A Recreational Haven, Draped with History

Consisting of beautifully maintained gardens, freshly updated dwellings, and large shedding, all sprawled across five acres (approx.), this property is a lifestyle dream, rich in history.

The now home was originally erected in 1916 and was purpose-built to function as the Wandin East Primary School. The school was operational up until 1991. Since then it has been transformed into a space where you and the whole family can revel in the recreational aspects of the property.

The main dwelling is comprised of three bedrooms, all with BIRs and the master with ensuite and split system. Each room enjoys a view of the picturesque surrounds, bursting with greenery. The family bathroom has been recently updated to bring the home into this era. However, some aspects still hold the character of yesteryear. The old classroom still boasts high ceilings and polished timber floorboards, but has been transformed into the open plan kitchen/meals/living area soaked with natural light. Further enhancements are wood heater, Smeg gas stove oven and soft-closing drawers. There is also a detached studio, which consists of an additional three bedrooms and bathroom, thus comfortably accommodating for the entire family.

As you stroll around the grounds of this property, you would be forgiven for thinking you were wandering through a local recreational parkland. Encompassed by established trees, including a magnificent American Oak, this peaceful setting will be yours to savour. There is also a well-established herb garden and fruit orchard, which contains: nectarine, plum, apple, pear and lemon trees, as well as raspberry and blackberry. Escape the hustle and bustle of the rat race to your own secluded sanctuary, where the kids have room to zip around on motorbikes or BMX and you can enjoy sitting on the porch, sipping a cuppa and enjoying the blissful earthy surrounds.

Tradies will love the 18.4m x 15m (approx.) shed, with concrete floor, cool room and 3-phase power. The perfect space to tinker with machinery or even run a business. The property is also fully fenced for your security, with multiple gated access points and electronic main entrance.

This property presents you with the rare opportunity to own a piece of Yarra Valley history and enjoy a relaxed and retreated lifestyle.

We look forward to meeting you at one of our open for inspections. If you have any further enquiries, feel free to contact us anytime
