This magnificent home on 2.1 hectares (5.2 acres) has been cleverly designed around a delightful central living area and large outdoor deck to capitalize on the splendid rural & harbour views to the north and the wonderful northern sun which pours in through a dramatic wall of glass.

Designed by Chapman Herbert of Mt Gambier and completed in 2004 the home has been carefully to designed to maximise passive solar warming of the living areas, capitalize on the picturesque pastoral views offered by the site, provide a relaxed multipurpose living area and maximize practicality & state of the art design where ever possible.

Watching the fading sunset from the large living room and adjoining deck and enjoying the twinkling city lights in the late evening provides the perfect backdrop for entertaining a large gathering of family & friends.
Equally inviting the second living area is fully fitted with workstation, drawers & shelving and can be used as a private study, media room or quiet retreat just off the main living area.

The master bedroom enjoys the early morning sun and links to a delightful ensuite bathroom and large walk in robe & dressing room concealed behind the bed head wall. The guest bathroom also accommodates a hidden laundry behind a discrete panel of bi fold doors maximising best use of floor space.

The heart of the home as always is the kitchen & breakfast bar and the most discerning chef will enjoy the excellent layout, outstanding storage systems and must have SS appliances whilst still interacting with guests and enjoying the view.

Outdoors the large 6m x 15m 5 bay shed offers garaging for two cars, a separate insulated living area, hobbies room or teenage retreat complete with toilet & HWS, & storage cupboards, plus a further two bays of separate workshop or equipment storage.

On a practical note the home has a large reverse cycle air conditioner for heating & cooling, double glazing on most windows, full wool batt insulation in walls & ceilings, ducted vacuum system, 3 large rainwater tanks and a pressure pump. The land is divided into two well pastured paddocks with a small horse handling yard close to the main shed.

Superbly built and offering relaxing rural lifestyle just minutes from Portland's CBD, this architect designed home just begs to be seen to appreciate its full story.
