A premier address on the mount; a substantial and beautifully appointed family home; set on over 1.7 acres of private lawns and established European garden: this exceptional property is a must-see for anyone looking for a sophisticated country estate 45 minutes from Melbourne.

This modern architecturally designed 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom home has huge plate glass windows which fill the house with light and stunning pool and garden views.

The bedrooms are all generously sized (4 king size and one queen size), each with an ensuite, most with spacious walk-in robes, and the master bedroom has a retreat with spectacular garden views.

The living spaces are also generously sized and plentiful. The main living room has a wood-burning fireplace and access to a rear deck. The central living area off the kitchen and dining area also has rear deck access, and there is a third living room downstairs opening out to the grassed pool area. There is also a library, an additional seating area with garden and pool access, powder room, and a dedicated cinema room perfect for serious movie buffs.

The kitchen also has everything you would want: porcelain benchtops, a free-standing 900m Smeg oven, V-Zug convection and steam oven duo, two dishwashers, three sinks, butler’s pantry, two-pac cabinetry with soft close doors and drawers and internal lighting. There is even an appliance cupboard with a roller door for the microwave, toaster and kettle.

Careful attention has also been given to other areas of the house. The mudroom, with its bespoke two-pac cabinetry, has direct access to the laundry and garage. The laundry has direct access to the garden, and the large garage has floor to ceiling storage cupboards and electric roller door access.

Outside, in beautifully landscaped gardens, there is a 13 metre in-ground pool. Fully-tiled pool with solar and electric heating, it is surrounded by lawn and hedges and is the perfect spot to enjoy long summer days. The pool house and gym has a kitchenette, bathroom and internal seating area. Off the pool house is a garden shed.

As you would expect from a house of this calibre, it is finished with European oak flooring, pure wool carpets, natural fibre sisal, hydronic heating throughout and additional reverse cycle air conditioning in the top floor bedrooms.

This private oasis is still within walking distance to the Mount Macedon pub, Trading Post café, and the local primary school. It is also a just a 10 minute drive to the Calder Freeway which will have you at the airport within 30 minutes and Melbourne CBD in under an hour.
