In need of a whole lot of love and attention, this fabulous farmhouse has been transformed from its cold and leaky state into a luxurious and masterfully crafted four-bedroom country estate. Set in rolling rural farmland and surrounded by a well-established garden, the focus of the extension and renovation of this sprawling 497sqm home was to capture the picturesque vistas from all angles. Despite its generous size, the house has a homely atmosphere enhanced by natural tones and materials that work in harmony with the rural landscape. The fully tiled main bathroom offers five-star relaxation with a luxuriously large freestanding slipper bath positioned to look out through the picture window to soothing views. In the main living area, floor-to-ceiling glazing frames the countryside scene, and a pitched ceiling adds volume to this warm and welcoming space. Sliding doors open out to sun-drenched decking that steps down to a large, lush lawn. The homeowners are delighted with their ugly duckling turned beautiful swan, a home that will no doubt provide a welcoming family environment for years to come.
