The skilfully built and beautifully designed, north facing home on approximately 41 acres, has successfully blended the feel of French countryside comforts, with European elegance, and comprises the essentials: a welcoming and graceful arched hallway, 3 metre ceilings throughout with decorative cornices and skirtings, elegant light fittings and chandeliers, furniture-like kitchen cabinetry with ornate handles and the blend of soft and bold colours form the mainstay of this French inspired home.

The scale of this home provides the perfect backdrop for family living offering three spacious bedrooms; the luxurious master suite with updated bathroom featuring dual vanity, generous shower, heated towel rail and feature tile, is adjacent to a large walk-in robe. The further two bedrooms feature built in robes and generous proportions and share a central spa like bathroom with deep bath, while a further work from home office / study provides options for a 4th bedroom.

This grand residence provides expansive formal and informal entertaining spaces, built around a central kitchen. The formal living room features a large bay window and wood combustion fire framed by a gorgeous European style mantle, while the kitchen has bull-nose Calcutta marble benchtops and breakfast bar, Ilve 5 burner gas cooker and convection oven adjacent to a family meals area with French door access to a full-length verandah. The informal lounge room also with wood burning combustion fire for cosy evenings leads to the impressive alfresco walled garden and courtyard.

Beyond is the most impressive, fenced kitchen garden with beautiful artisan stone garden beds surrounding a fire pit and the gateway to the rose garden with up to 20 different varieties providing a riot of colourful blooms.

No expense has been spared to embrace a most expansive Pool Club House with all the essentials for outdoor exercise and relaxation. From the luxurious 12 metre, solar heated pool with a rejuvenating spa, an extensive outdoor kitchen and adjacent alfresco dining area and a full-size competition tennis court, with synthetic surface and the appropriate enclosed fencing.

The Club House provides a toilet, vanity and change area, and the outdoor shower is perfect for freshening up. There is even a half-court basketball ring for those keen to shoot a few hoops! Imagine balmy summer evenings with family and friends; making memories that will last a lifetime and all perfectly positioned to take in views of the dam and reservoir.

For the keen investor, this property includes a second, original dwelling which offers lots of options. Intergenerational living a steppingstone for young adult children or retirement haven for ageing parents, short term accommodation allowing a passive income or ultimate weekend getaway for extended family and friends. Built circa 1970, this groovy cottage has three bedrooms, an original open plan kitchen / dining / living with large Regency wood burning fire and Rinnai gas heater, separate bathroom, and laundry, together with a charming stone patio. With a separate entrance, fully fenced for pets and children, and set amongst established gardens, this is the property bonus everybody dreams of.
