This is not a home, it's a lifestyle! This property has to be seen to be believed. Built with sandstone that was hewn on site by a traditional Italian stonemason, this sprawling, architecturally designed family home is just stunning. Beautifully manicured gardens complement the sandstone inclusions which are featured throughout the property and these combine with the classic appeal of this magnificent residence to take your breath away. Set on 10,340 m2 of idyllic undulating landscape, guests will be captivated from the moment they drive through the intricate wrought iron gates and up the winding bitumen driveway. Every aspect of this impressive residence bespeaks a fastidious attention to detail and timeless precision. Offering something for every family member, the exemplary finishes combine with rustic inclusions to merge symbiotically with the bushland surroundings while the Forest Red Gum hardwood floors, 9 to 13 foot high ceilings, hand carved sandstone fireplace and ornate cornicing enhance the character and warmth of the home. A massive, award-winning Dana kitchen is gracefully framed by brushed timber cabinetry and features a walk in pantry, five burner gas stove, Baumatic oven and built in wine racks. Adjoining a distinctive hand carved sandstone bar, this culinary haven serves a selection of indoor entertaining areas including the informal dining space and TV/rumpus room, and all with wonderful views of the surrounding landscape. An additional formal lounge and separate media room/second study are set privately off the main living areas allowing for peace for the entire family. The main study sits adjacent to the main entrance and is replete with a filing room as well as a separate toilet and shower.

A solar heated (temperature controlled) salt-water swimming pool takes centre stage in a striking outdoor entertaining precinct. A separate cottage, which is set back from the main residence and was built to an Australian settler design, houses a multi-purpose room (currently utilised as a home gymnasium) offers endless possibilities of its own. As if that is not enough, a fire pit enhanced by picturesque sandstone block seating and a full length, synthetic cricket pitch with batting cage and cricket hut promote the enduring outdoor appeal of this property.
