61 Claremont Ave, The Basin VIC 3154

• Flexible 4-bed layout incl. separate suite

Some homes are simply houses - but this one feels like a deep breath taken within a magical rainforest-like setting. Unassuming from the street, the façade hides a complete modern transformation: a lush haven where daily life unfolds against a living tapestry of tree ferns, filtered light and the melodic hum of a natural creek. It’s gentle, calming, almost meditative - a retreat for the soul as much as a functional family home.

Inside, the open-plan living zone revolves around warmth and connection. The family room’s wood fire sets a cosy tone, while bifold doors dissolve the boundary to the alfresco - letting nature, birdsong and fresh air become part of your everyday. The kitchen is a visual delight with a black stone sink, 900mm gas cooktop, electric oven, breakfast bar under pendant lights, integrated wine storage and a striking window splashback that pulls the lush greenery right indoors.

Accommodation is intuitive and practical - four bedrooms and two luxurious bathrooms, with the master suite privately positioned at the entrance and serviced by an elegant ensuite. Both bathrooms are dressed in floor-to-ceiling marble-look tiles, with rain showers, stone-topped vanities, and in the main: a deep, restorative soaking tub. For flexible living, creative work or independence, the fourth bedroom enjoys external access from the carport and its own elevated deck overlooking the gardens.

But it’s the outdoors that elevates this home into something magical. A lavish outdoor room with ceiling fan overlooks cascading greenery and the creek - a year-round entertainer’s haven and your personal sanctuary. Across the footbridge, a play-ready garden awaits: trampoline-worthy lawn, fern-lined pathways, and the sense that every leaf and birdcall is part of the story.

Nestled among ferns and whispering gums at the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges, this slice of The Basin feels remote yet sits wonderfully close to life’s essentials. The Mountain Highway will have you in Sassafras in minutes, or down to the village cafés and shops of The Basin even quicker. Schools, walking trails, and national parks are at hand, and you’re just a five-minute drive from Boronia or Ferntree Gully train stations. If you dream of rainforest mornings, kookaburra breakfasts and a home that feels like nature’s embrace - this is your moment.
