Driving up this verdant, tree-lined driveway you might anticipate something special ahead—and you would not be disappointed. Surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds, this family home offers an idyllic retreat.
A circular forecourt with a central garden bed provides easy access to the front of the house. Thoughtful design makes the most of this 1.2-hectare property, combining an expansive, light-filled home with a series of outdoor ‘rooms’.
Stepping inside, the craftsmanship is evident in details such as the beautiful hardwood timber flooring and practical, family-friendly layout. A spacious white kitchen is located at the heart of the home. Cooking is a pleasure here, with two ovens, stone benchtops, and excellent storage. An adjoining meals area, dining room and an inviting family room—with a wood burning fireplace—complete this central open plan space.
The five bedrooms include a generous master suite with ensuite, electric blinds and huge walk-in wardrobe. Sliding glass doors open directly onto a wide timber veranda that wraps around the house. A spa-quality main bathroom in the ‘east wing’ features a freestanding bath and large picture windows overlooking the garden.
Options for entertaining abound. An impressive alfresco room at the rear of the house once hosted a sit-down wedding for 62 guests, making it ideal for gatherings.
Outside, there are many spaces for relaxing and entertaining. A wide expanse of manicured lawn on one side of the house is bordered by hedges and complemented by two garden sheds, charmingly styled as vintage bathing sheds with brightly painted doors. An outdoor patio with a large brick fireplace is the perfect spot for toasting marshmallows on cool evenings.
Wine lovers will appreciate the 3000-bottle wine cellar beneath the rear of the house. With large timber beams, built-in storage racks and plenty of room to pull up a chair and share a glass, it offers a space to enjoy throughout the year. Green thumbs will also appreciate the extensive covered vegetable garden near the house. Designed to keep pests out, it holds multiple raised beds ready for planting.
Despite the sense of space and privacy, this very special property is just eight minutes’ drive from the centre of Singleton.
