There’s a quiet magic to this home that reveals itself in moments - morning light through the trees as the kettle boils, doors opening to a living, breathing garden sanctuary where ancient oaks, maples and chestnuts form a shifting canopy above the tree ferns, and the warm embrace of the fire as the day winds down.
Whether you're cooking in the charming kitchen, gathered around the table with conversation unfolding, or curled up in the lounge beside the warmth of the Lopi wood heater, the connection to the outdoors is constant. French doors open wide, inviting the seasons in, while greenery follows you from space to space like a familiar companion.
Step outside and everything stretches. Afternoons roll gently into evenings as the sun moves across the lawn, kids and pets claiming the open space as their own. There’s always something to pick, plant or potter with - fruit trees heavy in season, berries within reach, a greenhouse waiting for its next project. Even the everyday feels a little richer here.
And then there are the in-between moments. A quiet cup of tea or a casual barbecue that turns into dinner on the reclaimed brick patio. The rustle of leaves overhead. Birdsong replacing the usual background noise. It’s a home that invites you to pause, without asking you to give anything up.
Inside, there’s room for everyone to find their place. Spaces to gather, and just as importantly, spaces to retreat - from the two generous living zones to the tucked-away main suite that offers a sense of calm at the end of the day. Whether it’s a lively weekend with friends, a cosy night in, or simply a day that unfolds at its own pace, the home adapts with ease.
Set within the exclusive One Tree Hill Road precinct and held by the same family for over two decades, this is a place where memories have been made - and where the next chapter feels ready to begin.
