Magnificent Bush Retreat with Wildlife Sanctuary on 10.73 Ha
Nestled in the heart of nature, this magnificent bush retreat spans an impressive 10.73 hectares* (26.5 acres), offering a sanctuary for native wildlife and an abundance of amazing birdlife.
With pristine views of the surrounding bushland and a beautifully elevated position, this property combines luxury, comfort, and sustainability to create an exceptional living experience.
As you make your way down the winding gravel road, past the tranquil dam, you'll arrive at a stunning elevated brick, double-storey residence, complete with verandahs that wrap around the home and beautifully crafted limestone retaining walls. These walls not only provide a stunning visual frame but also ensure the property remains secure and well-integrated into its natural environment. To see is to believe - this home has been finished to an exceptional standard, offering the perfect balance of privacy, luxury, and functionality.
Home Features
Spanning approximately 250m²* of living space, this expansive home is designed to provide both family comfort and sophisticated living.
It features four 'more-than' spacious bedrooms, with one downstairs and three upstairs, each with its own private balcony-offering sweeping views of the picturesque bushland. The master suite is particularly impressive, with ample room that rivals a luxury hotel room.
The home offers two generously sized bathrooms, each finished with quality fixtures and fittings. The downstairs bathroom boasts a classic cast-iron clawfoot bath, perfect for long, relaxing soaks. Upstairs, the bathroom features a spa bath-ideal for unwinding after a day of outdoor adventures.
Living & Entertainment Areas
Designed with family and entertainment in mind, the downstairs area features a huge open-plan living and dining space that seamlessly flows into the large kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with ample storage, gas cooking, and a double fridge recess, providing the ideal space for preparing meals and entertaining guests. A stunning sheoak stairwell leads to the upper floor's JARRAH FLOORING, adding to the home's luxurious feel.
The entire downstairs living area is designed for ease and comfort, with wheelchair accessibility built into the layout. Underfloor heating throughout the bottom floor, plus heating in the second upstairs bathroom, ensures a cosy and comfortable environment year-round, no matter the weather.
A standout feature of the home is the wood fireplace located in the living room. With a flu that extends up to the second storey via the loft area, this fireplace efficiently warms both the downstairs and upstairs, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere throughout the home.
Sustainability & Modern Comfort
This property has been built with sustainability in mind. The solar panels not only help reduce energy costs but are complemented by a generator for backup power, ensuring peace of mind during any power outage. The solar hot water system is boosted by an electric booster, ensuring you'll never run out of hot water. The home is also well-insulated with full insulation and sisalation, maintaining energy efficiency year-round.
The limestone retaining walls and wrap around verandahs not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the home but also add functionality, creating level areas for outdoor living and year-round entertaining, protection from the elements and a framework for gardens, and access paths. The thoughtful landscaping ensures that the home blends seamlessly with its surroundings while maintaining a high standard of design.
The property benefits from both rainwater and bore water, with a system that includes carbon/sand filters and a UV steriliser, ensuring clean, pure water for the entire home. The bore water is available to top up the rainwater supply if needed, making the property self-sufficient in its water needs.
External Features & Infrastructure
Outdoors, the property is just as impressive.
At the back of the home, you'll find a large powered workshop with a concreted floor, offering plenty of space for tools, machinery, or projects. The workshop includes four large lock-up bays at the front, plus a huge verandah storage area across the back with access to a fifth lock-up bay complete with a vehicle hoist-ideal for automotive enthusiasts, hobbyists, or those needing extra storage space.
Wildlife Sanctuary & Natural Beauty
Beyond the home itself, this property serves as a sanctuary for native animals and is a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers alike. The abundant wildlife and diverse birdlife create an immersive outdoor experience, making this the perfect retreat for those seeking a connection with nature.
