Arrive at the automated farm gate via a hedged-lined country lane, and follow the meandering treed driveway to a turning circle complete with a central classical cast iron fountain. Perched at the highest point of the property so that the views can never be obscured, the home's arched bronze and glass entry door opens to a limestone and Viola marble entry, which sets the scene for the sumptuous natural materials palette including oak flooring, pure wool carpets and organic cotton sheers. The single-level north-west facing, four-bedroom home has featured in leading publications including International Design Anthology, Habitus and The Local Project, and design standouts include high-end international lighting from We &Wo and Workstead, brass cupboard fittings by Henry Wilson, and a bespoke twine wall art installation that pays homage to the property's floral business accomplishments.
The main bedroom suite looks out to a shaded fountain garden, with the flower fields and water views beyond, and the five-star stone ensuite features an infrared sauna, walk-in shower, custom free-standing tub, brushed bronze tapware, underfloor heating, heated towel rails and a ToTo self-cleaning toilet.

Comprising a series of 'garden rooms' the exquisite Paul Bangay gardens ensure colour and beauty all year round. A wisteria-draped pergola flanks the travertine-tiled gas/solar heated pool and spa area, the perfect spot for sunsets and sundowners with views to the Melbourne city skyline in the company of a resident mob of 40 kangaroos. There is also 'The Barn' a large workshop/shed currently set up as a workspace for 'Villa Floretti' the award-winning Protea/Banksia nursery that currently covers seven acres, with scope for expansion. Classed as a primary producer, this property is land tax exempt.
