A historic brick home, green hills, a rolling tree-lined drive and the fulfilled family dream of country living.
Come home to casual elegance and fluidity between indoor and outdoor spaces when you discover your country escape in the Bathurst region. Enjoy leisurely days swimming in the dam, exploring paddock trails and building forts along the creek.

“This one is for families who love getting out of the city and doing everything the country offers,” Kristie says.

Located after the quaint bridge on a street corner in the rural stock and hobbyist town (with a population of some 248 people), the approx 6.5-hectare property includes an original heritage-style bungalow home shedding, established landscaped gardens, and stables.

A huge deciduous tree sits by the front gate and sets the scene for quintessential rural living as the drive unfolds to a stately home, where relevant restorations have taken it back to its former glory.

The six bedrooms, original features, skyrocketing ceilings, generously sized hallways, staircases and rooms make it quite different architecturally to anything else in town.

The H-shaped floor plan naturally resolves the issue of separating public and private spaces. The central hall is designed to accomplish a space for both gathering and circulation. Both levels of the hall physically link and unite the private wings, which themselves can be layered from public to private as well,

The rear courtyard is open and permeable, resulting from the length of each wing. The H-shape design and longer wings result in a more focused view and a stronger sense of the vast country escape.

The flow of the house creates a smooth connection between the interior and exterior areas and spatial relationships between rooms. Furthermore, the large floor plan is disguised by discrete vignettes that reference the surrounding views and well-thought-out needs for the sprawling family home.
