Built in the 1980s from the plans of a creative owner, alongside an architect, this unique masterpiece is locally referred to as "The Lady of the Lake." Today, the property has been refurbished to create a grand yet contemporary atmosphere inside the lavish 480m² home. Every room is generous yet connected, and the layout is ideal for both entertaining and fun family life.

The sophisticated kitchen features a Calacatta Stone benchtop and island, with an adjacent walk-in pantry that keeps your kitchen organized, allowing space for socializing in this impressive room. After dining in the formal dining room, with the lake as a backdrop, you can retreat to multiple lounges or step outside on warmer nights to the poolside.

As you walk through this bespoke home, you'll be captivated by the breathtaking views. The marble-tiled entrance and interior stairway are simply magnificent, showcasing a chandelier and boasting Kauri doors and banisters. Upstairs, there are four generously sized bedrooms. The master bedroom, complete with an ensuite, is a stunning sanctuary. Downstairs, the separate fifth bedroom with an adjoining bathroom enjoys the morning sun and overlooks the pool.

In the cooler months, you'll relish the warmth of this home, occasionally opening the windows to let out the warm air as the thermal bore provides a never-ending supply of heat! The middle-level concrete floor has hot water running through it, and radiators throughout the home ensure everyone stays toasty in every corner. Even the garage is kept warm, when the exterior temperature drops to 2 degrees the garage is a cozy 18 degrees! During the winter months, the swimming pool and spa pool can be heated to an inviting temperature.
