Embodying timeless elegance with its signature schist design, this picturesque 4.04-hectare estate delivers lavish lifestyle living within 10 minutes of suburban ease.

Basking in privacy, the top-floor master bedroom showcases its own sitting area, its own balcony above the portico, walk-in wardrobes, and fully tiled ensuite. Downstairs there are three double bedrooms (including a guest suite with a fully tiled ensuite), two offices, a family bathroom, and a meeting room. Prioritising comfort and function, the layout also includes heat pumps on both floors, zoned underfloor heating, laundry room, a three-car garage with internal access, and a security system for peace of mind.
The outdoor realm hosts a full-size asphalt tennis court, a vegetable bed alongside manicured lawns with pop-up irrigation and simplified landscaping for easy upkeep. The three-bay shed (with two enclosed bays), four paddocks, and stock pen with loading ramp offer ample space for pastoral pursuits, supported by wide shelter belts and a private well.
