49-71 Hillmartin Lane, Diamond Creek, Vic 3089

Set on over seven and a half private acres, this weatherboard homestead sits in complete serenity. Life here unfolds at a gentler pace, framed by open grounds, in one of Diamond Creek's most tightly held rural pockets.

Ornate ceilings, rich cornices, herringbone parquetry floors and picture windows create a sense of charm, while an open plan family and meals zone flows to the kitchen and out to a wraparound verandah made for long lunches and quiet mornings. A separate dining room adds a further layer of occasion. Four bedrooms include a main suite with ensuite and two sets of built-in robes, while the remaining three with robes share a family bathroom. Two flexible study rooms suit those working from home, and a wine cellar with an established vineyard beyond will delight collectors. Outside, a substantial shed with power and water offers space for numerous vehicles, hobbies or storage.

Fully fenced and framed by mature trees, the property sits within easy reach of Diamond Creek's shopping precinct and train station for city-bound commuters, with the North East Link just five minutes away. Cafes, golf and tennis clubs are also nearby, while families are well placed near local schools, rounding out a rare lifestyle opportunity close to town yet a world apart.
