Built and held by the same family for 40 years, this home on the lower slopes of Mt Pleasant maximises privacy, gaining sanctuary status through its natural surroundings and intimate outlook over the water below.

Completely sheltered from view, the home settles naturally into the landscape of established trees, and the scale of the 965sqm section ensures the views can be experienced from multiple angles.

Showcasing the individuality of its era, the interiors carry a warmth and originality that future owners may evolve in their own time.

Everyday living unfolds through the open-plan kitchen and dining area, while the separate lounge captures the view through expansive picture windows that keep the Heathcote River in constant focus.

Five double bedrooms are spread across both levels and are supported by an upstairs landing that adapts effortlessly into a study, reading nook, or retreat for teens. A bathroom with a shower and bath, a separate toilet, and a dedicated laundry cover the essentials, while two heat pumps and a fire ensure comfort across the seasons.

Outdoors, the section is defined by towering trees and a level stretch of lawn, with a veggie garden and a tool shed that enhance the sense of self-sufficiency. A verandah and terrace create quiet places to sit among the trees and take in the view, reinforcing the property's unique feeling of remoteness.

Despite its retreat-like setting, Ferrymead's amenities are within view and just minutes away, with walking trails close to home, Sumner Beach an effortless coastal drive, and the inner city is reachable in around fifteen minutes.

With four decades of family ownership and a setting few can match, this hillside sanctuary is now ready to move into its next era.
