Every now and then a property comes to the market offering something special, and this beautiful estate has both the understated elegance and the touches of luxury that set it apart.

Ideally situated on 6255sqm (approximately one and half easy-care acres) dotted with fruit trees and with a picturesque outlook, it’s the finishing touches which will really surprise: with signature features like a fresh water ionised pool, substantial under-floor heating and a separate cottage on the grounds.

With wide wrap-around verandahs on four sides and tactile sand-coloured brickwork more resemblant of a Colonial-style Sydney property, the home has the character and class of a bygone era with all the modern conveniences.

Sit on the front verandah with a cup of tea viewing the majestic mature trees highlighted by a pristine waterhole attracting an abundance of natural wildlife and it will be hard to tear yourself away. The outlook beyond this to the ranges is equally impressive, peaceful and relaxing.

Built by local company Brian Hopwood Homes and the winner of an HIA Custom Build Award in 2005, the main residence is divided into three unique zones: the formal lounge with its high ceilings and current library area, leading through to the master wing; the formal dining zone and the more casual family areas off the impressive kitchen.

All three north facing sun-drenched bedrooms in the main house adjoin the front verandah, offering a peaceful outlook – the master with spacious walk-through robe and a sizeable ensuite with a unique timber vanity.

The other two bedrooms in the main house flow off a hall to the right of the entry, with plentiful linen storage, a separate WC/powder room and a big main bathroom with oval spa bath ideal for soaking in.

With panelled timber cupboards, dark granite benchtops and one of the widest island benches (complete with study zone) we’ve ever seen, the kitchen will delight the fussiest gourmand. And along with the deep drawers for your pots and pans, there’s a walk-in pantry as well. Not to mention an impressive new freestanding cooker to match the scale of this important family hub.

The adjoining open plan lounge, with its reverse cycle air conditioning and underfloor heating allows for a comfortable temperature throughout the year, and white French doors lead to a separate study on one side and a long tiled sunroom on the other.
The sunroom provides outside access to two sides of the property and is adjacent to the laundry with another shower and WC, it could offer the perfect work-from-home scenario for a multitude of businesses. It’s also ideal for post-swim showers, with the pool sure to be a hit most of the year.

This side of the property has a lovely outlook over the rectangular in-ground pool with horizon edge, with the added bonus of being fresh water – luxury indeed.

Offering privacy from the neighbours on either side, the pool has been perfectly sited to flow out from the wrap-around verandah, and it’s obscured from view by the house on one side and the freestanding cottage on the other.

Speaking of the cottage, this is another perfect location for a home-based business, or perhaps as the quarters for an extended family member or visiting family or guests, it features a separate bathroom along with one very big open plan room and a wall with cabinetry and a sink. Metered separately and set adjacent to the double carport away from the house, the cottage is at the end of the sealed driveway, which offers an open parking bay for another two vehicles.

Among a long list of features the property also has: a remote controlled front gate, a gas bayonet point for heating, bore water, a tool shed, solar hot water and an approx. 6kw solar power system. Fruit trees include a mango, mandarin, grapefruit, lime and orange and the property has an in-ground tank of approximately 90,000 litres.

Established gardens offer splashes of colour, with a Magnolia and Camellia among the flowering plants but you won’t be spending too long on the upkeep as it’s largely a low maintenance garden and lawns. Ideal for pets, kids or just to have room to breathe, this is the ideal property for those seeking tranquillity without compromising convenience.
