The style and elegance of this mid-century modern country house characterises this delightful property, which recaptures the imaginative and adventurous design of its era.
The house is set in a spectacular garden, with a stone lined and heated swimming pool, with separate guest accommodation. This is a country retreat like no other, renovated to the highest standard and extending to 1.1 hectares/2.9 acres (approx.) of land.
Inside, the functional, semi-open plan defines an interior that adapts equally to comfortable family living and to easy entertaining.
Free-flowing living and dining spaces, a study, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a self-contained fourth bedroom, incorporated into a motoring aficionado’s three-car garage and workshop, are enhanced with the finest finishes and features. Every element has been chosen for the excellence of its quality, including Listone Giordano timber floors, Bisazza glass mosaic tiles, Pietra Cardosa stone, Artemide, Flos and Herman Miller lighting, a Traforart circular wood-burning fireplace, and Fornasetti and Pierre Frey wallpapers throughout. High-end kitchen appliances include Bertazzoni Professional Series convection and steam ovens, gas range and warming drawer, and an Ilve wine fridge.
Comfort and style are the keynotes of the main bedroom suite with its verdant views on three sides, ultra-smart ensuite and custom-designed mirrored cabinetry. All three bathrooms merge form and function, and a mudroom/laundry offers custom-made storage in addition. The luxury fitout matches exacting construction, which includes new double-glazed windows, a new roof, re-plumbed, re-wired, full insulation with new plasterwork throughout, 13.5-kilowatt solar power system and a Tesla battery.
Outside everything is subordinated to aesthetic appeal and the comforts of country living. Poolside dining is taken to its ultimate level with a Palazzetti Vulcano wood-fired barbecue and pizza oven, there’s a wide expanse of terrace and lawn space, and weatherproof awnings. Your swimming season is extended thanks to heat-pump heating and a retractable cover on the pool. The garden is lovely at all times of the year with its soaring trees, wealth of hydrangeas and other woodland plantings and rural views over paddocks and forest. The beauty of the garden is combined with the practicality of irrigation, a bore for water with filtration, garden lighting, two greenhouses, and a stainless-steel potting station.
This is an outstanding retreat which has been brought to its full potential through a no-expense-spared transformation.
