Peacefully positioned at the end of a liquidambar-lined cul-de-sac, this beautifully refined 5.5-acre estate captures the romance of traditional country living with the sophistication of a modern rural retreat, yet remains only 45 km (approx. 45 minutes drive) from the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Perched high on a north-facing ridge overlooking the sweeping expanse of the valley below, the property has been meticulously crafted over many years, with every detail considered and executed to an exceptional standard.
Originally inspired by a gracious country home in Leura, the double-brick residence was designed with soaring 12-foot ceilings and generous proportions that immediately set it apart. Light-filled in every season, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined to enhance its timeless character. Hardwood beams now emphasise the farmhouse aesthetic, while a series of carefully curated renovations-including fully updated bathrooms and extensive joinery upgrades-elevate the home to a standard rarely offered.
A gravel circular driveway framed by mature trees and hedges leads to a grand entry foyer, setting the tone for the craftsmanship within. The heart of the home is the bespoke country kitchen, where Carrara marble benchtops blend seamlessly with handcrafted joinery built onsite in the workshop. An antique European carpenter's bench forms an extraordinary island, creating a striking centrepiece that speaks to the artisanal spirit of the property. A full butler's pantry supports the kitchen, while a servery window connects effortlessly to the outdoors for relaxed entertaining.
Accommodation is generous and highly flexible. The north-facing master suite occupies a private position upstairs, featuring a large ensuite with bath and an elegant dressing room. A second north-facing bedroom suite, also upstairs, includes its own walk-in robe and ensuite. A third bedroom on the ground floor enjoys an ensuite and built-in wardrobe, ensuring comfort for guests or multi-generational living. A private guest residence offers further separation and amenity.
Throughout the home, every space has been considered to make the most of the ridge-top setting, with generous openings framing tranquil bushland panoramas and inviting natural light deep into the interiors. Cooling breezes rise directly from the Hawkesbury River on warm summer days, enhancing the calm, airy atmosphere. Additional features include a basement cellar, multiple garages and carports, a chicken coop, vegetable gardens, and beautifully landscaped grounds that invite a slower, more connected way of living.
Wonderfully secluded yet exceptionally convenient, the property is just 4 km (approx. 5 minutes drive) to Berowra Waters for boating, waterfront dining and access to the Hawkesbury. Galston village is only 9.5km (Approx. 12 minutes drive) , while leading private schools including Northholm Grammar 4.5 km, Barker College, Knox Grammar and Pymble Ladies' College are within 22-28 km (approx. 30 minutes drive). Leisure amenities are superb, with Riverside Oaks Golf Course around 20 km (approx. 25 minutes drive), and the Northern Beaches within 35-40 km (approx. 45 minutes drive).
As featured in Country Style magazine and Homes To Love - 15 Charming Country Homes Around Australia - this is a rare offering: a ridge-top sanctuary where craftsmanship, character and contemporary comfort come together to create one of Berrilee's most special rural homes-ready to be lived in and loved from the moment you arrive.
