Rural estate of rare calibre where lifestyle reigns supreme

Encompassing five acres, this property is clearly one of the most captivating country retreats on the Northern Beaches; the residence is exquisite - the layout, dimension and quality of this home and its grounds are of rare calibre. Designed by Pettit + Sevitt in the late 60s, it's been brilliantly updated and expanded to embrace the way we live now; sited with a perfect north/south aspect, its low-slung profile and the clean geometry of the architecture merge entirely with sun-dappled gardens, vast stone terraces and saltwater pool – it's an extraordinary entertainer.

The free-flowing, single-level design reveals a refined collection of living zones including a second sunken lounge/library, an expansive family room joined by a versatile loft space, and either one or two home offices; each of the double bedrooms enjoys a private ensuite. Weekend visitors or extended family are easily accommodated with a lovely guest cottage just behind the main residence.

The private drive winds through the property and its bucolic gardens to a series of lush green paddocks, vintage hay shed, stabling for four horses and a dressage arena. Additional highlights include a large machinery shed with four bays, workshop shed, 80,000L storm water retention tank, dam, 20kw solar power and three gated entrances with full video security systems; this is an impeccably maintained acreage.

An extraordinary estate by every measure, with equine facilities to match, this is the ultimate in resort-style living in an exceptionally private setting – just moments from local shops, private and public schools plus a fabulous choice of iconic beaches.
