On entering this 2.5-acre coastal sanctuary you are struck by the beauty and simplicity of the contemporary architect designed home and surrounding landscape. The property is expansive yet secluded, with a lush, tropical feel, local native vegetation and creeks that flow into the pristine Cochrane lagoon.

The house and gardens provide versatile spaces for living, sleeping, working and playing. The buildings surround a large grassed courtyard and full-sized pool, offering a private enclosed space for relaxing and entertaining, with weekend croquet being very popular.
The studio pavilion is large enough for visits from family and friends, and includes a spacious living area, full size bathroom and laundry. The double garage also serves as a rumpus room or work area, or space for extra guests.

The main pavilion opens into a light filled space, with an expansive kitchen, dining and lounge area – wonderful for entertainment and everyday family living. Sliding doors peel back out of sight providing a sense of being outdoors while in, offering breathtaking views of bush and rainforest surrounds. The concrete floor is cool in summer and in winter the underfloor heating and passive solar design ensure an ambient temperature.

On either side of the living area are the extensive bedroom wings, each with ensuite and walk-through robes, study nook plus a day bed alcove overlooking the courtyard. Both bedrooms and bathrooms have direct access to garden areas, providing a very open feel.
The pavilions are connected by solid timber pergolas milled from trees on the property – Blue Gum, White Mahogany and Blackbutt.

Stroll through the rainforest, down the bush track, past Bangalow and Cabbage palms, then across the creek and you will come to a sizable parcel of land approx. 1 acre suitable for future development.

The rainforest and creek offer extensive native fruiting trees for the local fauna to enjoy. Over 64 different bird species have been identified on the property.
The organic permaculture garden has many fruit bearing trees, everything from citrus to kiwi fruit, figs, apples, and loquats. The garden produces a bounty of vegetables, if you are so inclined.

Wake up to nothing but the sounds of the surrounding bushland. Yet this private and secluded retreat is just a kilometre from Macmasters Beach and Cochrane Lagoon; a 7-minute drive through the Bouddi National Park to the iconic Killcare beach, and the cafes, restaurants and shops of beautiful Hardy’s Bay; and only 70 minutes via the new North Connex motor way to Sydney centre.
This truly is a unique and inspiring residence that offers tranquillity and privacy, while still being accessible to city delights.
