Set across an exceptional parcel of land and framed by a landscape that has been thoughtfully shaped over decades, this remarkable estate captures the enduring elegance and quiet grandeur of a bygone era where design was deliberate, materials were lasting, and homes were created to be both beautiful and lived in.
Commanding sweeping views to the iconic Mt Yarrahapinni, the residence sits proudly within its grounds being a fitting introduction to a home of such presence and refinement.
A Residence of Architectural Integrity
Designed by acclaimed architect Ann Gee and completed in 1994, the home reflects a rare commitment to proportion, craftsmanship, and natural materials. The classic timber weatherboard exterior and corrugated iron roof speak to traditional Australian homestead design, while the interior reveals a residence of remarkable scale and sophistication.
Wide verandas wrap the home on all sides, offering an ever-changing outlook across gardens, trees, and distant mountain ranges a seamless connection between indoors and out.
Inside, soaring ceilings ranging from 3.2 to 5 metres create a sense of volume and calm, while timber-panelled doors and windows, crafted with care, reinforce the home's timeless appeal.
Designed for Living, Entertaining and Retreat
At its heart, the home offers a series of beautifully proportioned living spaces, each with its own character and purpose.
The chef's kitchen is both functional and striking, complete with turret, butler's pantry, and separate food pantry designed for those who value both entertaining and everyday ease.
The family and dining rooms feature vaulted ceilings and open effortlessly through concertina doors to an expansive covered veranda, capturing north-easterly light and uninterrupted views.
A formal lounge, centred around an antique marble fireplace, provides a more intimate setting, while the conservatory with floor-to-ceiling glass invites natural light and garden views into the home year-round.
A Private Sanctuary Within
The master suite is a true retreat, offering both privacy and luxury with dual dressing rooms and his-and-hers bathrooms, finished with marble vanities and underfloor heating. Camphor laurel shelving, milled directly from the property, adds both character and natural practicality.
Additional rooms offer exceptional flexibility, including a library with floor-to-ceiling shelving and bay window, multiple study or bedroom options, and spaces suited to family living, guests, or creative pursuits.
A substantial lower level provides further opportunity ideal for a wine cellar, gym, or fully self-contained accommodation.
