Originally built in the 1920’s by a well-known furniture merchant of the day, this historic property has so much to offer. Paradis is situated on 9.6 acres of beautiful gardens and temperate rainforest complete with an original 1920’s in-ground pool and hard surface tennis court as well as a 2 bedroom guest or manager’s cottage.

The eclectic main residence features large wide verandas, ideal for lazing away a Sunday afternoon and the original bluestone fireplace heats the entire home. A galley style kitchen includes under bench fridges, a large commercial oven and a light filled dining space overlooking a glass conservatory. There is also an office or third bedroom on this level. There is a guest bedroom and a master bedroom on the first level and a fantastic games room below the main living room converted from the garage that housed the original owner’s Rolls Royce.

Beside the main house there is a rustic 2 bedroom cottage ideal for extended family or guests. Bordering the Puffing Billy train line and surrounded by fern gullies, bellbirds and a wonderful array of other wildlife including echidnas, wombats and lyrebirds, this is the ideal place to relax and unwind. The cafes and shops of Belgrave are less than 5 minutes drive away and remarkably, as it seems a world away, the hustle and bustle of Melbourne is a short 45 minute drive.

If it’s a tree change or weekend escape you seek, Paradis is a must see.
