Magnificent views through this distinctly Australian landscape can be enjoyed from a fluid sequence of indoor and outdoor living zones.
Forming a dramatic sculptural centrepiece, a custom steel staircase punches through three levels to connect the residence's living spaces
A streamlined chef's grade island kitchen forms the hub of the home and features polished concrete floors, an adjoining utilities room, and level rear access to the garaging
Five bedrooms are all positioned on the upper level, with three that open out to a verandah overlooking the views, as well as a separate suite for guests
Occupying a private wing, the master retreat features a skylit dressing room and Boffi-appointed ensuite, its freestanding bath perfectly positioned to soak up the tranquil river and garden vistas
The lower level incorporates a home office/library with dramatic double height ceilings, while an upper level family area opens to a sunny verandah
The home's many other features include a guest powder and cloakroom, solid American Oak floors, custom joinery, an enormous cellar, generous attic storage, and secure parking for four cars
A pool pavilion, championship tennis court, trampoline platform, guesthouse and direct river access set the scene for relaxed living and entertaining
The heated pool is wrapped in raw-finished decking, and features a covered spa and dining pergola with a unique studio retreat hidden below
