‘The Glass House’ - Iconic Architectural Brilliance
Sold 10/08/2022 $2,150,000
Preeminent, unique and undeniably iconic, the 'Glass House' rightfully stakes its claim as one of the country's most emblematic homes, allowing its exceptional surrounds and north-facing views of Mount Macedon to take centre stage, framed by its unprecedented minimalistic architectural brilliance.
Established on approximately 4.1 acres with frontage to Jackson's Creek, the striking residence is defined by its semi-circular design, conceived to take full advantage of its reality-defying locale and world-class vistas, complemented by an equally superlative finish for an unsurpassed and peaceful lifestyle.
Preceded by landscaped European gardens providing an autumnal pop of vibrancy and completing the circular design, the home's thermal-glazed glass walls tantalise with previews of the home's interior, where polished concrete floors with zoned in-slab hydronic heating and 2.9m ceilings encapsulate an unrivalled living experience.
Expansive enough for the greatest of gatherings yet magnificently refined for total rest and reprieve, the central living and dining domain are exquisitely bookended by a gas log fireplace and a gourmet kitchen of true culinary prowess, adorned with Miele appliances and Carrara Italian marble benchtops.
Abundantly spacious with retreat-like space in each, the three bedrooms maintain total privacy and separation from any social noise, headlined by a decadent master suite with a walk-in robe and ensuite, romanticised by freestanding bath capturing the awe-inspiring mountain vistas.
Take in the sunrise from atop the ridge before heading down to the banks of Jacksons Creek for a spot of fishing, cruise into Gisborne township for a portion of its indulgent artisan food and wine culture, or head into Melbourne - a mere 45-minute drive from the automated front gates.
Solar power, motorised blinds, zoned split-system heating and cooling, a 25,000-litre water storage tank with an automated watering system, a 9.0 x 12.0 powered and insulated garage/workshop, CCTV gate camera, and dozens of Manchurian mature pears along the boundary complete a redefined residential experience like no other.
