Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the generous open-plan living area easily accommodates intimate gatherings or larger celebrations. At its heart is the island bench — a chef’s dream workspace — which naturally becomes the hub of the home. The indoor living flows effortlessly to the outdoor entertaining area, creating a private oasis surrounded by lush greenery.
Set on over an acre of land, the property offers space in every sense — room to breathe, to retreat, and to gather. Even with a large family, everyone enjoys their own sense of privacy, while the interior remains tranquil and quiet, no matter how full the house becomes.

As soon as you arrive, this home offers something rare — a profound sense of space, calm, and connection to its surroundings. Stepping into the living room, the home opens wide and expansive, drawing your eye straight to the sky and the view beyond. Indoors and outdoors blend seamlessly, as though there is no barrier between you and the landscape, allowing the environment to become part of everyday living.
Perched above the treetops, this home redefines hills living. Rather than feeling enclosed by forest, you feel elevated within it — immersed in nature yet comfortably removed. Native wildlife is a daily presence: magpies, lyrebirds, king parrots, wallabies, the occasional wombat, and even powerful owls. Overhead, wedge-tailed eagles regularly put on an aerial display, reminding you just how special this setting truly is.
Despite the openness, the home remains a true haven. Naturally cool in summer, warm in winter, and remarkably peaceful once the windows are closed, it offers serenity in all seasons — even during a storm. One of life’s simple pleasures here is watching clouds and rain roll across the suburbs below from the picture window. On clear days, the view stretches all the way to the bay; by night, it transforms into a glittering sea of lights — a constant source of inspiration and awe.
This is more than a home — it’s a place of stillness, inspiration, and connection. Rare hills retreat where nature, space, and comfort exist in perfect balance.
