Delivering exceptional scale and versatility in a blissfully private rural setting, this impressive 5-bedroom home on 9.85 acres (approx.) of level land enjoys outstanding lifestyle convenience, just minutes from both Gisborne and Sunbury townships.
The home's exterior expresses distinct Tudor Revival elements, with stately curved entry steps and a broad portico creating a commanding 1st impression. Inside, dynamic interiors of dramatic proportions take advantage of the home's perfect north-to-rear orientation-ensuring abundant light across a series of flexible living and entertaining zones.
Formal lounge and dining spaces are anchored by an elegant granite-topped bar, while concertina doors offer the ability to create a fully independent East wing across 2 storeys. Meanwhile, the kitchen is tailored for large-scale entertaining, featuring 40mm-thick stone surfaces, glossy white 2-pac cabinetry, a twin sink with InSinkErator, an Electrolux wall oven and grill, a 900mm-wide Porter & Charles cooktop, and a Bosch dishwasher.
Family and meals areas are complemented by a generous rumpus room with a gas heater, a bar, and a thatched ceiling-perfectly suited to billiards or games. The ground floor accommodates 4 well-proportioned bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 2 powder rooms, with the main suite offering rear veranda access and a fully tiled ensuite.
Additional highlights include a study, sunroom, enclosed verandah with a Monet bridge, a fully fitted gym with a 6-seat sauna, an oversized remote-controlled double garage with internal access and a workshop area, 5 Daikin split systems, and a laundry with adjoining toilet.
Upstairs, the property reveals a completely self-contained zone with its own external entry. Ideal for multigenerational living, home business ventures, or short-stay rental use (STCA), this level comprises a spacious living area with bamboo flooring, a bedroom, bathroom, and a light-filled showroom/gallery. Walls of glass open to a spectacular balcony that captures uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside.
The grounds are a true highlight-beautifully landscaped and thoughtfully arranged with mature European trees, stringybark gums, seasonal plantings, and purpose-built infrastructure including 2 fully fenced sheep-proof paddocks, a 20m x 8m garage/workshop with concrete floor, power, and 4-door access (including rear entry), 2 large dams, 100,000-litre water storage, woodsheds, tool sheds, and a 2-bay horse shelter.
Set within the catchments for Willowbank Primary and Gisborne Secondary College, this remarkable estate is less than a 10-minute drive from local township supermarkets, cafés, medical centres, childcare facilities, and Calder Freeway access-placing exceptional lifestyle and practicality within easy reach.
