About the property
In keeping with the best of traditions, the master crafting of a pedigree property takes time.
Four generations of the Yates family have farmed the land and safeguarded the homestead property ?Hilltop?, now being offered to the market for the first time ever.
This landmark 2.404 acre (9,729 sq.metre) property is reportedly home to Karaka?s oldest trees. Set in mature landscaped grounds and gardens, the exceptional villa (circa 1904) provides ?landed gentry? living at its best combined with the convenience and comfort of 21st century accommodations.
The impressive homestead underwent extensive renovations and thorough modernisation in 1995. The rooms are generously proportioned and sun-filled with a verdant outlook over the magnificent grounds.
A sense of the home?s provenance and its character features have been preserved and meticulously maintained. Expertly created for gracious entertaining and leisure, the villa?s many spacious living areas extend out onto sheltered return verandas for all-seasons outdoor living. Outbuildings provide further extended living options.
Barbeque facilities and an outdoor fireplace cater for alfresco dining. The adjoining north-facing heated swimming pool is self-chlorinated and has a sprung diving board over the 2.9 metre deep end.
Neighbouring farmland lends a pastoral backdrop to this property?s easily-managed acreage, very suited for livestock hobby farming and children?s ponies.
Be a part of Karaka?s historical ?Hilltop? legacy while enjoying the highly sought-after location, the land, the lifestyle, the living, and all the privileged advantages the property offers its favoured new owners.
