Set against the spectacular backdrop of Kangaroo Valley, 'The Lake House' is a luxurious estate that captures the elegance of a European villa with the tranquillity of a rural Australian retreat.
The home underwent a major renovation and extension in 2020, which included a second pavilion accessed via a light-filled breezeway, featuring an impressive master suite and terrace, and an expansive music and theatre room with bi-fold doors. The renovated main pavilion features a formal lounge with a slow-combustion fireplace, a versatile dining room that doubles as a home office, and a spacious kitchen with meals area, walk-in pantry, and a charming servery window framed by grapes. Upstairs, three bedrooms feature Juliet balconies with panoramic escarpment views, and a second master suite offers walk-in robe and ensuite bathroom.
Outdoors, the magic only continues. Lavender-scented patios, Boston ivy-clad terraces, and grape vine-adorned pergolas create an array of alfresco settings, with tranquil ponds and water features adding to the serenity. At the heart of the property lies a magnificent 3-acre lake, complete with a jetty and featuring 3 islands. One of the islands, known as the 'Wedding Island', was the site of the previous owners' ceremony - a romantic reminder of the estate's unique character and charm. 'The Lake House' would also make a fantastic horse property for those looking for good paddocks with an endless water source.
