20 Forest Avenue, Hepburn Springs, VIC 3461 Divine Private Sanctuary, set in Paul Bangay Designed Brilliance

An idyllic country retreat set within an acre of the most exquisitely crafted Paul Bangay designed gardens, this utterly unique, architectural masterpiece comprises 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a seamless connection to its natural surrounds. Culminating in decadent and sun-drenched, poolside living, the home has been curated to satisfy the most discerning of alfresco entertainers.

Dramatically transformed and extended from its origins as a single bedroom mudbrick cottage, the home retains so much of its original character whilst promising a blissful lifestyle of wineries, farmers? markets, fine dining and awe-inspiring landscapes, all from within the brilliantly zoned gardens that proudly display the unmistakable hallmarks of Australia?s preeminent landscape designer.

Masterfully framing vistas of the sweeping lavender and artfully created zones of Paul Bangay?s multilayered design, the home?s open-plan heart is a celebration of light and proportion set under a spectacular vaulted ceiling. Here, a floating suspended fireplace delivers wonderful winter ambiance, whilst the kitchen is a visually striking showpiece crafted for gourmet food preparation, where stone working surfaces complemented by a heritage-styled black Falcon oven and a full height Liebherr wine refrigerator.

Effortlessly, the open-plan transitions to a vast and paved alfresco living area that basks in the northern sun and is heated for year-round enjoyment with family and friends. As it overlooks an inspired infinity pool that manages to evoke the sense of being set among the treetops, the home also features a large cubby-styled birdhouse, all of which underlines it as the backdrop to a lifestyle of memorable interaction with nature.

The accommodation itself is unashamedly luxurious with generously scaled bedrooms each appointed with substantial built-in robe storage and either ensuite or semi-ensuite access to one of the home?s fully-tiled luxe bathrooms. Further, a completely independent single bedroom guest retreat offers wonderful flexibility, gently tucked-away within the gardens without sacrificing even a hint of the main home?s remarkable sense of privacy.

Perfectly situated where lifestyle and luxury intersect, the home is a divine indulgence, securely gated and secretly sheltered from the streetscape and yet within walking distance of the Hepburn Springs Spa and merely moments from the joy of Daylesford?s township.
