Delivering a beautiful synergy between contemporary urban lifestyle and soothing country-like living, this ultra private family haven is at one with nature. Bordered by a reserve and stream, the tranquil environment is enhanced by the gentle trickling of stream water. Nestled within this generous and secluded 1,054sqm (more or less) city oasis is a modern three bedroom dwelling conceived by award-winning architectural designer Darryl Church. Spread over two levels and offering the option of a fourth bedroom, or separate family room, the home's design elements and materials work intuitively with the natural surroundings. Polished concrete aggregate floors and wooden beamed ceilings give a rich earthy feel and provide seamless compatibility with the exterior environment. Light-filled interiors favour a warm, all-embracing open concept layout that interacts with the outdoors. The peaceful sleep zone attracts bush and mountain views. As well as gas underfloor heating, the home has a woodburner and flue extending to the second level to bring radiant heat upstairs. There are two stylish bathrooms and double garaging connected to the main living area via an atrium-like walkway. The landscaping works with, rather than against, the environment and is cleverly sculpted to include alfresco entertaining spaces, play areas, raised vegetable beds and off-street parking. An open fire in the entertainment courtyard, which is set against a mountain backdrop, is the perfect venue for outdoor dining and socialising long into the evening. A water feature adds to the restful ambience. This hideaway property allows a family to co-exist with nature while reaping the benefits of city living.
