Dandenong Ranges garden escape Quiddity sold

The Dandenong Ranges garden escape Quiddity, has been sold by Rosemary Grieve.

It was her Olinda home of 24 years.

The home, on 4.3 hectares, was designed by the late American architect Brook McWilliams influenced by his American and English heritage.

Recycled materials were used throughout the main residence and the self-contained cottage, with recycled floorboards featuring in the living and dining space, heated by an open fireplace.

The open plan area meets the Sydney blue gum fitted kitchen from an old NSW pier and opens to a wrap around verandah.

The cottage, set away from the home, has two bedrooms. 

A swimming pool sits in the lush private gardens.

Abercromby's agents Jock Langley and Robert McArthur were marketing the estate with a $2.7 million to $2.97 million guide, after it has been initially listed in April last year with a price range of $3.5 million to $3.85 million.
