Please park in Bridgewater Inn carpark.
Set below street level, the world passes by without ever knowing of this C1860 home with a partnering self-contained cottage and an architectural evolution so seamless, you would assume it's always been this way on an idyllic parcel overlooking Cox Creek.
Fashioned over several subtly changing levels, the historic main house offers a bevy of spaces, including a library, semi-hidden cellar, provincial kitchen, sunken bathroom and an atrium that was cleverly designed to send evening breezes through the core of the home, flushing out the day's heat in the process.
A north-facing rear aspect and a range of windows and French doors ensure natural light flows into a home that implores you to step out and onto its terraces, each creating the sense that you are floating over the creek.
From its Oregon timber rafters and stairs salvaged from the Adelaide Town Hall, the Mexican terracotta tile and wooden floors to the reclaimed doors and windows; its contrasting textures, hues and materials heighten the magic of a home enhanced with 'Feng Shui' in mind.
Meanwhile, the self-contained C1870s cottage - which just so happened to be the local police station in a former life - spans two levels, offers a kitchen and up to two bedrooms, and will delight guests.
Just metres from the The Bridgewater Inn, an iconic Hills landmark can be seen - but not heard - from this unique home in one very special setting.
