Privately nestled on Sydney's Northern doorstep, just 6 minutes past the Hawkesbury crossing and 10 minutes South of Kariong is this beautiful 45 acre property with good areas of relatively clear flat to sloping ground, multiple spring fed dams and a superbly laid out, designed and maintained large 4 bedroom home with connected additional accommodation, garaging and self-contained apartment. There are ample sheds for vehicles and equipment on the property. 2 Bores, one of which provides abundant clear drinking water.
The property is home to many species of native wildflowers, including Eriostemon Australasius and the rare Beronia Serrulata (Native Rose). Bold rock outcrops blend with wonderful water features to provide a quite stunning backdrop to the desirable acreage home.
The main home comprises 3 large bedrooms, large ensuite and main bathroom, with all bedrooms opening to a sandstone paved terrace under a grape vine laden pergola. The main bedroom opens to its own wide deck complete with spa bath and spectacular bush views.
There is a vast central entrance foyer dividing these rooms from the expansive open plan family living areas and kitchen, again all opening to the covered terrace and looking out over the superb lake bordered by high rock ledges and stunning native landscaping.
Substantial gardens and good lawns intermingle around the home to create varying moods in the wonderfully interesting outdoor living areas. A concrete swimming pool is located adjacent to the house and overlooks the main water feature.
From the impressive entry foyer there is a glassed-in passageway to the adjacent building which includes an oversized room that could be used as guest accommodation or office/library, complete with walk in robe with full bathroom. This room flows out to a beautifully lush English country garden! There are garages, workshop, storage areas and work benches, along with a wine cellar and fully equipped plant nursery room.
Above all of this is a well-appointed large, light and airy, completely serviced 1-bedroom unit with good views from the balcony. This unit enjoys a separate entrance to that of the main home.
