Erriba TAS 7310

For that one remarkable property, Erriba Rise truly stands apart from the rest. Meticulously constructed over a six-year period this bespoke, executive residence sits overlooking the Forth Valley and a distant Lake Cethana.
Accessed through a mature woodland, along a 350-metre sealed drive, the home nestles discreetly in an open terraced lawn setting. Enjoying an elevated northerly and easterly aspect, the view is tireless, with the vast expanse encompassing the Eastern Ranges beyond Launceston to Mt. Ossa and the northern edge of the Walls of Jerusalem to the South. Mts. Roland, Claude, and Van Dyke take central prominence. All of this observed through the home's numerous floor-to-ceiling windows and doors.
The house is of a modern style split level flat roof construction using vertical hardwood cladding with double-glazed cedar windows throughout and is designed on passive solar principles, with the lower level sitting on a hydronically heated polished concrete slab cut into the hillside. Complimenting the heating system is a legendary Cheminees Philippe fireplace, providing further comfort and ambience in the open plan living area. Comprising three bedrooms with ensuites, two with built-ins, and the Master with a walk-in robe, the quality of fixtures and fittings are top end. The third bedroom on an upper level is effectively a self-contained small apartment with kitchenette. A six-gas burner/four-oven electric Aga takes centre stage in the modern kitchen and is complimented by a 12x3 metre walk-in larder and Butler's kitchen with its own stove and extensive storage shelving. There is also a separate study with a floor to ceiling library. Remote-controlled double garaging is conveniently internal and generous in size.
