Welcome to 'Girragan', escape to your very own resort-style sanctuary, privately tucked behind a gated entry in one of the Hills' most sought after addresses. Backing onto a tranquil bushland setting, the luxury acreage – with dual occupancy - delivers an enviable lifestyle with every modern convenience. A wonderfully serene destination, it is the best of both worlds, located just 15-minute drive to Castle Hill and moments to Glenorie Village.
Offering space and comfort, the main residence opens up to a contemporary interior with a multi-zoned layout. Adjoining the family and meals area is a showstopping newly renovated kitchen. Designed by award winning designer Paul Johns, its features include the most beautiful Neolith Classtone backsplash, stone countertops and huge island with ribbed curved panelling. There is also a purpose-built bar with mirrored splashback, extensive cellar storage and wine fridge.
The property has been beautifully landscaped with a myriad of outdoor entertaining options designed to bring people together. This includes a sandstone amphitheatre with firepit, built-in bench seating and a Jacaranda tree wrapped in fairy lights. A large alfresco terrace frames the rear of the home and includes a built-in kitchen. It overlooks the sun-drenched lagoon style swimming pool and sunken cedar spa.
The property gently cascades to a bushland reserve which runs down to O'Hara Creek. Rolling lawns, mature trees and a small orchard add to its charm. There is also a championship sized flood-lit tennis court and clubhouse. The latter is currently used as a gym and includes a self-contained studio with kitchenette and bathroom.
A total of six stylish bedrooms – two with ensuites – are located in the main residence. The master retreat also includes a walk-in wardrobe and its own balcony with acreage views. In addition, there is a self-contained two bedroom, which is ideal as in-law accommodation or could even be used to generate additional income. Garaging for three vehicles plus additional off-street parking completes this dream property.
