Good Design. Green Surroundings. A Different Pace.
If your idea of a tree change still involves thoughtful design, great food and a creative community, this might be the one.
Set privately behind established greenery on a beautifully landscaped quarter acre, this reimagined 1950s home offers the space and connection to nature you’ve been craving, with good design, village life and a creative community all part of the package.
Warm Tasmanian Oak floors, big windows and an easy open-plan layout give the home an immediately welcoming feel. Its distinctive renovation has been featured in The Design Files, and it’s easy to see why. The kitchen sits naturally at its heart, with custom Mountain Ash cabinetry, Italian terrazzo benchtops and Japanese tiles bringing together beautiful materials in a space that genuinely works for everyday life.
There’s personality throughout, but the overall feeling is warm and relaxed. Three bedrooms, a central bathroom, fireside living and generous windows framing the greenery make this a home for slow mornings, records playing over dinner, friends around the table and weekends that don’t require much of a plan.
Outside, the garden is lush, private and established. A curved gravel driveway, layered naturalistic planting and a modernist carport give the property its own distinctive character, while the rear deck is ready for long lunches that turn into dinner.
For a permanent move, it offers the chance to trade density for space, greenery and a different pace without disappearing from civilisation. As a second home, it’s an easy escape that feels much further from Melbourne than it really is.
And then there’s Kallista. A small, creative village surrounded by some of the Dandenong Ranges’ most beautiful forest, where coffee, dinner and a walk beneath towering Mountain Ash can all be part of the same day.
