Idyllically positioned beneath the flight path of the much-loved red-tailed black cockatoos, this 4.5-acre hideaway in Connellan offers a rare opportunity to embrace a peaceful rural lifestyle with a touch of spectacle. Just a short drive off Colonel Rose Drive, a quiet bush track leads you to this remarkable property, once a thriving grape farm and now home to a contemporary masterpiece.Architecturally designed and only seven years old, the residence has been crafted for the environment and designed with timeless appeal. With soaring ceilings, walls of glass and a brilliantly conceived floor plan, this home is as practical as it is beautiful. Two distinct wings are connected by a central living and dining zone, creating both separation and flow for family living.Throughout, large, grey-toned ceramic tiles offer easy-care elegance, complemented by tasteful window furnishings where needed. The open-plan living and dining area enjoys incredible natural light, highlighted by north-facing windows that welcome in the winter sun and a feature-coloured window decal that scatters light playfully across the room. Comfort is assured with a slow combustion heater and rhino ceiling fans.The kitchen is a true showstopper – designed for entertaining and functionality alike. It boasts a party-sized breakfast bar, stone benchtops, a black ‘Falcon’ double oven gas cooker, a walk-in butler’s pantry, and sweeping views through oversized windows that frame the surrounding landscape.Sliding glass doors open from every vantage point to a generous outdoor entertaining area, where the distant blue hues of the MacDonnell Ranges provide a breathtaking backdrop.The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive. The main suite is a private retreat with a light-filled aspect, walk-in robe, and a luxury ensuite featuring a freestanding soaker tub. Bedrooms two and three share access to a second bathroom and an adjoining walk-in robe, while the fourth bedroom – complete with built-in storage and outdoor access – makes an ideal home office or guest room.Beyond the home, the grounds have been lovingly nurtured with hundreds of native trees and shrubs, ensuring natural beauty and privacy for years to come.

A clearly custom rural home with a pavilion/winged plan that responds to broad outback views — notable for its clerestory glazing, stone fireplace wall and strong indoor–outdoor connection. It reads as a well‑executed, practical custom house rather than an architect‑icon — good proportions and detailing but not historically significant or stylistically groundbreaking.
