DESCRIPTION

Perched high on the property with sea views, including the Venus Bay coastline in the background and overlooking lush lawns, native gardens and a peaceful dam with a jetty and visiting cormorants.

The home is in the renowned “Ruttle Estate”, established to foster and promote native flora and fauna in a sanctuary like environment. As a result, kangaroos, echidnas, wombats and a myriad of birdlife thrive amongst native gumtrees and greenery.

The area is very peaceful throughout the year. The property is located second from the end of a no through road, so passing traffic is absolutely minimal.

The home was designed by multi award winning “Solar Solutions Design and Drafting” to draw in the Winter sun for light and warmth and then create shaded windows in the Summer. The home oozes natural warmth in Winter and uses cross ventilation principles to reduce heat in Summer. The external walls are constructed of Hebel Power Panel and high quality Rylock double glazed windows throughout to keep the temperature inside at a comfortable and efficient temperature range.

The large feature windows capture the morning and afternoon sun, while concurrently providing massive views of the surrounding landscape and the Venus Bay beach. The home encapsulates the essence of the pleasure of connecting the indoor and outdoor environments. Creating spaces that are always a delight to be in.

The upper level of the home sits amongst the tree canopy and has the master bedroom with an ensuite, large open plan kitchen, living and dining room, all efficiently warmed by a large cosy wood box fire. The kitchen is an entertainer’s dream with expansive stone benches, near new induction hotplate, near new wall mounted oven and Miele dishwasher. The large butler’s pantry has incredible storage and bench space and includes a servery with double doors into the main kitchen. A spacious home office/study room is positioned near the lounge and dining area which have magnificent Messmate floors that have recently been re-sanded and polished.
