Reminiscent of a French chateau enhanced by classical European architectural influences, this extraordinary residence delivers a level of grandeur and craftsmanship rarely encountered, with a commanding presence accentuated by striking brickwork, lantern lighting, arched windows and doors, and a steeply pitched slate roofline.
An inviting pine-lined porch and ornate wrought-iron entry doors open to reveal stunning interiors where every element has been carefully resolved. Delicate dado wainscoting, rich engineered flooring, and 3m ceilings exude classic appeal, while a dramatic double-height circular foyer forms a central point of arrival, introducing spaces that balance scale with warmth, while delivering on wow-factor at every turn.
Grand open living and dining domains are anchored by a wood-fuelled fireplace, while the kitchen presents with distressed cream soft-timber cabinetry, solid DuPont and bullnose-edged granite benchtops, a Falcon Classic Deluxe oven with pressed-metal splashback, Miele dishwasher, and a fully appointed butler's pantry.
A club-style billiards room with Redgum wet bar, spotted gum panelling, and wood-fuelled heater provides an additional entertaining dimension, complemented by covered outdoor entertaining complete with a wood-fired pizza oven.
The ground floor also includes a formal lounge, theatre, and the 1st of 2 primary bedroom suites with walk-in robe and ensuite, alongside 2 powder rooms and a stone-finished laundry.
Upstairs, accommodation continues beneath 2.55m ceilings with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a substantial primary suite capturing Macedon Ranges views, complete with a sitting area, dressing room/WIR, and ensuite appointed with twin vanity, frameless glass shower, and clawfoot bath. A retreat and walk-in linen further enhance this level.
Surrounding the home, 1708m2 (approx.) landscaped grounds create a formal garden setting with irrigation to the front and very private rear yard, incorporating manicured lawns, topiary, Buxus, and a central fountain, alongside a children's playground, raised vegetable garden, garden shed, and a water tank.
A porte cochere leads to an oversized 3-car garage with rear roller door and workshop, complemented by a 2nd garage with attic. Additional premium features include PVC double glazed windows and doors, 3-phase power readiness, solar panels, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, quality window furnishings, CCTV, and intercom entry.
Positioned within a blue-ribbon end-of-court setting, the home is within the catchment for Gisborne Secondary College and close to Gisborne township and freeway access, offering a rare combination of scale, detail, and lasting appeal.
