From its elevated location amid the rolling hills of Kangaloon, this 25-acre modern-style 3-bedroom residence boasts panoramic views and mid-century allure. Originally constructed around 1980, 'Redbank' has timeless style, from the inviting timber-lined ceilings to the floor-to-ceiling glass and clerestory windows: move in and enjoy or undertake an easy renovation project with the architectural features already taken care of.
This lovely home also offers a self-contained apartment, horse facilities and a pool.
Effortlessly stylish and light-filled, every room captures extraordinary 180-degree views from the Wingecarribee Reservoir on one side, across hills towards Bowral and Mt Gibraltar on the other side. Morning fog rolls over the ancient glacier valley below: the hills appear to emerge from an ocean of white.
The main bedroom offers a stylish ensuite and walk-in robe. There are two studies (one could be a nursery or fourth bedroom), open-plan kitchen/dining, very large living and sitting areas, two wood combustion fireplaces and endless views. A nature reserve and creek sit below the home – approximately one third of the acreage is restored bushland and has been further planted out with native cedar trees and other species. Brennings Creek and two dams provide the property with plenty of water, which is reticulated around the farm.
A sand dressage arena, stables, a tack room and covered horse-float parking make this a perfect horse property. A machinery shed and a large artist's studio/workshop are also features. Underneath the home is an expansive storage room with plumbing and electricity for an easy conversion.
