraced by native flora, the grounds are accessed via dual electric gates and an extensive wrap-around driveway. Designed with a nod to its environment, the mud brick residence showcases a sprawling multi-tier layout; highlighted by vaulted ceilings, solid timber frame windows and doors and intricate lead lighting that pays homage to the resident bird and wildlife.

Inside, a wide entrance hall and curved gallery, set the stage for relaxed living and entertaining; where casual lounge and dining rooms link up with a wrap-around balcony that has café blinds, shade awnings and sweeping views across the valley.

A gourmet Gaggenau-equipped kitchen is anchored at the heart of the home. It has dual ovens, an induction cooktop, an integrated fridge and coffee machine, a Miele dishwasher, timber cabinetry, granite countertops and a walk-in pantry.

Generously accommodating, there are 3 separate wings for sleep; a total of 4 bedrooms - each with WIRs and their own covered alfresco areas. There is also a home office/5th bedroom with external access. A rumpus and a retreat complement the sleeping quarters, serviced by 3 bathrooms, an indulgent spa room and a powder room. An open loft overlooks the entire home, grounds and valley; making it a scenic study or hobby space.

Outside, the manicured backyard is a private oasis designed for entertaining. It stars a lagoon solar heated pool, a pavilion with outdoor kitchen, a spa gazebo and a flood-lit tennis court.

Features include: hydronic wall heating, multiple fireplaces, air-conditioning, alarm system, ducted vacuum, wine cellar, 10kW solar power, extensive storage, garden irrigation, a remote 4 car garage with internal-access, a double carport plus an abundance of driveway parking.

Secure this one-of-a-kind hideaway and you'll never need to take a holiday. Close to local shops, Whitefriars, Luther College, Yarra Valley Grammar, The Pines, Eastland and Eastlink.
