Taking inspiration from the charming country villas of Provence, the current owners engaged renowned architect Pauline Hurren to create their vision, poised on 6900 usable square metres of a former orchard.
Built in 2003, the timeless character of this home will only be enhanced as it matures in its imposing setting.
Entering the home you are embraced by its' character and warmth. The crafted blend of natural timber, hewn stone, and rustic sand render is enhanced by the exquisite soft furnishings and abundant cabinetry.
The informal meals area with adjoining gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home. It is naturally ventilated by a wall of cafe doors that fully open to an intimate balcony that overlooks the lavender and rosemary terraced gardens, lawns and exotic trees beyond. Four double glazed, remote controlled ventilating skylights in the ceiling above ensure summer comfort and winter warmth.
Equipped with quality appliances, a mix of copious timber and granite bench tops, generous cupboards and a walk-in pantry, the kitchen is a chef's delight. The lacquered Ilve stove and separate vegetable sink will inspire the Masterchef within. Hand painted Monet inspired tiles were commissioned for the rises in the stairs leading to the formal dining room.
Adjoining the meals area is the cosy lounge with central open fireplace and cathedral ceilings, perfect for a relaxing glass of Adelaide Hills wine while enjoying views of the landscaped grounds from multiple picture windows.
An intimate formal dining room decorated with luxurious draped curtains and warm tones complimented by timber floors is perfect for a long evening with guests, and conveniently close to the impressive underground wine cellar with copious storage.
The romantic master suite with sunny garden views is accessed through its' own lounge/study retreat, enhanced by a stunning ensuite with his and her marble top vanities , full length bath and shower room. There is an ample walk-in robe.
