As the gate closes silently behind you, and you make your way up the drive through the natural bush that acts as a gentle buffer between this 17-acre property and the rest of humanity, you begin to realise you are entering a unique and peaceful world, unlike any you've experienced before.

From the gated entrance to Woodlands, the smooth drive takes you past the snug stone and timber guest cottages, perfect and immaculate, standing ready for grandma, your friends, or even paying guests should you choose to resurrect this property's lucrative bed and breakfast past. Look left, and through the trees you can glimpse the lake, where the natural spring burbles over its stone-lined bed, and native waterbirds poke placidly about in the shallows.

Finally, the sweep of driveway curves upwards and you see the executive residence for the first time. Stone steps take you to the deck, and the striking entrance to this unique, architect-designed home. As you step through the front door, you'll notice the entire front aspect of the home is full height glass, allowing a cascade of natural light to wash across the living spaces. As you explore the house, you'll find this idea - a home that embraces and reflects its surrounding environment - throughout each of the impeccable, elegant rooms.

You'll see earthy tones of stone, timber, terracotta and slate bringing a natural warmth to every room, and broad windows welcome in the peaceful hues of the earth, trees and sky.

The kitchen is the heart of any home, and this spacious specimen is truly a home cook's dream. The stainless-steel appliances are of the finest quality, including an Ilve stove, a Miele dishwasher and an in-counter Gaggenau food steamer, and the bench space is endless. A large double sink sits beneath two massive picture windows, giving you a fresh and peaceful view out over the trees and yard. You will love cooking in this beautiful space.

For the executive, this property provides the ability to focus in peace and privacy whilst still having easy access to the outside world, with the airport only 25 minutes and the city only 40 minutes away. The home office is a spacious and serene zone where two people can work in comfort, and should you choose to bring the team to you, the pool villa is the perfect conference space with sleek catering and bathroom facilities.

But if you'd prefer to keep the property as your safe sanctuary away from the world, this pool area will be your private spa retreat. You'll spend hours floating in the infinity pool, or resting in the shade and contemplating the treetop view and the distant lake. The villa's complete kitchen and bathroom facilities means entertaining family and friends becomes a true pleasure.

If your guests decide to stay, you have two snug cottages to accommodate them. Each of the two delightful stone chalets has a beautiful wood-panelled vaulted ceiling, separate sitting area, claw-foot bathtubs and cosy pot-bellied stoves. These guest cottages were once used as a boutique bed and breakfast business, turning over $100,000 in a year and requiring only a cleaner. Woodlands was also popular for corporate events and weddings, and there is significant potential to again run the property as a luxury hospitality operation.

Fenced paddocks, stables and a flood-lit dressage arena provide the horse enthusiast with everything they need for complete happiness.
