2 Elonara Court, Wheelers Hill, Vic 3150

Some homes impress with their size. Others with their setting. At 2 Elonara Court, it is the combination of grand family proportions, beautiful established surroundings and an extraordinary collection of lifestyle spaces that makes this Golden Mile residence something special.

Set across 1,438sqm approx. in one of Wheelers Hill's most prestigious pockets, this substantial four-bedroom plus study residence has been designed for a family that wants room to live, entertain and unwind without having to leave home.

The sense of occasion begins at the entrance, where soaring ceilings and a distinctive curved glazed water feature introduce an interior of impressive scale and individuality. From here, the formal lounge makes its own statement with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, towering windows, warm timber flooring and an elegant marble-surround fireplace. A separate formal dining room provides another sophisticated setting for entertaining.

The scale continues through to the home's relaxed living spaces. Bathed in northerly light and opening beautifully towards the gardens and pool, the expansive family room combines soaring ceilings with an open fireplace and custom wet bar, creating a space equally suited to quiet afternoons and larger gatherings.

A separate rumpus provides the flexibility every substantial family home needs, a children's retreat, media room or recreation space, while the generous casual meals area brings everyday life together around an extensive granite kitchen with premium Siemens appliances, including convection, microwave and steam ovens.

Accommodation has been cleverly separated to give everyone their own space. Three generous ground-floor bedrooms feature walk-in robes, including one with its own ensuite, while the upper level is reserved for an impressive main-bedroom sanctuary. Complete with walk-in robe, spa ensuite with dual vanities and double shower, the suite enjoys an elevated outlook towards the Dandenong Ranges.

Working from home is equally well considered, with a dedicated study featuring three built-in workstations, while below ground lies one of the home's more unexpected features – a full-height, double-brick wine cellar with wine racks and custom lighting.

Outside is where this remarkable property starts to feel more like a private resort.

Beautiful established gardens and cascading flowering wisteria frame the heated mineral swimming pool and spa, creating a wonderfully private backdrop for long summer days. Expansive paved surrounds provide room to gather poolside, while the covered alfresco BBQ area with open fireplace extends entertaining through the seasons.

A separate cabana with bathroom and cedar steam sauna adds another layer to the experience, and beyond the pool, the half tennis court completes a recreation zone that makes weekends at home particularly hard to leave.

The practical credentials are just as impressive. A huge four-car remote garage with built-in storage provides exceptional vehicle accommodation, complemented by hydronic heating, reverse-cycle cooling, smart-home controlled alarm and camera security, ducted vacuum, double glazing, 5kW solar, extensive rainwater and treated grey-water storage, irrigation and further storage throughout.

All of this comes with the privilege of a tightly held Golden Mile address, close to Caulfield Grammar's Wheelers Hill Campus and Jells Park, along with Wheelers Hill Primary School, Brentwood Secondary College, Wheelers Hill Shopping Centre, Brandon Park Shopping Centre and The Glen, with Glen Waverley Station, EastLink and the Monash Freeway also within easy reach.
