From the beautiful tree lined entry, to the driveway winding through lush rolling paddocks, this 25ac (10.16ha) property is a testament to thoughtful design, construction and an empathetic approach to how a home should sit in its environment. Enjoying a commanding position atop a grassy knoll, the custom-designed timber and steel residence boasts wide front and rear verandahs that run the length of the home. Another defining feature are large windows throughout and glass French doors that not only blend the home seamlessly with its stunning landscape but afford simply breathtaking views across the Goldfields to the distant Pyrenees Range.
Step inside to an interior designed for stylish, yet relaxed living and entertainment. The crisp all-white palette combines beautifully with the honey-coloured hardwood flooring that flows throughout the expansive open-plan family zones. At the home's heart is the showstopper kitchen. Bespoke in design and finish, with sweeping stainless-steel benchtops over an abundance of high-gloss cabinetry, premium 900ml gas/electric appliances, dishwasher, WIP plus spacious breakfast bar, the kitchen is an entertainer's delight. If outdoor dining beckons, and in this sublime setting, it will, draw back the French doors and relax, dine and entertain on the covered alfresco deck overlooking glorious gardens and paddocks. Alternatively, take a short flight of steps from the front verandah to a lovely brick-paved outdoor entertainment patio set within tranquil gardens and lawns embraced by mature trees.
