This multi-property estate sits in one of Sydney’s Hills District’s most sought after areas across an expansive 3504sqm block.

Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, minutes from the newly built Sydney Metro link to the CBD, this extremely unique, the five-star property includes two stunning residences that holds 8-bedrooms, 5-bathrooms and 5-car parking split across two residences and two separate titles.

With resort-like luxury features throughout, the home also boasts an array of enviable amenities such as championship sized tennis court (with floodlights for an after dark hit), covered in-ground pool, sauna, spa and wine cellar.

The main residence holds four generous bedrooms across the upper level, including the master suite complete with large dressing room, built in daybed and opulent full-size marble bathroom and spa – complementing the other bathrooms.

Downstairs sees a main living space seamlessly linking to the outdoors, as well as a bespoke kitchen finished with marble and stone benchtops, alongside a handmade Italian cooktop and oven.

The alfresco dining area overlooks the tennis court and manicured grounds that include waterfall feature, bridge and koi pond, making for a relaxing area to unwind and also entertain.

Further luxuries include a dedicated theatre room with bar.

The second residence boasts a lift connecting the ground floor with the upper level featuring two king-size bedrooms that share well-appointed bathroom ensuite, along with a further bedroom. Three bathrooms fill the second home, featuring floor to ceiling tiling while parquet floors in the foyer transition to open plan living connected to an alfresco entertaining area that includes sauna, jacuzzi and wine cellar.

There’s no shortage of design inspiration online but nothing beats the joy of spending an afternoon immersing yourself in a good interior design book. Edited, carefully curated and, above all, designed, these titles take you behind the scenes of some of the world’s most beautiful interiors in a considered way. Think of it like the difference between listening to a few tunes on Spotify versus releasing a thoughtfully crafted studio album. We’ve assembled our top six of interior design books on the market right now for your viewing and reading pleasure.
