Austinmer Rainforest Sanctuary

The hustle and bustle of city life is just that, hustle and bustle. Transform yourself into a world of birdsong, the rustle of wind in the trees and soothing sounds of the ocean. This contemporary home is at one with its natural surrounds, large picture windows highlight a stunning vista of tree ferns, eucalyptus, and the occasional cheeky Wallaby delighting family and friends. City suit by day, beach wear on the weekends, you will be in awe of your new found lifestyle.

- Set down from the road in its own private sanctuary, descend the stairs to discover the delights beyond

- First on the journey is a lovely front timber deck, soak up the sun as you relax and write your memoirs

- Venture beyond the funky orange door and take in the earthy feel of 6inch Tallow hardwood floors

- Architectural inspired raked ceilings, an open plan layout and the leafy view from every window just beg you to spend time at home

- A subtle split level between the kitchen/dining area and living room cleverly defines the space without interrupting the seamless flow

- The kitchen will have you tackling Heston Blumenthal masterpieces; the 900mm Smeg oven, European appliances and all of the high end finishes will excite the best home cooks and chefs

- The lively dinner party floats from the dining to lounge, some guests drift to the balcony while others cosy up to beautiful gas fire

- For those friends who have overindulged, there is a guest room/study on this level complete with its own bathroom

- Downstairs is a fabulous rumpus space, where the kids can spread toys, play games and watch movies to their heart's content

- The master bedroom is generous in size, has huge built-in wardrobes and a large window to gaze at the full moon on a clear night

- Bedrooms two and three are also well proportioned and have built-ins while one has access to the downstairs balcony

- Speaking of which, this balcony is a wonderful relaxation space, chill out on the day bed in the sunshine and marvel at the peace and quiet

- A stunning modern bathroom has floor to ceiling tiles and every girl's dream deep bath for soaking away the stress of the day

- Step outside and appreciate the terrace backyard which merges with the rainforest beyond

- Fabulously located, the famous Sublime Point Lookout track is on your door-step, and beaches, cafes, schools and transport just down the road

Contemporary living in such a peaceful and picturesque setting is a rare find, an inspection is a must
