1 Mica Ridge is a residence that transcends expectation - a home of extraordinary design, flawless craftsmanship, and effortless sophistication, commanding a presence that few properties can rival. From the moment you approach, the property delivers a truly remarkable sense of arrival, with a dramatic and commanding entrance that sets the tone for the elegance within. This is a home of rare distinction.
Set within an exquisitely landscaped fairway-fronting section at Millbrook Resort, the residence is a seamless blend of refined architecture, natural materials, and thoughtful design. Mature plantings frame the property, creating an exceptionally private sanctuary, while the considered use of premium materials - including timber detailing of exceptional warmth, natural schist elements, and refined steelwork - creates a sense of permanence and understated luxury.
Inside, every detail has been meticulously crafted. Chestnut and black Maire timber joinery, precision steel fittings, and limestone and schist accents imbue the home with a sophisticated yet welcoming ambiance. Expansive open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas are anchored by a steel-framed gas fireplace and built-in bench seating, seamlessly connecting indoor comfort with outdoor indulgence. Two distinct alfresco areas - one with a built-in BBQ and outdoor fireplace, the other a sheltered, north-facing retreat with a Louvretec system - invite effortless entertaining.
The kitchen is a masterpiece of both form and function, featuring granite benchtops, a Wolf gas hob, Gaggenau ovens, Sub-Zero fridge/freezer, wine fridge, and an extensive scullery, providing exceptional practicality while maintaining a sense of elegance and privacy. A separate media room offers a more intimate retreat, cleverly incorporating a hidden office behind bespoke bookshelves.
The three-bedroom layout is exceptional, with the two downstairs suites setting an outstanding standard of living. The master suite is a sanctuary of unparalleled refinement, accessed through a true walk-in wardrobe with custom wood and steel detailing. The bedroom itself is vast and serene, with seamless outdoor access, a timber feature ceiling, steel joinery, a limestone fireplace, and hidden Belgian linen curtains. The ensuite is a private spa-like retreat, complete with a cast-iron bath, walk-in shower, and double vanities.
The ground-floor guest suite is equally impressive, opening via steel-framed doors to a private outdoor sanctuary. Generous in scale, it offers exceptional wardrobe space and a luxurious ensuite with a double vanity and freestanding bath, ensuring guests enjoy the same level of comfort and luxury as the owners. Upstairs, the third bedroom provides a peaceful retreat with neutral tones, board-and-batten walls, a private ensuite, and ample built-in storage—ideal for family or visiting friends.
Craftsmanship is evident throughout. All chestnut cabinetry in the bedrooms, kitchen, wine cellar, and media room has been meticulously crafted, while the chestnut ceilings in the living room and master bedroom add warmth and elegance. The black Maire flooring in the kitchen and living areas has been expertly installed, completing a refined and cohesive finish throughout the residence. A temperature-controlled wine cellar caters to collectors, while the separate laundry connects to a dedicated vegetable garden framed by elegant stonework. The garage offers space for two vehicles, a golf cart, built-in workbenches, and extensive storage. Comfort is assured year-round with underfloor heating in the bathrooms and garage, alongside ducted heating and cooling throughout the home.
Positioned in a coveted Millbrook Resort location, 1 Mica Ridge exemplifies architectural integrity, masterful design, and a harmonious connection with the surrounding landscape. The beautifully curated section enhances both privacy and outlook, while the home itself is a testament to enduring craftsmanship and timeless elegance—where sophistication meets effortless living, and every arrival is met with a genuine sense of awe.
