Key themes behind this expansive two-storey English-style home include country charm and traditional comfort. Built for a retired couple, high-spec features and materials ensure it is well equipped to serve modern life. While a huge effort was required to get this home off the ground through extensive earth and concrete works, it was well worth it. Set on just over two hectares of rolling pasture, the spacious home has an elegant, established air, with living areas connecting naturally to alfresco living.
The centrepiece of this 501 sqm home is a sweeping staircase that winds its way upstairs from the entry. Extensive use of posts and beams to the front door canopy and patio areas showcases the building team’s talent for carpentry; also illustrate through the substantial wardrobes in the home's five bedrooms. The three living areas feature recessed ceilings and panelling and are all generously proportioned while remaining warm and inviting. A freestanding bathtub in one of the four bathrooms allows the owners to soak up the good life and peaceful views of the surrounding countryside.
