A Private Resort-Style Estate With North Facing Rainforest Gardens And A Heated Pool On 961sqm. First Time Offered In 18 Years

One of only two properties accessed via a private drive off Hopetoun Avenue, this luxurious family retreat is set snug in the hillside with a due north aspect and lush rainforest gardens affording the sensation of a living in your own tropical paradise. Capturing views out to the harbour from the upper level, the freestanding home is spread over three sun-drenched levels with the lower level designed to function as a private suite ideal for guest or teen accommodation. Deep decks create a natural extension of the interiors and effectively bring the outdoors in while a heated mosaic-tiled pools brings a relaxed resort-like vibe. Set on a sprawling 961sqm approx landholding where the rainforest meets the harbour, this is one of Sydney's secret treasures with pathway access down to historic Vaucluse house, the picturesque foreshore and secluded boutique beaches. A world away from care, this private haven is just 200m to Vaucluse village cafes with close proximity to renowned schools and 7km to the CBD.
