Beyond the secure embrace of the electric gated entry, a sense of profound stillness takes hold as the journey begins. The ornamental pear-lined driveway slowly and gracefully climbs the mountainside, a scenic ascent that gradually reveals a breathtaking vista of the rolling countryside. As you drive upward toward the house and beyond, the horizon expands with every turn, unveiling a majestic patchwork of emerald paddocks and distant peaks that seem to stretch on forever. This elevated approach ensures that by the time you reach the second gate securing the house paddock, the outside world has completely fallen away, replaced by a private sanctuary that feels as though it is touching the sky.
The residence is wrapped in a stunning, expansive veranda that sweeps from the front of the home all the way around to the entertaining area, designed to harmonise with the extraordinary surroundings. This wide, sheltered deck invites you to linger, offering a front row seat to the magical views where the valley floor meets the soft pastel hues of the sunset.
Upon entering the home, you are welcomed into a masterclass of understated luxury. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's haven, featuring a sleek induction cooktop, professional tower ovens, and a substantial walk-in pantry with seamless drawers and generous prep surfaces. This central hub flows effortlessly into the main living area, anchored by the gentle crackle of a minimalist wood-burning fireplace. Here, floor to ceiling glass walls are draped in ethereal sheer curtains that soften the natural light, allowing the landscape to filter through while maintaining an atmosphere of total composure.
To the right of the entry sits a sun-drenched formal sitting room, accessed through striking timber barn doors that create both architectural impact and flexibility of space. This refined retreat can be easily reimagined as a spacious fifth bedroom if desired. Privately positioned, the primary suite also enjoys its own set of statement barn doors, windows opening to the veranda and framing uninterrupted valley outlooks. Elegant drapery catches the breeze, enhancing the sense of calm. The suite is complemented by a sophisticated his and hers walk-in robe and an ensuite boasting a floating double vanity and slate grey hexagonal tiling.
Further down the main entryway, you will discover the dedicated study, a workspace defined by clarity and silence. In a thoughtful separation of space, a dedicated wing houses three additional bedrooms, serviced by a luxurious main bathroom with a deep soaking tub, walk-in shower and dual basins, maintaining a high-end resort feel for the entire family. Modern comfort is ensured throughout with evaporative cooling, while a spacious two-car garage and a laundry with external access provide effortless practicality.
Outdoors, the lifestyle offering extends well beyond the home itself. A beautifully positioned fire pit area creates the perfect setting for evenings under the stars, where conversation lingers long after sunset and the surrounding landscape becomes a dramatic natural backdrop. A charming chook shed adds to the estate's self-sufficient appeal, offering the simple pleasure of collecting fresh eggs each morning and embracing true country living.
The functional brilliance of the 55.5 acre estate is engineered for high-functioning agricultural use and total self-sufficiency. The land is flawlessly partitioned into 14 paddocks and three shimmering dams, all optimised for livestock and cattle management. The centrepiece of the infrastructure is the impressive 12.0m x 20.0m professional barn, a high clearance structure meticulously organised to include a 4.0m x 7.8m tack room, a 4.0m x 6.0m feed room and a 4.0m x 5.8m storage area. This complex also features a dedicated wash bay, a vast 4.0m x 20.0m covered area, 40 head (approx) capacity yards with loading ramp, force yard and Vet crush. Water security is paramount. The residence is supported by a 50,000 litre water tank, while an on-site bore pumps directly into a dedicated 30,000 litre tank at the barn.
Despite the absolute seclusion of this mountaintop retreat, the property remains remarkably connected to the modern world. You are mere moments from the charming Romsey township, where you can enjoy local cafés, medical facilities, schools and boutique shopping. For those who commute or travel, the location is perfectly positioned, just a 40-minute drive to Melbourne Airport and approximately 60 minutes from the heart of Melbourne CBD. It is rare to find a property that offers such profound high-country peace while remaining so conveniently close to the heartbeat of the city.
Opportunities of this calibre are few and far between, where elevated seclusion, refined living and exceptional rural capability converge in one unforgettable holding. This is a property that must be experienced to be truly understood. Available by private appointment only.
