About this property
Luxury 5***** Secluded, in Nature - Pet Friendly. Walk to village cafe's, shops
Nestled in a quiet street (7 min walk) in Olinda village in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges, 50 min from Melbourne CBD, you will find this Unique Gem! Oozing charisma, and beautiful eclectic luxury furniture collected from around the world with many Asian aspects, experience a stay that you will never forget.
Absorb the smells and senses of the gorgeous blooms and forest that envelop you as you relax with the whole family (up to 6 guests) at this stunning property.
Sit on the deck over-looking the back garden and enjoy the sound of "peace'... except for the variety of birds that visit in the mornings and afternoons.
Indulge in top of the range linen, feather down dooners, new beds and stylish decor. Each room is special with three QUEEN bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas, office space, full kitchen and even a butler's pantry and open fireplace. Everything you could wish for in a getaway or even a long stay?
Admire the parrots close up in the spacious outdoor living or stoke up the fire pit, take a short walk to shops, pubs, excellent nearby restaurants, IGA (like a small Coles), bakery and grocery market. You can even bring your furry friend(s).
Walking into the stylish entry, you are drawn down to the main living room with large open fireplace, sofa, and dining areas. Go through to the kitchen or detour straight into the butler's pantry with all your gathered goodies for a delicious meal or two.
The kitchen and butler's pantry are fully equipped with dishwasher, large fridge/freezer, microwave, oven, stovetop and all the crockery, cutler and implements you could need to cook your favourite ensembles of ingredients.
Relax in the second living area to read or watch TV, or retreat to the office space which can be enclosed for a private space to think and work.
The family bathroom is spacious and features a walk-in shower with rain shower, a large soaking tub beneath a huge window looking out into the garden and a toilet.
Opposite is the first queen 'blue bedroom', then the 2nd queen 'pink bedroom' and at the end of the hallway the master 'gold bedroom' with a full and private ensuite, views to the garden. Another person may sleep on the Italian Sofa in the informal living room, especially if he/she enjoys watching TV late into the night.
Outside there are huge expanses of decking with multiple outdoor furnishings to soak up the sun. And a half acre of gardens to enjoy including a fire pit if you're wanting to toast marshmallows!
Please supervise young children closely - the expensive and exquisite furniture and furnishings are much loved, thank you.

This house is even lovelier in person! It is beautiful, modern, but also cosy. Such a lovely setting and Sanchia was wonderful, nice enough to give us a 3pm checkout :)
We enjoyed a warm and cosy long weekend at this beautiful and high quality property. Sanchia is a kind and thoughtful host and we had everything we needed. The location is very convenient and makes a great base for exploring all the main attractions of the Dandenongs. We loved it!
Beautiful house and garden, with many thoughtful touches. Well equipped kitchen. Great communication with the host. Perfect base in the Dandenongs. Highly recommended.
Lovely well appointed place tucked away amidst the giant Victorian Ash.
The house has all modern conveniences and is exotically decorated with comfortable furniture. The deck is lovely to sit on and enjoy the view and listen to the birds and its also enclosed to keep pets contained. The garden is also well laid out and the fire pit is nestled down in the garden. It would be fantastic if the garden was enclosed to allow unsupervised pet access. All in all a wonderful place to stay.

Lovely, peaceful location and an interesting and fun house full of whimsy.
Really lovely setting within walking distance of Olinda (very steep for those who don’t like hills).Setting amazing -house beautifully eclectic the only issue we had was the sleeping - 5 adult females only 3 double beds no single sofa in the office and no sofa bed in the lounge only a sofa. So not what we were expecting from the description but we made do as the setting and house was beautiful.
Thanks so much for your thoughtfulness and lovely accomadation we felt like we were staying in an art gallery . We Would definitely stay again. Highly recommed .
