Offering grace and grandeur with a touch of modern sophistication, this superb five-bedroom home and self-contained guest cottage set amid mature gardens on more than ¾ of an acre is a jewel in the crown of Mt Eliza's Woodlands Estate.
With bay views, an inground pool, adventure playground and inground trampoline for the kids, family living has never looked so good with space to live and entertain and a peaceful leafy setting to enjoy.
The showpiece two-storey brick residence sits beyond remote gates and a sealed driveway that circles in front of the home, while delicate iron lacework adorning the wraparound balcony harks back to the Victorian era.
Inside, a grand tiled entry with sweeping staircase to the first floor is flanked by a guest room with two-way ensuite and an elegant formal study or fifth bedroom, while tucked out of sight is a large family laundry with stone surfaces and loads of smart storage.
Straight ahead, the heart of the home is a vast open-plan affair with generous spaces for lounging and dining and everyday meals at home, while sliding doors expand the space out to the rear deck and the pool set lower in the garden, creating the perfect spot for sophisticated summer soirees.
Leaving nothing to chance, the superb stone-topped kitchen boasts quality stainless steel appliances including a Bosch dishwasher, a handy appliance cabinet and plenty of sleek white cabinetry to ensure a place for everything and everything in its place.
Upstairs, a supremely versatile second living area will work beautifully as a private family lounge, parents' retreat or even a games and homework zone for the teenagers, while large windows frame beautiful bay views across the treetops and sliding doors open to the balcony.
Also blessed with views, the master bedroom has a fitted walk-in robe and deluxe spa ensuite with frameless walk-in shower, while two more bedrooms, both with built-in robes, share the sleek and fully tiled family bathroom.
Adding fabulous flexibility to family life or potential home office, a detached guest cottage with bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette offers overnight guests their privacy or independence for older children or in-laws.
