The Northern yard leading from the terrace easily accommodates a marquee and there is ample space for children and pets to play. To the wine enthusiast the 850-bottle wine cellar will be a drawcard, with the original stone and brick walls a bottle will never be far away during dinner parties with friends.
The gardens are to the highest standard with every detail meticulously planned. From the bluestone central pond, the pool area with limestone walls and steps, corten steel edging, to the curated selection of plants, this is a magnificent garden to be enjoyed all year round.
