This impressive single level, four double bedroom home, with its superb proportions, calm colours and extensive decks and courtyards, pergolas, archways and oriental timber slatted screens, framed in banksia roses, flowering pandorea and fragrant jasmine fits well into its idyllic garden setting.
Surrounded by 1.3576 hectares of terraced lawns and landscaped gardens, brimming with magnificent shade and specimen trees, flowering shrubs, roses and perennials, the north-facing home enjoys all day sun and spectacular views across tree-studded lawns and pasture to the Waimea estuary and Rabbit Island, against a backdrop of the city hills and Richmond ranges. It is an ever-changing panorama, which can alter dramatically from a breathtaking sunrise to a serene seascape as the tide ebbs and flows. At night, the lights above the city and along the hills illuminate the skyline.
Architecturally designed by Ross Nevin and built in 2006, with care and attention to detail, the well constructed, 290 square metre home fits well into its coastal environment. Solidly built, brick veneer exterior walls, with a warm sand-toned plaster finish, combine superbly with pale ignite aluminium joinery and an iron-sand Coloursteel roof. The house is built with two separate wings, separated by an entrance hall and office. The living areas and master suite are in one wing and the other contains bedrooms, a bathroom, separate toilet, sewing room, laundry and the internal door to the garage and workshop.
