The discerning buyer will also note the imported Italian marble benchtops, glossy Italian porcelain tiles, and the recently added ‘world’s softest’ Italian carpet… as seen on The Block. Even the hand-carved 18th Century bar has been specially imported from France.Onsite parking for multiple cars via a sweeping auto-gated driveway and with a fully tiled gas-heated pool and spa, this special property has outdoor areas for every occasion; including a covered rear patio, a terracotta-tiled BBQ pavilion and a stone-paved terrace framed within the lush landscape of mature trees. In a world of its own in these glorious and delightfully secluded gardens, this one-of-a-kind home is surprisingly close to it all – just two blocks to the shopping and primary school at the heart of the village, easy access to Haileybury and other bayside private schools and so accessible to the bayside beaches, city and Peninsula via the new link road.
