It is fair to say that I do not get to write about "Islands" very often in the Hills, but this home has its own Island - but more on that later. What this residence also has is a magnificent location close to the Village and Schools, 6 large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and some of the most stunning entertaining areas you will see in a home in the area. This home will suit the largest family or the most active of entertainers!
This two-story cedar home has a unique footprint - with so much storage underneath the home you will not want for car parking or workshop and storage space ever again. Up the stairs from your under-croft parking is the home, and what a home it is! As you can see from the photos, this is one for the grand entertainers. The open, decked patio area is where you will spend a vast amount of your time and for that reason, there are shaded blinds, a bar and even a bathtub where you can soak away the stress while you enjoy a local drop. You can have 20 to 30 guests here without feeling cramped - dinner parties will never be the same again.
Inside, the use of natural materials is ever-present and creates a lovely hills ambience. The owners have incorporated extensive amounts of timber and massive glass windows looking out over the views. The layout is simply perfect - it creates good zoning for formal living, casual relaxation and space for guests to come and stay while integrating comfortably with everyday family life.
There is a large kitchen overlooking a casual family room, a separate formal lounge/dining area that has the glass windows as a feature and all the bedrooms are spacious with so much storage everywhere you look. The master suite is oversized and there is plenty of robe space as well as a separate ensuite for the parents.
For comfort, there is a log look gas heater and reverse cycle air conditioning throughout and modern features such as solar panels and hot water are also installed.
Now back to the island! In winter when the water starts to flow, it flows through here, and it is then you can lead your guests across the bridge to your own island to enjoy the BBQ and drink the wine - it is an experience you will not find anywhere else. While the water is not flowing now, we have tons of photos that we can show you and it is largely what makes this home 100% unique.
The large native trees and palms have all been fitted with unique and extensive outdoor feature lighting - night-time here just simply must be experienced so all viewings will try to give you both daytime and evening experiences and for that reason we would love to show you by appointment.
The land here is open and natural - with a winter creek running through the property creating the Island. This neighbourhood is not about fences and boundaries - here everyone has created a community feel that is left largely open for everyone to enjoy and enjoy you will with stunning feature garden lighting, granite outcrops, water courses, native planting and the general Darlington Vibe of it all.
This is Darlington, personified. Unique, like no other home around it, an island and just a little bit quirky in all the right places - this could be your next home. To see it, simply enquire or call and we will book you into a timeslot that works best for you and that allows you to enjoy everything there is to offer.
