Silvan Dam View - Family Mountain House

HIRE 1.5 ACRE GROUNDS AND HOUSE FOR WEDDINGS, EVENTS & RETREATS.
Wake among the clouds overlooking Sir Arthur Streeton's Silvan Dam! This view has been captured by one of Australia's prominent expressionist painters - Sir Arthur Streeton (https://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/multimedia/arthur-streeton-the-artist/). Enjoy the curated gardens inspired by Edna Walling (adb.anu.edu.au/biography/walling-edna-margaret-11946) featuring hydrangeas, azaleas, roses, proteas, waratahs, golden wattle and camelias. Feast on local organic produce and wines from the surrounding Seville, Wandin and the greater Yarra Valley (20 mins drive, tours available). Hand-feed Kookaburras, King Parrots, see the Rosellas, Lorikeets, Cockatoos, the resident Bowerbirds, the local Peacock and choose from several locations across the property to enjoy picnics, lunch and the gardens. Surrounding the property are several famous hiking trails, waterfalls, National park lands and the famous Botanical Gardens. A 30 minute walk to the summit of Mount Dandenong at Sky High and enjoy the sunset over 180 degree Melbourne City views from Bourke's Lookout. Falls Road is an original settlement on Mount Dandenong; an historical tapestry that describes a place enriched by the Gold rush and the past century of Industrialisation throughout Melbourne.
