A grand architectural landmark, this state-of-the-art French Provincial residence has been masterfully designed by Phillip Mannerheim. Spread across 105 squares (approx.) and making a breathtaking impression from the outset, intricate ironwork, travertine paving and a beautiful garden fountain precede the regal columns and towering double oak doors that welcome you inside.

A magnificent foyer with European Oak parquetry, panelled walls and a romantic sweeping staircase is but a taste of the luxury within, complemented by swathes of marble throughout.

A spectacular entertainer, the deep azure solar-heated pool, putting green and under-cover alfresco with outdoor kitchen are matched with multiple living zones ready for sublime relaxation.

Coffered ceilings crown the formal lounge room, set apart from vast open-plan dining and family room. Boasting a gas log fire, and double bi-folds to the alfresco, the centrepiece is the enormous Calacatta Marble island that defines the kitchen with a second kitchen, walk-in pantry and Miele appliances including two ovens, a steamer and coffee machine.

The basement is focused on fun and fitness, featuring a mirrored gym, tiered and fully fitted theatre, a wet bar and a 2000-bottle wine cellar, leading to an eight car garage.

The six king-sized bedrooms each enjoy an adjoining ensuite, while the master bedroom flaunts a tree-top balcony, dressing room and twin vanity ensuite with a free-standing tub.

Enjoying every luxury, there?s a lift, powder room, integrated speakers, double glazing, multi-zone central heating/air-conditioning, ducted vacuum and security.
