Tranquil Rainforest Retreat

3 2  

Nestled on a sublime 900m2 (approx) of tropical forest surrounds yet only moments to the beach, this truly is a pristine paradise where the rainforest meets the sea.


LOCATION

Bordering the stunning Illawarra escarpment, the property lies tucked away in a leafy enclave and is surrounded by other high-quality homes.

Only a short walk away is the thriving village of Thirroul, famous for its boutique retail outlets, trendy cafes, fine dining restaurants and cultural hubs such as the local community centre, library and theatre.

The alluring aspect of this location, however, is the proximity to Thirroul Beach. A hive of activity, Thirroul Beach has something for everyone including Thirroul Pool, the Surf Life Saving Club, reserves, cycleways, playgrounds and glittering ocean waters.

The train station is a quick walk down the road and the highway is easily accessible taking you into Sydney in approximately 90-minutes and Wollongong in approximately 20-minutes.


PROPERTY

Constructed of timber and stone, this unique property blends harmoniously into its natural landscape. Hidden from the road behind a private fence, a tropical rainforest welcomes you on arrival, instantly melting away the stresses of the day.

A custom entryway opens to reveal breathtaking rustic interiors, rich in texture and oozing an earthy, innate vibe. Sprawled across 2 floors, the highlight of the upper level is the expansive dining and living rooms encompassed by soaring high ceilings and eye-catching exposed beams.

Timber and glass bifold doors create a sense of indoor/outdoor living before spilling out onto the wrap-around balcony perched amongst the treetops.
Here, you can sit for hours listening to the birds or admiring the commanding escarpment views.
A chic designer kitchen rests in the heart of the home and features a full complement of inclusions such as quality stainless steel appliances, abundant drawers and a stylish tiled splashback. Accommodation on this level includes 3 bedrooms equipped with built-ins which are serviced by a renovated family bathroom.

On the lower level, a massive rumpus awaits along with plentiful storage options. Fitted with a kitchen and a 2nd bathroom, this space offers endless opportunities to convert to dual living or run a business/studio from home (subject to WCC approval).

Outside, a sparkling inground pool entices you for a refreshing dip on those ultra-hot days. And after a swim, why not enjoy revitalising steam in the adjoining sauna. Other notable features throughout this remarkable home include an internal laundry, solar panels, an outdoor shower and a workshop.

Lovingly crafted, this rainforest retreat is a rare find and truly needs to be inspected to appreciate the tranquil ambiance.
A once in a lifetime offering to the market, this property allows you to experience the best of both the beach and the escarpment that Thirroul is renowned for. A casual stroll to all amenities, a carefree coastal lifestyle is yours to take pleasure in.
