44 Melba Avenue, Sunbury

Effortless ease defines this sensory-rich family sanctuary, where lifestyle and leisure take centre stage amid a calming, meditative ambience. Plantation shutters set a tailored tone, while lounge–dining unfolds with recessed detailing, shadow-box lighting, and a feature gas heater. Adjacent meals and a superb kitchen introduce deep-teal cabinetry, marble-effect surfaces, and Art-Deco-inspired tiling, delivering cooking ease with a walk-in pantry, SMEG wall oven/grill, 6-zone cooktop, and a Miele dishwasher.

A tranquil retreat-ideal for work or quiet pause-showcases a gorgeous exposed-timber vaulted ceiling and French doors granting independent access to the rear veranda, finished with rich Molasses New Guinea decking and Tassie Oak framing. Oriented north-to-rear, alfresco living excels with automated roller blinds and a peaceful outlook to the solar-heated ionised mineral pool, complete with waterfall feature, frameless glass fencing, and an in-ground cover; a leafy fernery easily doubles as a poolside cabana.

Inside, zoning is effortless via a Japanese-influenced barn door, allowing openness or privacy as desired. Accommodation is refined and flexible: the primary bedroom includes a modern ensuite with twin vanity, sparkling shower, and heated towel rail. Three further robed bedrooms offer excellent versatility-one graced by a clerestory window and raked ceiling; a 4th can function as a dressing room off the primary suite. A central bathroom pairs everyday function with soft luxury, its glass-block window inviting daylight while preserving privacy, alongside a niched shower, spa bath, and heated towel rail.

The 585m² (approx.) grounds are a botanical tableau hosting Weeping Cherry, wisteria, grapevine, maples, avocado, espaliered pear and plum, bougainvillea, Nandina, Paulownia, and manicured hedging-with front-yard irrigation. Premium inclusions enrich daily ease: a large concreted, separately powered shed with workshop area, double carport, side roller-door access for trailer/leisure parking, split-system air conditioning, double glazing, abundant storage (walk-in linen and attic via retractable ladder), a large galley laundry, awnings, solar panels, and 3 water tanks.

Backing onto Heysen Drive Reserve with nature trails to Spavin Lake-and within walking distance of the bus stop, local shops and café-the setting is zoned for Sunbury West Primary School and Sunbury Downs Secondary College, close to Holy Trinity, St Anne's, and Salesian College, with childcare, the Aldi complex, and swift Calder Freeway access nearby. A rare chance to live the high life in a home designed for restorative calm and effortless entertaining.
