There are homes designed simply to be lived in, and then there are homes designed around a way of life. At 66 Raglan Street, East Tamworth, the distinction is immediately clear.

From the moment you arrive at this prestige residence, there is a sense that life here operates at a different pace.
At the heart of the residence is a private pool oasis, with the home wrapping around the water to create the atmosphere of a secluded resort. Paved terraces, established greenery and shaded verandahs frame the pool, while a dedicated pool hut with its own sauna and bathroom takes the experience well beyond the everyday backyard.
Look beyond the pool and the lifestyle continues. Elevated at the rear of the grounds is a full-size tennis court, creating another private recreational space while overlooking the home and gardens below.
Inside, the architecture has been designed to maintain a connection with these surroundings. Large windows, balconies and glass doors draw the outlook into the living spaces, with views extending across the pool, gardens and Tamworth cityscape.
The accommodation is thoughtfully divided into separate wings, providing privacy for family members and guests alike. The main suite occupies its own retreat, complete with a walk-in robe and generous ensuite, where a unique internal terrarium introduces natural light and greenery into the space.
Across the home, a second bedroom enjoys its own private ensuite, while two further bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom. A substantial office positioned near the foyer adds further flexibility and could readily become a fifth bedroom when required.
The updated kitchen brings a contemporary finish to the home's distinctive architecture. Crisp white cabinetry, stone benchtops, stainless-steel appliances and a generous island provide a practical centrepiece for everyday living and entertaining. Glass-front display cabinetry adds character, while the timber-lined cathedral ceiling and high-set windows create warmth, scale and an abundance of natural light.
From here, the home unfolds into a series of living spaces, each offering its own atmosphere.
The family and meals area connects easily with an outdoor balcony, ideal for capturing the morning sun or enjoying the evening breeze. A separate formal dining room creates an elegant setting for entertaining, while the sunken formal lounge opens to another balcony and features a dramatic picture window framing the city below.
Perhaps one of the home's most peaceful spaces is the sunroom adjoining the kitchen. With a rich timber ceiling, broad expanses of glass and uninterrupted views across the pool and established gardens, it feels removed from the outside world - a place for a morning coffee, an afternoon book or a quiet drink as the day draws to a close.
The lower-ground level reveals another dimension entirely.
A vast rumpus and games room, complete with its own bathroom and separate access, lends itself to a teenage retreat, guest accommodation, games room or private entertaining space. Extensive storage and workshop areas sit alongside an enormous garage capable of accommodating approximately four to six vehicles, creating exceptional scope for the car enthusiast, collector or hobbyist.
Dual driveway access adds to the practicality of a home that, despite its scale, has been carefully considered for everyday living. Reverse-cycle air conditioning, multiple indoor and outdoor living areas and beautifully maintained grounds complete a property designed to be enjoyed throughout every season.
Yet what makes 66 Raglan Street particularly memorable is not one individual feature. It is the way the pool, tennis court, gardens, city views and expansive interiors work together to create a lifestyle more reminiscent of a private retreat than a conventional family residence. High above East Tamworth, this is a home where weekends can be spent poolside, afternoons on the tennis court and evenings entertaining against the lights of the city below.
Partner Now Property is proud to present 66 Raglan Street, East Tamworth - an established local landmark offering the privacy, scale and recreational features of a private resort, all within one of Tamworth's most tightly held residential locations.
