The main building also offers multiple living spaces, billiard room, drawing room, formal dining room and utility areas. Significantly refurbished, the property offers modern comforts that sit sympathetically alongside stunning character features including high stud ceilings with ornate detailing, stained glass windows and native timbers.
The grounds include a range of water features including a large inground swimming pool accessed through French doors from the kitchen/living room, rear sheltered courtyard, several historic protected trees and gardens originally designed by colonial landscape gardener Alfred Buxton.
A separate two bedroom, two bathroom cottage with private outdoor bath, offers supplementary accommodation options. There is also additional income potential from leasing the surrounding farmland and hosting high-end events.
