Subtly set back from the road in its sprawling garden surrounds is Canyon Cottage.
Cottage is, I must say, quite the understatement, as this home is quite frankly enormous.
Set on 1.2 Hectares at the end of Evans Lookout Road this home is an exemplary and elegant mountains home of generous proportions in every way.
Enter to find yourself in a moody almost baronial room that oozes style and elegance.
The proportions of this room are fantastic, with a high coffered ceiling and French doors opening to the huge north facing entertaining terrace. This room is a real show stopper, and is currently utilised as a home cinema and dining room. It even has a bar, not a flimsy wheel around trolley bar, a real proper grown up bar and with a sink too.
Imagine the gatherings that would happen here, and this is only the start, this is the first room, the theatre of the open fire roaring, the bar pumping, a long elegant lunch spilling onto the terrace in winter. What excellent fun!
Move through a corridor to find one of four Bedrooms and like all the rooms in this home, they have been decorated in exquisite style, the windows are massive in all rooms, flooding the home with light and bringing the outdoors in.
This room has its own access to the main bathroom which is also a stunning place to be. This home is so refreshing as it follows no trends, it is its own style, and this bathroom expresses this perfectly with a free standing bath, separate shower, a bidet and a full walk in dressing room with a fully lit Hollywood dressing table. All with quality fittings and tiles and done so well it feels like it has been there for a century.
Head back to the Baronial room to find a transitional room that is currently a reading room, this room opens to a long corridor that has another three bedrooms, one looks over the rear deck with another oversized window, the next is also generous in the extreme and has a mini version of the main bathroom and the third is a smaller …guest room…office? I think office would be good as it has direct access to the outside.
Moving past the bedrooms the corridor opens into a more casual living space, again extremely generous in proportion, this room has a cosy slow combustion wood stove and more oversized windows looking over the rear gardens.
Finally, the kitchen which is modest but has a top of the range free standing Smeg range and really, here is the place where you can make your mark, and there is an abundance of space.
Imagine the whole rear of this room as a sprawling kitchen, facing north and awash with light all winter long!
This is a quality home, proportions like this are hard to find, the infrastructure is top notch, there is a copper drenching system that covers the whole house fed by a large dam and pump, there is a 10KW Three Phase Solar System, there are TWO gas furnaces running the natural gas under floor heating system, a back to base alarm and there is even a cellar.
Yep! A cellar with a great big hinged trap door, now it really doesn't get much better than this so get in touch, book your viewing and come have a look, this home is not going to last long.
