27 Valley Ho, Chirnside Park, Vic 3116

Sunny afternoons on the deck with the Yarra Valley stretching into the distance, a caravan packed & ready in its own parking bay, kids claiming the downstairs retreat as their territory & friends gathering around the kitchen bench while dinner cooks. This is a home that gives family life room to spread out and evolve, with a comprehensively renovated mid-70s design that combines the solid bones & architectural confidence of its era with a crisp contemporary edge.

Elevated to capture beautiful natural light & sweeping rear views towards Christmas Hills, the split-level layout creates an easy sense of movement throughout. Bedrooms & hallway sit on the upper level before stepping down into the living spaces under soaring raked ceilings, where a separate lounge is framed by a striking floor-to-ceiling window softened with full-height sheers. Morning & afternoon light filters through beautifully, changing the mood of the room as the day moves on.

The open-plan kitchen & meals zone is made for people who like cooking to remain part of the conversation. A custom concrete benchtop brings texture & individuality, while the breakfast bar becomes the obvious gathering point for wine, platters & commentary from whoever has appointed themselves sous-chef. A freestanding electric cooker, Bosch dishwasher & generous storage handle the practicalities, with Christmas Hills views appearing from one of the kitchen’s best vantage points.

3 bedrooms occupy the main level, including a sun-kissed main suite with wall-to-wall robes & ensuite featuring a luxe rain shower & black accents. 2 further bedrooms sit beside the family bathroom & powder room, with one concealed behind a flush hallway door for a little unexpected intrigue.

Outdoors, the upper deck makes the most of the elevated position, with far-reaching Yarra Valley views providing a memorable backdrop for morning coffee or sundowner drinks. Beyond the deck, a lush sweep of lawn invites barefoot play, ball games & 4-legged zoomies, while the cubby house gives younger imaginations their own little headquarters. Come evening, the firepit zone takes over, with the smell of woodsmoke, marshmallows on sticks & conversation lingering long after the light has slipped from the hills.

At the front, a magnificent pink cherry blossom tree erupts into bloom each spring, arching over the garden so dramatically that neighbours & passing walkers have been known to stop for photos.

Downstairs, versatility reigns with a second living area opening to its own alfresco beneath a reclaimed Yarra Valley tin roof, creating an ideal rumpus or teenage zone. Nearby, a former home salon with sink, toilet, external access & split-system comfort could become a fourth bedroom, consulting room, business space or home salon once again. With the adjoining laundry & living area, there is clear scope to create a more independent multigenerational setup if desired.

Internal access leads to a double garage with workshop and storage, while additional front parking includes a dedicated caravan bay & another space for a car or trailer.

With ducted heating, split-system, 6.6kW solar panels & recently re-bedded & re-pointed roofing, the practical work has been well considered too.
