During their 24 years of their ownership, this sensational 1989-built family home has benefited from two sympathetic architect-designed expansions to accommodate the owner's now grown and flown children. The end-result is a seamless fusion of timeless with new; a testament to contemporary open plan and light-filled living. Surrounding mature trees, tennis courts and the cascading valley below provide a glorious green backdrop to the perfect indoor/outdoor flow.

From the welcoming oak-floored entry hall you have multiple destination choices. Turn right to the chef's kitchen, casual family room, big laundry and over-sized garage, or zip upstairs to the retreat-like master bedroom suite - complete with a large walk-through robe, an adjacent office, nursery or 6th bedroom, and your own private deck with harbour and valley views.

Turn left from the entry and you'll discover a dedicated split level children's wing and guest suite. Deliciously private and separate from the more formal areas, four bedrooms and two bathrooms serve this zone; the centrepiece being a fabulous tiled games and party-room from where you can literally dive straight into the family-sized pool. Your kids' friends will be green with envy - they'll never want to leave.

The large formal lounge and dining area is strategically situated in the centre of this magical home. Grown-ups will entertain in style from here and move effortlessly from inside to outside. The wide sun-drenched and heated outdoor patio flows to manicured gardens and lush grass. The tranquility, day and night, is simply amazing.

It's time for a lucky new family to experience this very special and much-loved home.
