Overview

THE STORY....

Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this home occupies a rare position backing directly onto Rob Roy nature reserve, with walking trails beyond the fence and uninterrupted views across to the Brindabellas. Chosen in 2011 for its privacy and outlook, it has been a true sanctuary ever since, with every part of its design making the most of the setting. The entry opens into a formal front living room, a light-filled space that sets the tone for the home. Opposite, the main bedroom suite occupies its own private wing, expansive and serene, with a retreat-like feel, a full walk-in wardrobe, and a spacious ensuite. Three additional bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, share a centrally located main bathroom. At the heart of the home lies the open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area. The kitchen features a wide induction cooktop and a large electric oven, complemented by a walk-in pantry spacious enough for small appliances and a full-size freezer. Adjoining dining and family room flow seamlessly, creating distinct yet connected zones, all carefully designed for comfort. Heating and cooling are thoughtfully integrated throughout, with ducted gas heating, zoned in-slab heating across the home, and Fujitsu reverse-cycle systems in both the lounge and family room. Over the years, the home has been thoughtfully upgraded to enhance both comfort and lifestyle. A Vogue pergola covers part of the front deck, creating a versatile outdoor space that frames the view. LED downlights brighten the interior, the kitchen has been upgraded from gas to electric cooking, additional electric heating was added to the lounge and family rooms, and the fence along the reserve boundary has been extended for added security. The deck remains the defining feature of the home, where mornings begin with breakfast overlooking the mountains and evenings close with sunsets across the Brindabellas. It captures the landscape at every hour and is a space that will be deeply missed. Built with practicality and everyday living in mind, this home balances functional design with a rare setting on the edge of the reserve. Quiet, considered, and connected to its surroundings, it offers a lifestyle that is difficult to replicate.
