Tucked away down a quiet country lane is an extraordinary statement in contemporary design. A meandering tree-lined driveway captures your attention until you behold the hidden elevated setting of this special property. No neighbours in sight because Blackwood is a concessional holding surrounded by larger farms. All you see from almost every room are rolling green hills, rich grazing pastures and forests with impressive stands of timber. Every requirement has been considered and cleverly implemented into both dwellings that represent Blackwood. Charm, quality, space, light, eco-efficiency, practicality, privacy, tranquillity and security. That’s before we even mention the breathtaking views.
The main home features the most inviting open-plan living design comprising of a superb kitchen, lounge, dining and sun-room. All opening to the entertainer’s garden, alfresco dining area and courtyard leading to the Villa. Winter comfort is assured with hydronic heating and a mesmerising travertine fireplace. A large laundry and a powder room complete the ground level. A wide staircase leads to a fabulous rumpus room with lots of storage and its own veranda. The master bedroom is delightful, also with a veranda and a gorgeous ensuite – you won’t want to get out of the big bath tub taking advantage of the views! The second and third bedrooms are substantial with a generous main bathroom close by. Underground, and with its own driveway, is the 6 car garage with recessed workshop area and large storeroom.
The villa, with the same contemporary style and quality as the main home, continues with the open-plan theme. Large kitchen, dining, lounge and of course a veranda maximising the views. A slow combustion fire makes it a cosy den in no time. Again the two bedrooms are substantial with the main bathroom practically positioned between. Downstairs is an enormous rumpus room leading to the double garage. Essentially it’s a smaller version of the cleverly designed main house.
The beautiful grounds contain a balanced variety of European and native plantings blending well with the surrounding countryside. Spacious, flat lawns for entertaining/child’s play and lovely terraced lawns for peaceful strolls. There are a couple of small paddocks above the forested creek with yabbies, a favourite in the summer. There’s a little bit of something for everybody at Blackwood, very clever indeed.
