Stefworth Manor is beautifully situated in the Meehan Range just off Acton Drive, a sublime setting for this very substantial residence constructed in 1993 in the Federation style with a nod to that architectural era apparent throughout. The allotment is expansive at 2 hectares and adjoins the Tangara Trail, a popular network of tracks for horse riders and walkers.
Great first impressions are 'gold' and this property does not disappoint.
Upon catching a glimpse of the tall Photinia hedge spanning the rear facade and the roofline just visible at the top of Stefworth Lane, expectations are high!
An attractive gated entrance and circular driveway is equally inviting and lead to the front door and verandah, which opens to a central hallway which truly makes a statement...gracious and elegant with generous proportions. Bold chequerboard ceramic tiles are striking and run the full length of this space. All 4 double bedrooms plus a study which could be a 5th bedroom are adjacent to the hallway. The master bedroom enjoys privacy with a walk in dressing room and spacious new en suite bathroom. Built in wardrobes and bay windows feature in the other bedrooms which are serviced by a designated laundry, a lovely new renovated bathroom and 2 powder rooms.
Most of the accommodation is on one level. A bespoke staircase in a Queensland timber with matching overhead fretwork is spectacular and leads to a media room, a fabulous space, ideal for a variety of uses... with picture windows showcasing the lovely rural views towards Pittwater over the rolling greenscape of Acton Park.
A huge room living with a charming bay window extends to a long verandah accessed through French doors. The kitchen is also of generous proportions with gorgeous granite bench tops, dining and casual living spaces which also enjoy French door access to the verandah and a gazebo...perfect for entertaining year round.
Established gardens, fruit trees, lush surrounds, a waterhole and even a working vineyard make for a dream setting and complement leisure areas such as the freestanding swimming pool house complete with kitchenette, shower and powder room. The vineyard comprises 1000 vines of Pinot Noir, planted in 2002 one of the noble French varieties. Harvests have been sold to Pooley and Glatzer- Dixon Family Wines. The family do have their own label Blue Devil.
There is massive 'hidden value' in terms of extra features here from 40 solar panels, ducted vacuum cleaning, underfloor, wood and panel heating garaging for 3 vehicles in addition to a workshop and shed.
This is a stunning lifestyle property which will tick most boxes for a modern family in terms of comfort and amenities. The location is wonderfully central, an easy commute and equi distant to Hobart airport, the city fringe, Seven Mile and Roches Beaches to nearby Lauderdale where retail services and cafes are situated.
Grasp this incredible opportunity to relax and embrace the best of both worlds!
