About this property

The Arkadia - Scenic Villa with Pool and Basketball Court

In Greek Mythology, 'Arkadia' refers to a utopian Paradise with an idyllic vision of untouched wilderness. We bring that vision to life at this lush property, nestled amongst the flowering bush of Yarra Glen.

The Arkadia is the perfect retreat from the frantic hustle and bustle of the city. Take a moment to relax by the poolside and enjoy the sweeping views of the Yarra Valley in all its glory, as your children have the time of their lives splashing in the pool.
Have a quick game of pickup basketball on the custom court and regain your energy inside with a cool, refreshing drink in the lavishly furnished lounge area.

This 3-bedroom villa set on a 10-acre plot comfortably sleeps 9 people and has been outfitted for your optimal comfort yearlong, with full air conditioning, floor-heated bathrooms and a fully stocked kitchen and bbq, so feel free to make yourself at home. This architectural marvel features two separate lounge areas, divided by a flowering atrium within the house. Enjoy the freedom of taking some time to yourself or spending time with your loved ones with the abundance of entertainment and living spaces.

Let out your inner tree-hugger with a relaxing walk through the property, surrounded by the fluttering butterflies and soothing calls of the Australian bush. Wait for sunset to descend on the land to watch the house change into a golden dreamland, and ready your cameras to make the most of golden hour's breath-taking views from all over the property. Make sure to bring your favourite outfits for those ultimate cottagecore photoshoots!

While you may loose yourself in the enchanting wildlife ingrained into the property, The Arkadia is just an 8-minute drive from the Yarra Glen township, placing you in the heart of the Yarra Valley itself, with easy access to the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie, world-class wineries, restaurants and more.

Some of the many amenities hosted at The Arkadia include:
- Swimming Pool
- Basketball Court
- Table Tennis Table
- Foosball Table (including mini air hockey and pool tables)
- TV with Netflix Streaming
- Xbox Game Console
- Free Wifi
-Trail walk through the property

So come stay with us, and enjoy our little piece of Paradise

Amazing property and thoughtful host!
I stayed here for two nights with a group of friends. The property was beautiful and exactly as described in the ad. I was most impressed with how many thoughtful touches the host had left for us including lots of entertainment amenities and all the cooking equipment you could need for a short or long stay. The location was great too, a short distance from many lovely wineries in the area. If I was in the area again, I would definitely choose to come back!

Fantastic house and great views
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Arkadia. The house was clean and spacious, with all the relevant utilities. Waking up to the sunrise with kangaroos and birds close to the house was a highlight. The basketball court was a nice addition and was enjoyed by my fellow guests. The location was convenient and close to many of Yarra Glen’s best attractions. Overall, a very worthwhile experience.
