About this Property
Designed to maximize energy efficiency and environmental harmony, the Maxa Design home that has been featured in Better Homes and Gardens embraces passive design principles, to create a comfortable living environment for young families, professionals or retirees seeking a space to slow down, grow, work from home or entertain. More than just a house - it's a work of art that celebrates the beauty of the natural world, inviting its inhabitants to embrace a lifestyle that is both sustainable and soul-nourishing.
Every aspect of the home has been thoughtfully considered to minimise its environmental footprint utilising a Nilan energy system – one of the first of its kind in Australia. Large windows strategically positioned along the curved façade enhance the forest views, inviting natural light to flood the interior spaces, while also framing “live art” of the surrounding landscape. Step inside, and you're greeted by a sense of serenity and calm. The interior spaces flow effortlessly from one to the next, with vaulted 3.8m ceilings creating an airy and spacious atmosphere, while earthy tones evoke a sense of grounding with vibrant pops of colour to keep life interesting.
At the heart of an open plan living domain lies a contemporary stone-topped kitchen with all electric stainless steel appliances including induction cooktop, island breakfast bar and a deluxe butler’s pantry to keep life clutter free. Spectacular sliding doors invite the outdoors in with a north-easterly oriented Modwood deck capturing Warburton Ranges views. Gaze at the towering tree ferns with birdsong in the air or enjoy brunch with the king parrots, crimson rosellas, kookaburras, galahs and magpies.
Back inside, the sequestered master suite features a porcelain tiled ensuite with deluxe spa bath and lavish custom-fitted walk-in robe. Watch the sun rise over the ranges from under the covers or take your favourite book out to a secluded private balcony - the perfect spot to shut out the world. Two large bedrooms unfold from a hallway decadent in size, robed and serviced by a beautiful “bicycle vanity” bathroom.
And for those who work remotely or operate a home business, there’s a dedicated home office plus a fully lined and powered garden studio that will get the creative juices flowing.
All this serenity yet you are a short stroll to the village where you’ll find Kallista Cellars, Kallista Deli, Kallista Tea rooms, organic fruit and vegetable market, cafes, post office and Primary School.
