There’s peace and serenity here in this home hiding up in a little short court and looking out to the east and north-east over tree tops to where the sea meets the sky. In the day time you can see parts of the Gold Coast between the highest tree tops, while at night you see a line of glittering lights shining brightly through the open canopy. The home is located on the southern side of the court and has been well oriented to take full advantage of the northern winter sun shining onto the long wall and in onto the open deck as well as part of the covered verandah.

All the living and 2 double bedrooms plus main bathroom are on the living area while the top level is a gigantic parents’ retreat with a large walk-thru built-in and outfitted robe, ensuite bathroom and a large air conditioned sunroom / home office all glassed-in with the very best views in the house. The spacious lounge room boasts its own air conditioner, shining Hoop Pine timber floors and wide sliding glass doors opening out to the verandah. It also includes a childproofed slow combustion wood fire for those times when air conditioning just won’t set the right ambience. The kitchen and family living / dining area have been created with a special feel and dedicated hard work by the craftsman owner. Here you have Cypress Pine and tiled floors setting the tone through both. The individually air conditioned kitchen is much larger than you normally expect to find in a 3 bedroom home. It is also strikingly beautiful and superbly practical with extensive Caesar stone bench tops, pantry, long breakfast bar and all mod. cons. It also includes a superb set of wall cabinets featuring 4 matching handcrafted leadlight doors in traditional style. Modern, effective lighting has also been installed when the family area and kitchen underwent its magical makeover.

Speaking of leadlight, there is plenty of it in this home because the owner enjoys playing with glass as well as wood. The main front entry door is simply stunning, but that is not the only door in this house that includes his handiwork. Then there is the charming angled window in the ensuite bathroom featuring green tree frogs which you will see in the photo display above. No wonder that this man needs a vast workshop! And that is what you will find hidden underneath the house. It is really the most perfect space for anyone who runs a business in the building / crafts field and has its own toilet to save having to run upstairs. The tiled laundry is also down on this garden level as well as a large storeroom and the double garage.

The gardens are well established, having had about 15 years to get to this stage of development. At the front, the grounds are fully terraced and beautifully planted with a big paved driveway on the lower level leading to the garage and a separate pathway higher up the garden leading into the covered front porch and to the stunning front door with its King Parrot stained glass. The entire rear garden is very private with lots of flowering shrubs and border trees and has been fully fenced to keep both dogs and kids at home. It has lots of sunny open lawns and easily maintained beds to make life very easy for the gardener.

Yes! This is another of those dreamy, unique homes that are never available when lots of people are looking for “something different”, but now we suddenly have a little group of these enticing properties for sale. So add this to your list of excellent homes that do have a special Mountain ambience as well as many special features and take the time to see them now, before they get snapped up by the buyers who have been looking for years and never found exactly what they wanted.
