“Chudleigh Park” – A Magnificent Mountain Retreat

Savouring a breathtaking setting amidst 5 acres of magnificent forests and botanic gardens, bounded by the State Forest and OxFam walking trail, this sensational contemporary residence with 3 self-contained cottages delivers an unforgettable lifestyle and business opportunity only 300m from Sassafras Village. Behind a grove of towering Sequoias, the stunning 5-bedroom main residence commands wonderful, picturesque outlooks across the lush, leafy undulating gardens with a rotunda, waterfall, billabong and walking tracks. The expansive reception hall introduces a media room opening to a west-facing balcony offering views to Corio Bay and the impressively spacious living and dining room with an open fire and gourmet kitchen appointed with stone benches, a coffee maker, 2 ovens and a butler’s pantry. The living spaces open to west-facing decks and to a huge north-facing sailcloth covered entertaining deck enjoying views over the gardens, billabong, and waterfall. Opening to the balcony or garden, two double bedrooms with robes and stylish ensuites are matched by two additional bedrooms with robes and a shared ensuite. On the lower level, there is a generous rumpus/recreation room with gas log fire and a superb self-contained 1-bedroom apartment ideal for guests or multi-generational living with modern kitchen, living room and bathroom. Set privately well away from the main house and currently operated as a business, the three self-contained cottages each comprise an open plan living room/bedroom and kitchenette with lavish bathroom, spa-bath and broad balcony offering tranquil views over the forest.
