When the owner of this spectacular, contemporary residence came to refurbish this property, it was decided to create the kind of open, tropical home that the mid north coast lifestyle and weather welcomes ….. in keeping with the almost year round sun and capturing the soft breezes off the river and ocean.
The elegant and modern brick rendered residence, Ardrin, sits comfortably on a large, elevated block of land overlooking the expansive views of the McLeay River to the north, with ocean views to the east and across to the mountain range in the west. Its “address” is one of the most prestigious in the South West Rocks area. It is private, yet only 500 metres to the river and not much further to beautiful Horseshoe Bay.
The residence and easy-to-maintain gardens are entered through security gates, past the gate house. Inside and through the reception is a 2 room office and reception area, a self-contained “apartment” with king size bedroom, a large shower wet area and laundry and a spacious music room and lounge – and there is direct access to the swimming pool.
Upstairs is the magnificently proportioned entertaining and dining space and living room, together with a state-of-the-art Miele kitchen and walk-in pantry – and even the cook has fantastic views across to the river and mountains in the distance. The 5 burner gas stove top and electric oven. The dishwasher and microwave oven. The walk-in pantry. The neutral granite benches and breakfast bar. And more …..
This spacious living zone opens out through room-width bi-fold doors to a 3 metre wide timber deck overlooking the sparkling in ground swimming pool, the stone tile courtyard and its Balinese style hut. So relaxing! The use of hardwood timbers for all window surrounds, doors, stairways, floors and wide decks only add to the quality and elegant ambience throughout. Enter the bedrooms on this floor.
There are 2 bedrooms with their own en suite shower bathrooms and toilets. And then there is the carpeted, air conditioned master bedroom ….. and it is just that, a masterpiece; the bed suspended from the ceiling, the walk-around wardrobe and dressing room, the private timber deck overlooking the river and a spa en suite and separate shower and toilet through plantation shutters. The entire residence has excellent natural light and great air flow.
There is plenty of linen and appliance storage that are cleverly placed, along the way. Some other features are the security system, the powder coated steel and timber stairways, a further separate toilet, a gas “wood” fireplace, a small wine cellar, cedar blinds and a music system throughout all living areas. Then there’s the 2 vehicle security, high ceilinged garages with lots of storage and a workshop.
This spectacularly presented property will be hard to resist ….. the start of a new, romantic and exciting adventure!
The owner will consider exchange for subdivisable land or a smaller property, or some vendor finance.
