Positioned within what was once Murray's Farm a sprawling 190-acre holding owned by early settler John Murray in the mid-1850s the home forms part of a landscape steeped in local heritage, where past and present intertwine beautifully. From the outset, the story unfolds. A grand original door salvaged from Jolimont Railway Station makes a striking first impression, setting the tone for interiors defined by reclaimed materials and inspired design. Repurposed floorboards from a local basketball court stretch across the open-plan living domain, while soaring ceilings and magnificent exposed beams sourced from historic piers create warmth, scale and architectural drama. At the heart of the home, a granite fireplace anchors the expansive living, dining and kitchen zone. The central kitchen is both stylish and practical, appointed with granite benchtops, a 900mm stainless steel gas cooktop and oven, and abundant storage perfectly designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining. The main level accommodates three bedrooms, complemented by a versatile formal lounge, home office or 5th bedroom with direct access to the rear deck.

Nearby, an inviting rumpus/library offers yet another layer of flexible family space. Ascending the handcrafted timber staircase reveals a private mezzanine master retreat a sanctuary of its own. Featuring a walk-in robe, ensuite, and breathtaking outlook through a spectacular feature window sourced from a former South Yarra theatre, it's a space that feels both dramatic and deeply personal. Outdoors, multiple access points and hand-built doors spill onto a sprawling covered deck with ceiling fans overhead the perfect setting to entertain or unwind while overlooking the landscaped rear yard. Additional seating areas, secure off-street parking for a boat, caravan or trailer, and an oversized barn-style double garage with auto timber door and workshop space further enhance the lifestyle offering.
