Last Listing description (June 2019)
When you walk through the door of this contemporary home you could be in a New York loft, yet you have just driven down a gum-studded driveway, past rows & rows of vines & ambled along an iconic farmhouse verandah to get there.
This joint is cool...
Sitting on approximately 35 acres, 12 of which are grapevines, this is more than just a cool house. A mix of vines, grazing country & bushland, It is a lifestyle property that has been meticulously set up, ready for you to add your swagger. So close to the city but tucked away from the hustle & bustle, this is the perfect getaway.
Newly renovated, it has a warm mix of form & function. The ceilings soar to 4m in parts, the concrete flooring has a modern epoxy finish & the combo of glass, timber & corrugated iron give it an edgy aesthetic. The feel is cozy & refined thanks to the latest European double glazing technology, a large wood combustion heater, reverse cycle air conditioning & high quality finishes throughout.
All of the bedrooms are a great size with their own sweeping views but it's the parents retreat that takes the cake. It's an enormous room with views overlooking a pristine nature reserve on the adjacent ridge. It has an adjoining study or space for a decent sized walk in robe.
This lovingly built slice of New York cool is enveloped in a classic Australian farmhouse verandah. No matter the weather, there is somewhere protected to sit in the sunshine or around a blazing fire watching the sun set over the vines & enjoying a glass of that Pinot.
The vines produce much sought after Chardonnay, Pinot noir and Pinot gris grapes bought by award winning wineries over the years.
