With a pristine rainforest and natural bush setting, this sprawling contemporary residence, with resort-style facilities, crowns a totally private estate of 25 acres. The home has sweeping views and an abundance of natural light, with an eco-friendly and energy-efficient design, providing summer shade and winter sun, natural cross-ventilation, passive heating and cooling and optimal natural lighting.
The open plan living and dining areas have cathedral ceilings, picture windows and bi-fold doors, allowing these rooms to flow to the outdoor entertaining terraces and courtyards, adorned with wisteria, bougainvillea and grape arbours, and climbing roses. The lounge room, also with high ceilings and picture windows, is warm and welcoming, with beautifully crafted recessed wall cabinetry and a Jetmaster fireplace.
The kitchen enjoys scenic views, framed by a magnificent Chinese elm tree. Equipped with European appliances, it is complemented with a 4.8m recycled Redgum timber breakfast bar and a huge butler's pantry.
Complete with a spectacular ensuite, with an indoor/outdoor garden and balcony, and a separate dressing room, the master suite is private and offers an elevated outlook over the property through picture windows.
Custom-made American Cherry cabinetry, shelving and built-in desks make the study/library the perfect place for working from home. The large well-lit room provides ample space for multiple people and has a leafy garden outlook.
A separate wing accommodates guests and children, and includes large bedrooms and bathrooms opening out to private terraces and courtyards. A huge rumpus room, with extensive wall cabinetry and recessed storage, guarantees that there is space to store everything out of sight, including the television and table tennis table. French and sliding doors open out to courtyards with wisteria and grape arbours, pond, water feature and fire-pit.
There is also a large wine cellar, storage room, workshop, and extensive garaging. The home has under-floor heating, a C-Bus smart electrical control system, back-to-base alarm, 3-phase power and external sensor lighting.
The property offers an enviable resort lifestyle, with a 15m solar-heated swimming pool, a flood-lit tennis court, extensive landscaped and irrigated gardens and orchard, and horse paddocks with stables. In addition, there is a rammed earth machinery shed, 3 dams, tranquil rainforest creeks and a separate 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom caretaker's cottage.
The location is extremely convenient for quick access to the M1 motorway and trainline, and to shops and schools, both locally and in Sydney.
