If you were looking for a reason to move to Goulburn, here it is.

Set in a beautifully-landscaped, private and elevated position and offering extraordinary views over the entire Goulburn Valley and beyond, the bespoke master-built home at 12 Mannifera Place, Goulburn, is truly one of a kind.

Designed by award-winning architect Chris Reardon, the four-bedroom home extends over three magnificent levels.

The property is constructed of quality Taralga bluestone and Bundanoon sandstone, and features breathtaking cathedral ceilings. The home's large geometric windows are made from cedar, oregon and blackbutt timbers.

Luton Properties real estate agent Gabbi Kalthofen describes the house as “jaw-dropping”.

“As a real estate agent, I’ve been lucky enough to see a lot of amazing properties, but this one is absolutely jaw-dropping,” Gabbi says.

“It looks amazing in the photos, but it needs to be seen to be really appreciated."

The formal lounge on the main floor is one of the home’s many expansive living areas. With a stone fireplace and an in-built gas log fire, the formal lounge opens onto the sealed patio through double glass doors and leads out into the beautiful native gardens.

The heart of the home lies within the creatively-designed combined kitchen and living room featuring high ceilings and large windows. The centrepiece is the magnificent full-height stone fireplace with an inbuilt double-sided Cheminees Philippe wood-burning fire, giving the space plenty of character and charm.

Gabbi says the “incredible” double-sided chimney is a stand-out, with beautiful stonework that extends throughout the house.

Upstairs is another informal living area with remarkable lighting and stone features. This space leads into the incredible master suite, with a dressing room, luxurious ensuite, private mezzanine and a balcony, offering some of the property's best views.

Downstairs is a fully self-contained residence, with a large bedroom, bathroom, full-sized kitchen and another living space. It’s the perfect spot for guests or a potential second income.

Established and beautifully-maintained gardens are visible on the drive into the property, with extensive landscaping, rock retaining walls and native plantings. Additionally, the property is nestled into the surrounding bushland reserve, providing a tranquil escape.

The property comes with an oversized garage, capable of housing up to four cars and space for a workshop, making it perfect for the weekend mechanic.

This masterpiece residence really does have it all.

It’s a one-hour drive to Canberra, less than two hours to Batemans Bay, 45 minutes to the Southern Highlands and two hours to Sydney. Of course, Goulburn is right on your doorstep.

12 Mannifera Place, Goulburn, will be auctioned at 11am on Saturday 9 July 2022.
