Featuring a luxuriously-appointed four-bedroom home, a separate two-bedroom granny flat and more than 2.7 acres (10,940sqm) of prime rural land, this property offers stylish contemporary living in peaceful country surrounds, with plenty of room for the largest of families. Built by Metricon in 2011, the commanding ranch-style homestead makes the perfect rural statement, with a grand elongated façade that is both timeless and traditional. The home's Denver 45 design is broken up into two distinct bedroom wings, separated by an expansive living zone in the middle. The master suite and adjoining parents' retreat or home office is a private and tranquil area that occupies one end of the house, set off by a vast, opulent ensuite and spacious walk-in dressing room and wardrobe area. The main bedroom area itself is generously-proportioned with plenty of space for a king-size bedroom setting, while a cut-out in one wall creates a sense of connection between this space and the adjoining sitting room or study. The ensuite is the epitome of luxury and style, with underfloor heating, oversized vanity with Caesarstone benchtop and twin inset basins, a large oval bath with stepped feature tiling and a large separate semi-frameless glass shower recess. The home's three remaining bedrooms are all located at the opposite end of the home, which can be shut off from the main living zone with a timber-framed translucent glass door. The bedrooms are all large enough to comfortably accommodate double or queen-sized beds, and include built-in wardrobes with mirrored doors. The bedrooms are grouped along a central hallway close to the main bathroom, which features the same luxurious style as the ensuite, while a well-appointed laundry, separate powder room and a spacious children's activity room are also located in this wing of the house. Plantation shutters, plush grey carpet with a thick underlay for added comfort, and remote-controlled ceiling fans with light fittings provide the finishing touches to all four bedrooms as well as the children's activity room, which offers a private chill-out zone for the younger members of the house with both television and Foxtel connections. The home is certainly not short on living areas and has plenty of space for connected family living and entertaining, with separate carpeted rumpus and media rooms at the front of the home on either side of the entry hall, as well as a vast open plan space at the rear that includes a kitchen, dining and family rooms seamlessly connected by sleek, white large format porcelain floor tiles. Glass sliding stacker doors open this area up even further for extended entertaining opportunities, creating an appealing indoor outdoor living experience that flows out to a grand covered alfresco area, while a slow combustion wood fire tucked away in one corner of the family room adds a cosy element to the bright and airy space. The kitchen is an entertainer's delight, with quality stainless steel appliances including a Baumatic stainless steel 900mm freestanding electric stove, and a spacious butler's pantry with ample shelf space. An eye-catching, modern style with glossy white cabinetry, black Caesarstone benchtops and a bold red glass splashback ensures the kitchen will always be the centre of attention, while a tinted servery-style window over the sink makes entertaining and alfresco dining a breeze. The home's long list of added extras provide the icing on the cake, with everything from 2.55m high ceilings and a commercial-sized zoned and ducted air conditioning system, to attic storage space, solar hot water and power systems, and soundproofing in some rooms taking this property to the next level. Homeowners looking for added space to accommodate the extended family or the chance to offer rustic Airbnb-style accommodation will also love this property, which has a Council-approved granny flat with a large covered timber wraparound deck, single carport, two good-sized bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, an open plan lounge and dining area, stylish full kitchen and a well-appointed bathroom and laundry space. Surrounded by similarly-sized small acreages and quiet rural landscapes, this tranquil lifestyle property offers plenty of space to pursue traditional country pursuits alongside an easily accessible location just 15 minutes west of Maitland's revitalised CBD, and on the doorstep of the world-class Hunter Valley vineyard region.
