Privately held within more than two hectares of magnificent established gardens, 10 Correa Drive, Relbia is a beautifully resolved country estate where classical farmhouse architecture, mature landscape and thoughtful contemporary additions come together with remarkable ease.
The house has an immediate sense of permanence. Dormer windows, broad verandahs and traditional proportions give it the character of a long-established country residence, while two striking glazed wings introduce a distinctly more contemporary architectural language. Rather than competing with the original home, these additions extend it into the garden, creating rooms that feel immersed in the landscape.
One accommodates the dining room, where full-height double glazing captures the changing garden throughout the seasons. The other forms the principal bedroom suite, giving this private retreat an almost pavilion-like quality. Oatlands Thunderstone underfoot, underfloor heating and carefully detailed finishes add substance and comfort without diminishing the simplicity of the architecture.
The result is a house that moves comfortably between two characters: the solidity and intimacy of a traditional farmhouse and the openness of spaces conceived almost entirely around light, glass and landscape.
At the centre of the home, the kitchen has been designed for genuine everyday use, with Caesarstone surfaces, a substantial island, quality appliances and generous storage. It connects naturally with the informal family area, while two further living rooms provide a choice of more intimate spaces for reading, entertaining or retreat. A fireplace introduces warmth and familiarity, reinforcing the sense that this remains, above all, a deeply comfortable home.
Accommodation is generous without feeling excessive. The principal suite occupies the ground floor and includes a dressing room and ensuite, while three additional bedrooms upstairs are served by a beautifully updated bathroom. The arrangement works particularly well for family life, allowing separation between the main suite and secondary accommodation while keeping the house connected.
The gardens are fundamental to the experience of the property.
Sweeping lawns disappear beneath magnificent mature trees; clipped hedging creates structure and enclosure; flowering borders shift with the seasons; and glimpses of the house are revealed gradually as you move through the grounds. An established orchard, productive vegetable gardens and sheltered outdoor spaces add another layer to the estate, creating a landscape that feels both ornamental and genuinely useful.
The estate has also been thoughtfully configured with equestrian use in mind. A dedicated stable outbuilding, tack and storage facilities and a series of segregated paddocks allow horses to be managed easily across the property, with controlled grazing and rotation built naturally into the layout. The paddocks sit comfortably within the broader garden and rural landscape rather than dominating it, allowing the property to function equally well as a refined country residence and a genuinely practical home for horse lovers. Currently home to two beautiful horses, the infrastructure demonstrates how readily the estate accommodates equestrian life without compromising the outlook, gardens or sense of arrival.
Beyond this, the property offers substantial supporting infrastructure, including generous garaging, workshops and shedding, horse-float accommodation, comprehensive irrigation, significant water storage and solar infrastructure. Together, these elements provide the practical framework for a lifestyle that can be as productive, self-sufficient or simply relaxed as its next owners choose.
Despite its privacy, the estate is remarkably well connected. Josef Chromy Wines is within walking distance, while central Launceston, leading schools and the airport are all readily accessible - allowing a genuinely rural way of life without sacrificing everyday convenience.
What distinguishes 10 Correa Drive is the completeness of the offering. It is not simply a substantial home on acreage, nor simply a beautiful garden. It is an established estate where architecture, landscape and infrastructure have been considered together over time.
For those seeking the space and privacy of the country without surrendering architectural interest, comfort or proximity to Launceston, it represents an increasingly rare opportunity in one of Relbia's most admired settings.
