Just a few minutes' drive from Kinloch Village, this extraordinary estate offers a private and peaceful retreat unlike anything else.

Nestled on approximately 2.0763 hectares of beautifully landscaped grounds, the property celebrates the natural contours of its setting - a spacious plateau completely surrounded by a wooded gully, providing total seclusion and timeless charm.

On returning from years in the United Kingdom, our vendors envisioned a home that would echo the style and grace of a grand English estate, while embracing the comfort and practicality of modern living. The result is a truly unique 319sqm (more or less) residence that embodies craftsmanship, character and class at every turn.

A long, tree lined driveway sets the scene for arrival, winding toward established park like grounds where birdsong fills the air and tranquillity reigns. Inside, a grand light filled foyer opens onto recycled Rimu flooring that flows effortlessly through to open plan living. With a soaring 3 metre stud and English inspired kitchen featuring handmade timber benchtops, double butler's sinks, polished concrete island with built in wine racks and sliding baskets and exquisite lighting, this is a home that delights both the entertainer and the family host. French doors extend to a sheltered deck overlooking the lawn tennis court - the perfect backdrop for summer gatherings. Beyond, wide hallways lead to an elegant formal lounge with built in cabinetry and free standing fire and separate dining hall, offering multiple spaces for both entertaining and relaxation.

Three exceptionally spacious bedrooms plus an office each continue the high stud elegance, with the master suite featuring a walk through wardrobe, generous ensuite and private spa pool deck. The main bathroom is a statement in luxury, complete with timber floors and raised bath with garden views. Every detail has been carefully considered - from handcrafted skirtings and English wall panelling to solid feature doors and double glazed sash windows and aluminium joinery throughout.

The home's clever H-shaped layout includes nine sets of French doors opening to either the manicured grounds or a central courtyard with open fire, ensuring a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
