I don’t think Lane Realty has ever listed a property as pretty and practical as this unique mini estate set in a magical garden against a backdrop of superb trees. When you look at most homes you quickly see things that are lacking, things you will need to do, or alterations you will need to make to accommodate your particular lifestyle. When you look at this property you will see that all those things are there, even the things you don’t see like insulation. If you are an artisan, there is a ready made studio or that perfect little cottage for grand parents or the young adults living at home to save money. If you have teenagers the garret above the garage is the perfect place for them to play and study rather than be under your feet. If you have a couple of cars and a boat and love to be the man in the workshop, the 3 bay garage plus carport gives you all the space you need.

And the whole property is astoundingly beautiful! The picture perfect home is ideally designed for a mature couple with all living and entertaining space on the ground level as well as the master suite with its luxury ensuite bathroom and delightful spa bath. The w.c. is not in the ensuite but can be accessed directly from the ensuite as well as via the laundry. O.K. let’s call it a 2-way toilet! Whatever you like to call it, visitors don’t have to go through the main bedroom to reach it and it is easy to get there from the garden too. The upstairs attic suite is simply a dreamy guest bedroom with its own lovely ensuite bathroom. Add in the relaxing verandahs on all sides and the wonderful outdoor entertaining area and you have a perfect home in a magical setting.

Then add in “Jacarandah Cottage”, that delightful matching 1 bedroom studio with its cute little semi outdoor kitchen area - well it can be fully enclosed or opened up - and the cottage offers the space to suit a wonderful variety of uses from a separate home office to a consulting suite or for visiting family who you don’t want under your feet. The owners actually lived in the cottage while they were building the home.

Any family with teenagers or a student will love the beautifully finished garret above the garage. Visiting grandchildren would ask nothing more than to be able to stay there. It has that special feel that makes them feel all grown up and free as well as lovely garden views through the windows. Of course, it could also be Dad’s retreat when he wants to hide away!

But all the practicality and beauty are not limited to the buildings. The concrete driveway opens out to a large concrete forecourt in front of the house and garage with room for reversing and visitor parking too. Then there are the gardens, picture perfect and seemingly just right to frame and enhance the 3 matching buildings. Yet, the gardens have clearly been planned with both privacy and easy care in mind. Indeed this is one perfectly stunning, well planned and different property. We love it and we think you will too.
