BEYOND BEAUTIFUL! - SOLD!




































Description
SECLUDED AND STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL, THIS PROPERTY WILL TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY.
This property is the jewel in the crown. The location is breathtaking and the home is to die for. Resting on the edge of a rocky cliff, overlooking a 90 degree bend in Websters creek, with daring verandahs and tall trees, this home is wild, with style. Over time, past owners have added their distinct touches to the original weatherboard home and the current owner has married them all with his design mastery. No expense has been spared in giving this charming old dame a new lease of life and securing her longevity with the finest of renovations, both structurally and cosmetically.
The house appears 'cottage-like' as you enter through lush tropical gardens onto the porch. But be prepared for a surprise when you enter into the spacious, resort-like living room with high ceilings, Travestine tiled walls, wide old timber floorboards and a spectacular view through tall timbers to the swimming hole and creek below. The living room has bi-fold glass doors that open out to the covered verandah. This space extends the living room to an indoor/outdoor dining area that has an electronic flyscreen enclosing the complete verandah and making summer evening dining a bug-free delight. From here, a further exposed deck cascades down to the edge of a steep precipice. Dress circle seats at nature's grand performance. A state-of-the-art open fireplace graces one corner of the living room and a large, central skylight ( with electronic opener and rain sensor) keeps the home light-filled even on the dullest of days.
The kitchen has the original cottage windows, and a camphor laurel breakfast bar. A winter sun bay extends from the kitchen and is glassed on 3 sides from floor to ceiling immersing you in the surrounding forest and bathing you in winter sun.
A loft perches high above the living area offering a quiet reading lounge. With funky custom built ladder, yet another quirky feature of this home.
The 3 bedrooms are all well sized and the master bedroom has the luxury of floor to ceiling windows on 3 sides and overlooks the creek. Great for star gazing at night and bird watching in the mornings. Another deck extends off this room to the east capturing the views of the creek from a different angle.
The bathroom has a new black pebbled shower recess, stairs to the back garden and separate flush toilet. A claw foot bath has been installed on the verandah, all plumbed in ready for hot baths under the stars.
A separate studio/shed offers plenty of scope to be used as an artist studio or could be renovated for extra accommodation .
The gardens are lush and colourful, with a mix of tropical and native plants and numerous established fruit trees. Raised garden beds are installed and access to creek water for gardens is supplied by the community. A short walking track takes you down to the creek flat where, in the shade of tall gums you can choose to sit in the rocky rapids or swim in the deep swimming hole in front of the house. It's another world!
