Perched on a hill overlooking the Nepean catchment with distant views towards Sydney, ‘Mount Butler’ is striking in appearance on approach. A corridor of Plane trees line the driveway leading up to the home, creating an entrance to the enchanting courtyard garden that is an extension of the living areas and provides a micro climate for more exotic plants.
Sunlight plays through the home throughout the day, thanks to its northerly aspect. French doors open the living spaces to the breezes of the day and the homes’ full brick construction and soaring ceilings mean a constant temperature is maintained all year round.
The island bench is a contemporary styled kitchen is a great place for family and friends to congregate. The room incorporates informal dining with a lounge grouped around an open fireplace. Alternately, enjoy a more formal lounge adjacent with a second fireplace and a view of the courtyard as well as the farm.
On the second level there are three spacious bedrooms, the main with walk in robe and generous ensuite. The landing is used as a library space and there is a large sitting area connecting the rooms with bi-fold doors onto a Juliet balcony. A large fourth bedroom, ideal for guests, is situated downstairs.
Linked to the house via the courtyard is a huge garage with space for a handy workshop and farm equipment. The grounds contain rolling green lawns and well established trees that don’t obscure the panoramic view. The farm currently carries cattle, however most rural pursuits could be carried out on the 20.23 ha of rich basalt soil.
Perfect as a prestigious family home or enviable holiday retreat, ‘Mount Butler’ is sure to impress.
