This exceptional detached eco residence represents a rare opportunity to acquire a thoughtfully designed, architecturally distinctive home in an enviable semi-rural position. Constructed with Siberian larch-clad elevations beneath a tiled roof, the house provides over 4,200 sq ft of beautifully arranged accommodation across four floors. Designed by the highly regarded, award-winning architects Re-Format, the house marries innovative, sustainable construction with refined contemporary living. A wealth of exposed structural timbers introduces warmth and texture, while expansive triple-glazed windows frame the surrounding landscape and allow natural light to permeate the interiors.

The property is approached via a private driveway providing ample parking and leading to a triple carport, discreetly positioned beneath the principal lawn. The lawn itself is accessible both externally and directly from the kitchen via wide sliding doors, creating a seamless connection between inside and out. To the eastern elevation, a generous terrace enjoys commanding views across the adjoining paddocks -- an idyllic setting for outdoor dining or morning coffee.
