The master suite on the lower level is a private sanctuary with an opulent marble ensuite, underfloor heating, a charming clawfoot bath, and a walk-through dressing room. Upstairs, three additional king-sized bedrooms are elegant and share another sumptuous marble bathroom, each space as charming and luxurious, complemented by a Juliet balcony with views over delightful gardens. An elegant powder room services the formal and informal living areas, while a versatile additional room downstairs is ideal for a guest retreat or gymnasium.
Throughout the residence, timeless décor is evident – from antique chandeliers, raw silk drapery, brushbox timber flooring to hand-crafted mouldings, and ornate fireplace with marble mantle. Beyond the interiors, the estate features a heated swimming pool, imported European fountain and wrought-iron gates, entertaining terraces, extensive storage, a wine cellar, and four-car garaging accessed via dual driveways.
