Overview
Set prominently on a spacious 1,821sqm hillside block in Swan View, this architecturally distinctive house, designed in 1977 by W. Groom and Lyn Matthews, seamlessly combines character, landscape, and breathtaking views. The timber, brick, and steel construction, along with split-level living and broad windows, embraces its elevated position, capturing stunning escarpment and National Park vistas.
The home’s multi-level design creates distinct yet connected living spaces, highlighted by a raised main living area featuring wraparound windows and a slow-combustion fireplace, flooding the space with natural light and framing the impressive outlook. Access to a wraparound veranda from north to south offers multiple spots for relaxation and enjoying the environment. A sunken second living area adds further versatility, complemented by a central home office overlooking the peaceful backyard.
The accommodation includes three bedrooms—all with generous built-in storage—with the main bedroom enjoying double built-in robes and tranquil greenery views. The main bathroom is well-appointed with a double vanity, combined shower and bath, and separate toilet, while a second shower and toilet are conveniently located in the laundry below the main level.
A 300kg residential lift connects the lower level with the main living areas, providing practical accessibility. Beneath the house lies substantial storage space, ideal for accumulated belongings or a future wine cellar project.
Beyond the home's architecture, an exceptional landscaped garden sanctuary has been extensively developed at a cost of approximately $150,000. Limestone retaining walls, stone pathways, intimate sitting areas, and vibrant jasmine and bougainvillea creepers blend with a secluded section of natural bushland. The focal point is a tranquil rock waterfall, enhancing the sensory experience and embodying the private retreat feel of the grounds.
The lower portion of the block remains open and usable, featuring an established grassed area with vehicle access from National Park Road, offering possibilities for additional parking, a future shed, or granny flat (subject to approvals). Although currently decommissioned, the concrete swimming pool presents an opportunity for revival and integration into the outdoor lifestyle.
This property remains uniquely individual and offers an unrivaled opportunity in a scenic, established location near the National Park, appealing to those seeking a home that harmonizes architecture, natural beauty, and lifestyle. Its irreplaceable setting and thoughtful enhancements have crafted a residence that extends beyond ordinary expectations.
