Buyers looking for rural retreat are set to fall in love with this Mount Campbell house, complete with views as stunning as its attention to detail.

The two-storey, five-bedroom house is set on four acres in the popular Googong region, cleverly cascading down a slope to take advantage of the area’s picturesque rolling hills.

The home’s meticulous design is obvious as soon as you walk through the front door.

Ironbark timber recycled from a bridge near Bungendore has been used to create the house’s front door and columns, matching timeless timber floors and limestone tiles throughout.

Inside, the entry leads down steps into an open-plan living and dining area.

An impressive kitchen features endless bench space, modern appliances, a dedicated wine fridge and almost endless storage.

A stainless steel benchtop, mirrored splashback and funky box lights add a modern edge.

Large windows and floor-to-ceiling bi-fold glass doors take advantage of the breath-taking view and open the house on to a spacious wooden deck.

The main bedroom is just as impressive.

Large windows in the bedroom and en suite ensure future occupiers barely have to lift their heads from their bed, the shower or spa bath to see the view.

The stunning en suite is as large as a main bathroom and also features a double vanity and separate toilet.

The remaining bedrooms feature in built-wardrobes. Two of the three are located either side of a spacious rumpus room, which is perfect for children and teenagers and could be used as an alternative living space.

The main bathroom is located nearby and includes a built-in bath, seamless glass shower and modern fixtures.

Moviegoers won’t need to leave the house with a home theatre including two rows of tiered seating and electric curtains.

Other standout rooms include a gym area which could easily be converted into a home business space, under-house storage perfect for a cellar, and spacious laundry with swathes of storage and a fold-out ironing board.

Outside, the installation of an in-ground pool is under way next to an undercover entertaining area and plenty of lawn for families to enjoy.

Two large garages offer plenty of space for cars, storage, a caravan or even small farm machinery.
