Seclusion, in full bloom, high above Stirling. This home has been transformed by a substantial contemporary extension - one that centres the residence over its own beautifully vast, private acre where treetop views stretch as far as the eye can see.
Driving up toward the wraparound verandah and stone-fronted façade, the grand first impression is immediate, continuing into an entry hall framed by ornate archways and lofty ceilings. From here, it branches - a master suite to one side, open-plan living to the other, and sash windows always there to draw the landscape in close.
Five bedrooms unfold across the reworked layout. The primary claims its own private wing - a walk-in robe and decadent fully tiled ensuite with underfloor heating, a welcome luxury come the cooler months.
Ahead of it, a home office stands ready with built-in desks, a cosy second lounge overlooks the pool, and the powder room is wallpapered in playful print. Four further bedrooms each capture their own outlook from the original wing, sharing another main bathroom, also fully tiled with premium fittings and warmed underfoot.
The custom kitchen commands the open-plan design. Thick Dekton benchtops, Bosch appliances and an imported Rayburn wood stove set against navy shaker cabinetry complete a chic ensemble. Pocket doors reveal a concealed bar, placed alongside a butler's pantry with second oven proving invaluable when preparing Christmas lunch.
An in-ground pool, solar-heated for warmth in every season, sits alongside a rustic pergola - a space built for entertaining, or simply for slowing down and enjoying the view with a hot coffee, the kids playing down below between the cubby house and substantial stretch of flat lawns.
Below, gardens descend in tiers to a fire pit, light filters through the Japanese maples, while rhododendrons, camellias and magnolias bloom in bright bounties - proof the grounds were considered as carefully as the house itself.
Finished throughout to the highest standard, the home's finer details tell the story: Dowsing & Reynolds hardware imported from England, handmade architectural mouldings and a limestone wrapped exterior - the small touches that make all the difference.
Rising clear of the treeline, within Stirling's storybook hills setting - elevated, extended, and entirely one-of-a-kind.
