Introducing "Coeur De Lion" French Chateau, where inspiration, landscape and luxury converge to create an unparalleled lifestyle experience on approximately 30 acres. Beautifully bordering the Mount Dandenong Ranges and the Yarra Valley, the grand estate showcases an architect-designed residence and dual guest cottages, creating an ideal environment for running a bed and breakfast or other business endeavours.

A stately automatic-gated driveway extends a warm invitation, ushering you onto the expansive grounds with impeccably maintained gardens. Utterly resplendent, the main residence inspired by a French chateau encompasses an extensive tri-level floorplan with exceptional craftsmanship. Solid timber finishes such as American Cherry, Jarrah, Sapelli and Cedar feature throughout, including the sweeping Jarrah staircase that adorns the entrance foyer. A compound for family and friends to unite, unwind and entertain, the residence unveils several casual and formal spaces, complemented by a gourmet kitchen, multiple verandahs, a barbeque area and a covered alfresco that overlooks the impressive gardens. Four robed bedrooms and a home theatre room are serviced by four bathrooms and a powder room in the main residence. This includes a lavish first-floor suite that contains a retreat, a library with an open fireplace, two walk-in wardrobes, a balcony and an en-suite.

The two separate cottages are each self-contained, making them ideal for accommodating multigenerational families or for leasing purposes. They come complete with two bedrooms, one or two bathrooms, offices, living/dining spaces, kitchens, decks, workshops and undercover parking.

Replete with a remarkable array of features, this exquisite estate, nestled in the serene countryside just an hour from Melbourne's CBD, offers an opportunity that must be personally witnessed to grasp its full magnificence.
