THE HOME: Flexible 380sqm (approx.) floorplan. Configurable as 5 bedrooms or multiple living zones, including a self-contained studio suite perfect for teenagers, extended family, guests, or potential high-yield income.
THE VIEW: Panoramic vistas across the Yarra Valley. The home has been designed to capture both sunrise and sunsets.
THE CONNECTIVITY: The best of both worlds: absolute solitude with local shops just 5 minutes away. Commuting is effortless with both Lilydale and Wattle Glen train stations less than 25 minutes away, offering an easy trip to the Melbourne CBD.
THE LIFESTYLE: Enjoy low-maintenance landscaping designed for relaxation, not hours of work. Spend your mornings with coffee on the deck watching wedge-tailed eagles and hot air balloons.
THE SAFETY: Ultimate peace of mind featuring a purpose-built concrete storage bunker and a comprehensive roof sprinkler system.
THE EFFICIENCY: Minimal running costs with a 7kW solar system, WiFi-enabled split-system air conditioning units in almost every room, EV enabled charge-socket and vast water storage supply.
Perched high on the sought-after side of Skyline Road, 1251 Skyline Road, Christmas Hills is an architecturally designed two-storey residence of approximately 380sqm under roofline, commanding truly breathtaking 360-degree views across the Yarra Valley with twinkling glimpses of the Melbourne skyline beyond. It offers the rare privilege of elevated, ever-changing outlooks.
A sweeping driveway (recently resurfaced) leads to the home, where you arrive via a deck and striking double doors that open into an impressive foyer. To the right, a substantial laundry provides excellent storage and external access. To the left, a well-appointed bedroom is serviced by a bathroom featuring a large shower, vanity and toilet. Further along, a generous study and bedroom/studio with kitchenette, sink, bench, wi-fi enabled split system and direct outdoor access offers exceptional versatility. This zone could easily function as a self-contained studio for teens, extended family, guests or potential Airbnb accommodation. The office has wool carpet, its own wi-fi enabled split system, double doors opening to the deck, and additional extensive storage beneath the staircase.
Ascending the staircase, beautifully framed by dramatic triangular feature windows, you arrive at the heart of the home. Bathed in natural light, the expansive open-plan kitchen, meals and living zone is wrapped in extensive double glazing, capturing the surrounding landscape from virtually every angle. Solid timber floors create a warm, refined atmosphere throughout the home. The kitchen is both functional and elegant, featuring a gas cooktop, electric under-bench oven, double sink, island bench and abundant cabinetry. A large window above the sink turns everyday tasks into moments of quiet enjoyment.
The living area is anchored by a striking combustion woodfire heater with built-in wood storage on either side, complemented by wi-fi enabled reverse-cycle heating and cooling for year-round comfort. Large double doors extend the living area onto an elevated deck overlooking the valley - an exceptional setting for entertaining or simply taking in the view.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a flexible room that may serve as an additional bedroom or alternative living area, complete with a wifi enabled split system. A separate hallway leads to the remaining accommodation, including the main bathroom and bedrooms. The master suite is a true retreat, featuring a walk-in robe, wifi enabled split system and breathtaking valley views. The central bathroom is beautifully finished with a large shower, bath, vanity and toilet. The second bedroom is generously sized, offering built-in robes, a study nook and its own wifi enabled split system.
Outdoor living has been carefully curated to offer a series of private vantage points for both entertaining and quiet reflection. Multiple timber decks provide ideal settings for hosting family and friends, enhanced by integrated lighting that creates a magical evening ambience. A purpose-built elevated arbour captures sweeping city and valley views - perfect for morning coffee and sunset drinks. From the kitchen deck, a private pathway also leads to a quiet seating area framed by mature trees, alongside a water tank and combined potting shed and woodshed. A firepit with rustic rock seating invites evenings spent under the stars. For moments of complete calm, a secluded all natural dam offers a peaceful water oasis to sit and unwind. A separate powered workshop with inbuilt racks invites you to tinker for hours.
Efficiency and low running costs are central to the home's design. Mains power reliability is paired with a 6kW inverter and almost 7kW of solar panels, significantly reducing electricity costs. A 15-amp socket supports fast EV charging. WiFi-enabled reverse-cycle air-conditioning and heating allows for automated control to operate during peak solar hours. A 115,000-litre (approx) water tank with UV filtration eliminates water rates, while an ultra-efficient Sanden heat pump services hot water.
Peace of mind is assured with extensive safety features, including an underground unit built by Wildfire Safety Bunkers Victoria, currently utilised as secure storage, along with a roof sprinkler system supported by a separate external pump.
Set on approximately 10 acres with around 3 acres cleared, the property remains easy to maintain.
An inspection is the only way to truly appreciate the tranquillity, versatility and extraordinary views on offer. This is a remarkable Christmas Hills residence delivering an exceptional lifestyle without compromise.
