Hidden within a serene, leafy enclave close to Rye's ocean beach, this captivating home unfolds like an adult treehouse embraced by its natural surroundings. Wrapped in striking Blackbutt cladding and set on a double-gated corner allotment, it is surrounded by a north-facing, paradisiacal garden of tall, twisting Moonahs, Indigenous plantings, a majestic hundred-year-old Norfolk pine, olive trees, raised vegetable beds, a deluxe chicken coop and children's playground integrated into the landscape. Outdoor living is central to the design, with a sheltered alfresco terrace featuring an outdoor kitchen, open fireplace, electric heating and rustic, half-shell sailing boat day bed. Inside, a flowing floorplan centres around an open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge zone that spills seamlessly to both front and rear decks, blurring the boundary between indoors and out. The kitchen pairs concrete benchtops with solid blackbutt timber custom cabinetry and black appliances, while timber floors, woven pendants, VJ wall panelling and a wood heater introduce warmth and texture throughout. Two bedrooms and a modern bathroom sit on the main level, with a private master suite upstairs appointed with an ensuite and private balcony. Downstairs, a generous fourth bedroom or multipurpose space is complemented by a plumbed storage room, easily converted into an ensuite if desired. Additional inclusions: separate, fully fitted home office, timber storage shed, outdoor shower, split-system air-conditioning and an oversized double lock-up garage.
