Set against a backdrop of the Australian bush and designed to make the most of its serene setting, this picturesque hills property offers a perfect mix of unique character and timeless elegance. Built-in 1985, this generous 4 bedroom, brick and iron home has been designed to capture bush views from every window and is peacefully buffered from the view of its neighbours. A wrap-around verandah makes the most of picturesque setting; an approx. 3-acre block with semi-terraced gardens, a below-ground salt pool, and rambling sheds.
The home itself is filled with character and there’s little doubt this would’ve been a luxury build during its time. As you enter the home through double entry doors, the first thing to capture your eye is the timber-lined raked ceilings. The feature brick walls command a towering presence as they rise up from the slate floors to meet the high ceilings.
A formal lounge and dining room peels off to the right of the entrance hall. Wrapped in large windows, the space is bathed in natural light during the day. As you make your way down the hall, the home spills into an open plan living space. Here a country kitchen overlooks the family room and a casual meals that enjoys 180-degree views over the gardens from the bay windows that surround the space. A doorway to the back of the family room reveals a separate games room complete with a built-in bar and sliding door to the verandah and gardens outside.
