Nestled in a well-established area near the heart of town, this grand Greytown residence is incredibly private and peaceful. Established grounds and gardens provide a happy, homely feel.

Open-plan living at ground level flows to a large alfresco area where family and friends can enjoy fresh air and good company. Back inside, the fireplace with stunning stone surround makes a lovely, warming gathering point after the sun goes down. The overall feel is grand, yet relaxed – a true country retreat. Glass balustrades climb the staircase and border the upstairs walkway. Three bedrooms are positioned on the top floor. Back downstairs, the luxurious master bedroom gazes over the garden. Beautifully finished, the adjoining ensuite makes this space a special retreat for the homeowners. Two further bathrooms offer options on 310sqm. Top-notch tiling and a freestanding bath add a splash of luxury.

Thanks to an insulated Rockcote Integra flooring system, which absorbs sound between levels, the top floor is beautifully warm and quiet. Earthwool insulation in the walls and ceilings joins forces with an in-slab hydronic heating system downstairs, providing comfort that doesn’t cost the earth. Double- glazing frames the surrounding scenery throughout. Outside, a rainwater recycling system provides another sustainable feature. A large driveway spreads out in front of the double garage, offering plenty of parking for guests and residents. Stonework at the entry provides an inviting touch, which ties into the living-room fireplace. Low- maintenance exterior cladding allows the owners more time out to enjoy their lovely new home.
