Description
"THE OAKS" - A Collage of Charm & Contemporary Prestige - 2.7HA – Cellar - Floodlit N/S Tennis Court - Heated Pool - Paddock - Solar - Mains Water.
A charmed life, with a canopied arrival and forested backdrop, the idyllic family surrounds of this renovated 2.7-hectare estate are all part of "The Oaks" allure.
Bordering Arbury Park Road, strolling distance from The Deanery Reserve and Heysen Trails, its hidden charm also imbues warmth, style with a seamless architectural addition forming a dual level design that delicately dips its c1915 DNA into a contemporary 4 bedroom (plus library /5th bedroom) lifestyle.
Exposed stonework is a welcome feature in the extended footprint savouring a downstairs rumpus room for teen living, twin cellars, epic storage - both inside and beneath the home – leaving upstairs to pair the past with a contemporary kitchen, luxe family bathroom, and breathtaking terrace views over the pool, winter creek and forest.
Family and entertaining spaces abound, inside and out, joined by return verandahs and an enclosable upstairs alfresco; the synthetic tennis court is a weekend winner, the fully tiled pool a year-long gift with solar heating.
Amongst the bedrooms, the remastered parent's wing is drawn to the light of a luxe ensuite, dressing room, and a secret door to an adjoining office/library letting you slip in late without waking the kids.
And those namesake century-old Oak trees are the foreground umbrellas to a verdant landscape created for play and exploration in an elite Aldgate enclave where koalas and resident kangaroos are never far.
With an orchard, take those farm feels further and make it hand-feeding terrain as you roam chooks, sheep, or alpacas; it all paints a collage of charm and contemporary prestige in an esteemed country parcel.
