This remarkable limestone residence is a handcrafted sanctuary where enduring materials, thoughtful design and country charm come together in the most beautiful way. Positioned on an expansive 1,549sqm parcel overlooking the tranquil Bremer River, this property embraces its peaceful surrounds while being part of Callington's warm and welcoming township. Here, community spirit is genuine, the pace is relaxed, and each day begins with picturesque views and birdsong.
Constructed from handcrafted limestone and complemented with handmade timber lintels, the home radiates authenticity and craftsmanship from the very first glance. A lavender-lined pathway invites you toward the entrance, drawing you into the heart of the home - a light-filled open-plan dining and kitchen space designed for connection and comfort. The kitchen is both striking and superbly functional, featuring expansive hardwood benchtops including a substantial island bench, double oven, two sinks and an impressive walk-in pantry, all illuminated by contemporary pendant lighting. Large timber-framed, double-glazed windows frame the established gardens like living artwork, while louvre windows encourage gentle cross-breezes and natural airflow. Underfloor heating in the open-plan zone and family bathroom ensures comfort through the cooler months.
A step down reveals a living space anchored by polished concrete floors and a feature Nectre slow-combustion fireplace with integrated oven - the kind of detail that makes winter evenings something to look forward to. This level also hosts two generous sized, robed bedrooms serviced by a stunning modern bathroom complete with floor-to-ceiling tiling, dual sink vanity, a luxurious deep bath and indulgent rain shower.
Upstairs, a second living area with built-in office space and reverse cycle air conditioning creates flexibility for work and relaxation. The master suite is a true retreat, offering a walk-in robe / dressing area and private ensuite, while an additional robed bedroom - ideal as a nursery or private office - completes the upper level.
Throughout the home, earthy textures and natural tones create warmth and cohesion. Exposed limestone walls, rich hardwood timbers and a striking relationship of curved and straight timber-lined ceilings give the interiors depth and character rarely found in contemporary builds.
Outdoors, the grounds have been thoughtfully planned to balance productivity and leisure. Meandering pathways wind around fruit trees, vegetable gardens and lawn areas framed in fragrant lavender borders. There is a generous chicken coop and run, a greenhouse, garden sheds and practical wood storage, allowing for a self-sufficient lifestyle. Entertaining is effortless beneath the covered outdoor kitchen and BBQ area with exposed aggregate flooring, perfectly complemented by an adjacent firepit for evenings under the stars. The sunlit timber deck with shade sail offers yet another inviting setting to gather, while children will delight in the shaded play area complete with sandpit and treehouse platform. An outdoor shower adds a thoughtful touch after long days spent gardening or exploring.
Adding even greater appeal, a separate limestone and timber studio built to mirror the main residence in both materials and craftsmanship, offers endless possibilities as a creative retreat or workshop.
Practicality has been equally considered, with double undercover car accommodation plus additional space for a caravan or boat, and an impressive 12kW solar system with 2 inverters and a 10kW battery delivers substantial cost savings and sustainable living.
Wonderfully unique and undeniably warm, this is a home where craftsmanship meets comfort, where country-style living feels both refined and relaxed, and where every space - inside and out - has been created for making memories.
