Overview

This hand-built bespoke residence presents a unique opportunity for those who value exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive architectural design. Constructed predominantly from enormous hardwood timbers, the home showcases spacious interiors with mixed hardwood floors on the upper level complemented by slate flooring downstairs. The walls, fashioned with 'Sawment' materials, enhance both the visual appeal and insulation efficiency, ensuring comfort across seasons.

Drawing inspiration from Tudor architectural principles, the home transcends typical Tudor replicas to offer a one-of-a-kind forest sanctuary. Nestled harmoniously within mature rainforest gardens, it rises majestically amid the sought-after Jarlanbah Permaculture Gardens Community, situated on a generous 2174 square meter allotment that perfectly complements the property's grandeur.

Accommodation includes three well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms, alongside a separate laundry area and an airy gallery loft that provides ample space and storage. Characterized by its high pitched roof featuring raked ceilings and exposed beams, the upper level enjoys abundant natural light streaming through large dormer windows, ideal for window seating, a quiet reading nook, or simply enjoying scenic mountain views surrounded by leafy trees. A highlight of the design is the beautiful handcrafted staircase which serves as both a structural and artistic focal point, complemented by wide stairwells and loft walls suitable for displaying artwork.

The lower level emphasizes spacious open plan living, housing an expansive kitchen, dining room, and multiple living zones that accommodate both formal and informal gatherings. Its central area soars to the highest roof point, generating an impressive sense of volume and sophistication. Sliding glass doors along the outer walls provide seamless access to the wraparound verandahs and foster an indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Visible timber framework throughout these walls offers a gallery-like backdrop to showcase personal art collections. The living area is further enhanced by a central wood-burning stove that imparts warmth and comfort, along with a custom metal chandelier that adds a refined decorative touch.

Powered by mains electricity and equipped with solar hot water, the property combines modern amenities with sustainable features. The landscaped grounds include meandering pathways, forest-style gardens, and a charming dam or pond that enrich the setting. For gardening enthusiasts, a double garage offers versatile space for vehicles and a workspace.

This residence epitomizes a harmonious blend of craftsmanship, architectural distinction, and natural beauty, providing a peaceful yet grand living environment.
