With its distinct character and presence, a picture-perfect position on a 12-acre allotment only 7 mins from Wodonga's CBD, your tomorrows will be both refined and relaxed with this simply amazing and pristinely maintained and presented home. Showcasing a HIA award-winning design by Bernard Jovaras of JWP Architects, with the manifest aim of maximizing the 360degree views with impeccable build quality and finishes throughout, it brims with delights such as double-glazed floor-to-ceiling windows in the living zones with spectacular outlooks of the surrounding bushland and over to Albury and Wodonga, bright and airy raised ceilings, square-set corners, and a central hallway with raised windows and a one-of-a-kind curved timber wall crafted from Tasmanian Ash. The living zones run the entire length of the home and comprise a welcoming reception area with an adjoined elevated deck from where's there's more views – imagine taking your morning coffee or evening wines here - unique built-in open shelving to create separation from the large dining space, and an inviting family area, featuring a brilliant 2-way wood burner. The highlight here is the stunning kitchen, with clever cabinetry, WIP, laminated red gum counter for the magnificent breakfast bar, high-end appliances, and a stainless steel splash back and counters for the cooktops.

All 4 bedrooms are generously proportioned, with 2 of the bedrooms presenting built-in desks. Befittingly, the master bedroom is extraordinary, with more double-glazed windows, its own parent's retreat that leads outside, a study and sewing alcove, a large WIR, and a luxurious ensuite offering a tranquil view of the gardens and surrounding hills. There's also a studio / office with its own toilet, powder room and cupboards, a genuinely family-sized bathroom with another powder room, huge laundry, great storage, and for year-round comfort, ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling to the living zones and master with a complementary evaporative cooling system as well.

Those tremendous views make for a very tranquil backdrop to the outdoor entertaining area which is accessible from both the family area and the master bedroom, plus there's low maintenance gardens with underground sprinkler systems fed by the large dam. Want more – how about an awesome 12x9m shed with concrete floors, 3m doorways and 3-phase power, over-sized double carport and a 9.9kw solar power system? The house block itself is well-fenced and offers a cattle grid to add to the one at the entrance to the property.
