GLORIOUS HILLS RETREAT
You won't need to go on holiday when you call this incredible property home.
It's set on a massive 4800sqm block with extensive gardens and plenty of opportunities for relaxation and recreation.
Explore the rainforest via the elevated walkway which culminates in a gazebo where, or sit and listen to the water babbling in the charmingly named Whistlepipe Creek, which runs year round.
Adding to the resort-style delights is a solar-heated pool so you can swim in any season, and it's enclosed in a Florida room, making it wonderfully low maintenance and sheltered.
Then enjoy a cocktail or espresso in one of the many outdoor areas, including a magnificent alfresco area and second gazebo near the pool. Or you can bask in the sunshine on the lawn - bocce anyone? Alternatively enjoy drinks and nibbles on the upstairs balcony overlooking the grounds.
It's a fabulous property for entertaining too, you can share all these pleasures with friends and family - and there's no shortage of parking for guests.
The home also has a beautiful holiday feel. It has been painstakingly renovated and restored by the owners, who invested $600,000 in the extensive upgrade.
You drive up to the entry, a bit like arriving for valet parking at a hotel and enter to a light-filled, spacious living room with gleaming white floor tiles, state-of-the art slow-combustion heater and a stunning art deco ceiling feature. Double doors open to the courtyard and alfresco area with vine-draped pergola - imagine dinner or lunch in the dapple shade.
The living area links to a dining/kitchen area also with white floor tiles and double doors to the deck with built-in bench seating, for more outdoor entertaining options. The well-equipped kitchen has abundant timber cabinetry, timber benchtops, glass topped touch electric cooktop, stainless-steel oven, moveable island bench, walk-in pantry, fridge recess and adjacent scullery/laundry.
A library with built-in shelving adds another living zone - make it a study, parents' retreat or keep it as a private space where you can relax with a good book.
