The post war design movement was based around a less is more approach. These principles created a brave new world in which design would play a major role in shaping a positive future. For the first time, houses were designed around a better environmental footprint, bringing to the forefront north facing aspects, expansive window panes and the use of natural products as features.
This home is one of the best examples of this architectural era. Whilst some would say 'retro' is 'in' I don't think this home was ever 'out'. A home built on clean lines with fabulous feature walls of stone and timber. Expansive windows allow you to feel like there is no division from inside to outside. This theme flows throughout the home which incorporates three bedrooms, two bathrooms and two living areas. One of the first homes to have under the main roof garaging which in the hills is so important. The large open plan living area features a gorgeous exposed stone feature wall, open fireplace and recently upgraded kitchen. With a view from every angle of every room, this home is edgy. The master suite is exceptional in size and benefits from a fabulous dressing room and a beautiful ensuite bathroom. Bedrooms two and three benefit from ample storage as well as a view. Downstairs the gentlemen can sit around the fire smoking cigars or perhaps dabble in the many wines which can be stored in the cellar. Under the house rooms include a drying room with the boiler for the hydronic heating, as well plenty of storage areas.
Outside will see you idolising the colour spectacle. Simply superb terracing allows you to adore the Azaleas, Camellias, Rhododendrons, giant Redwoods, Maples and other beautiful deciduous trees. The superbly maintained 5.5 acre park like gardens are therapeutic for your soul. Venture down the property and admire the natural waterfall. Not only does the property benefit from English gardens but also a taste of native vegetation.
Water is provided by mains water, a bore and rain water. Heating to every room from the hydronic heating which provides such beautiful heat. For those who love a fire take your pick of open or combustion.
Breathtaking, beautiful, inspiring and private. 'Redwood' is an ideal property for the those escaping the plains in search of an estate.
