Sophistication and elegance will impress you upon entering this well-loved hills home, a double story delight on almost ¾ acres of a gently sloping gardenscape. Immersed in its stunning natural landscape emanating a sense of sanctuary, the timeless architecture and design reflects nature’s beauty including timber accents throughout, skylit spaces and hardwood timber floors.
French doors from the grand entrance and dining zone flow to the kitchen heart with timber benches, an island walk in pantry and quality appliances. A main living area for your downtime is enhanced by a hills essential wood fire creating a cosy ambience and the elegant staircase a feature of the room.
Two bedrooms on the ground floor are complemented by a family bathroom with garden window and relaxing spa bath. Of course, nothing tops the master bedroom with ensuite and custom-fitted walk-in robe that finds refuge in its own upstairs wing with a view, best seen from the balcony. A fourth bedroom and retreat/home office is perfectly positioned on the other side of the stairwell with a built-in desk framed by a bay window to complete the functional, yet flexible floor plan.
Encased by stunning established mature plantings, outdoors is a wonderland in itself with meandering pathways framed by seasonal blooms to enchant the green thumbs including hydrangeas, camellias, maples…tree ferns…all the favourites.
The garden is also appreciated from the wide balcony that is perfect for entertaining or relaxing with your favourite brew with an abundance of garden nooks too to sit and appreciate the splendour.
