Set on a beautifully landscaped 7,289sqm (more or less) section, it offers a remarkable blend of privacy, space and versatility, ideal for extended families, joint ownership, or those seeking an income-generating lifestyle. At the heart of the property is a striking lodge-style main home, where craftsmanship and comfort shine. The expansive open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area is a showpiece, featuring vaulted ceilings with feature timber trusses and a cosy fireplace - creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. A mezzanine living area offers flexibility as a home office, library, or media retreat, while seamless indoor-outdoor flow connects to a large entertainer’s deck overlooking the river - the perfect setting for alfresco dining or peaceful reflection. An internal walkway links the living area to the master suite, which includes a generous bedroom, ensuite, and dressing room. Light-filled and private, the master suite opens onto its own balcony, offering a serene retreat with elevated river views. On the opposite end of the home, another internal walkway leads to a wing containing two ensuite rooms with outdoor seating areas, ideal for guests or visiting family.
