It's been an absolute passion and a loving obsession from the current owners to transform this once traditional two storey home into arguably one of the most talked about and iconic homes in Swan View.
Although named 'Grevillea Gardens' it's also affectionately nicknamed 'The Castle' by locals for obvious reasons, this is one home that turns heads and drops jaws from everyone that passes by.
It's been a transformation that has been a labour of love for nearly a decade and although nearing completion it's sadly now time to hand the baton of this colossal family dream to a new privileged owner one that appreciates the sheer craftsmanship and investment both in time and money it has taken to build such a family fortress.
Behind this monumental castle framework of Fibonacci designed arches, clever solar passive design and castle like brick piers awaits a modern day floor plan cascading over two levels. The upper level conveniently is at the same level as the carport and entrance making access to this home so easy. The upper level also consists of a vast open plan living area integrating the kitchen, dining and family room that spill out to an extensive decked alfresco area taking full advantage of the valley hillside vistas below. Also on this level is the Master bedroom with ensuite, study nook and two additional double size bedrooms that share a second bathroom.
Downstairs houses a further two bedrooms making that five in total, games room with spa plus a medieval stone walled bar / cellar the perfect place to enjoy a goblet or two of wine or ale. In addition to this is a third bathroom, laundry and handy large storage room / workshop.
Outside of the fortress walls is a friendly family paradise featuring a private below ground pool, lawn area for the kids and a recently built external studio that ties in seamlessly with the entire castle theme.
If there was ever an opportunity to seize the day for lovers of unique properties or character filled castles now is the time. Take full advantage of the colossal work that has been undertaken here and place your final touches on your very own castle fantasy and make it a reality.
