Set amongst an enchanting (and carefully created) mix of natives, exotics and fruit trees, this extended two-storey Hills cottage on 3.7 acres (approx.) will whisk you away from your troubles before you even step inside.
The sense of escape rushes over from the moment you set foot on the sweeping driveway that gradually unveils a 1920-built stone cottage with a second storey extension that grants the king and queen their own retreat atop the light-filled mix of living areas and three spacious bedrooms below.
The ground floor - with its polished timber floors, robust architraves, picture windows and country style kitchen - has retained its original charm, and was born to bring the family together.
And together, you can bask in open-plan living framed in north-facing views, french doors and access to an expansive timber decked patio/verandah - the place to sit and inhale the meandering paths, garden terraces, spring-fed dam, established gardens and birdlife below.
In winter, the combustion fire will warm hearts and home when only lazy nights at home will do, while the sunroom provides a private place to relax, all year round.
And with its master suite, lounge room, bathroom, study/office and private terrace balcony...the second level is your home away from home, an escape within an escape, and the cherry atop a Hills home that has it all.
