This residence is thoughtfully crafted by award-winning architect Cymon Allfrey to follow the natural contours of its surroundings, offering breathtaking views over the Ashley river, foothills, and snow capped mountains beyond.
From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a remarkable hallway that serves as a true architectural highlight. This space seamlessly follows the contour of the land, setting the tone for the unique design and elegance found throughout the home.

This kitchen is not just functional but is designed for those who love to entertain and enjoy the finer things in life. The lighting throughout the home is meticulously planned, enhancing each room's ambiance no matter the time of day or season.

A double-sided gas fireplace serves as the centrepiece, providing cosy warmth to both living spaces, while underfloor heating ensures comfort throughout the cooler months.
