House of the week: Palatial rural retreat

A rural retreat with a sprawling home built around a courtyard with pool is on the market in the Top End, and it also has an airconditioned workshop, bar and granny flat. The fully-fenced 1.97ha property at 10 Emanuel Rd, Girraween, is set up for private family living and entertaining. Selling agent Daniel Harris, of Real Estate Central, said the well-constructed home was a commanding residence of palatial proportions. Designed by architect Savvas Savvas, the house has 735 sqm under roof with 3.1m high ceilings, a slate feature wall and an abundance of louvres and sliding doors throughout. '(There is) a seamless flow of indoor to outdoors from all corners of the home, leading out to the truly remarkable pool, the centrepiece of the home,' Mr Harris said. The home completely wraps around the central courtyard with pool, deck and verandas. There is a big carport at the front of the home and a formal entry area leading to the oversized family room and open plan dining and kitchen area. The kitchen has Caesarstone benchtops, soft-closing doors and a 6m long butler's pantry. The home theatre is perfect for movie night and features a 3D projector screen, surround sound and under floor lighting. The main bedrooms has a massive walk-in robe and an ensuite with shower, tucked-away toilet and dual basins. Two more bedrooms share a two-way bathroom and have direct access to the central courtyard, while the fourth bedrooms with walk-in robe and pool access is right near the family bathroom and the second double carport. In the central courtyard, the pool has frameless glass fencing and LED lights, and is surrounded by a deck. A big rumpus room overlooking the pool has a timber ceiling, fully-equipped kitchen, bar and TV. The block comes with a lined 9mx12m shed with plumbing, water tanks, two split-system airconditioners and roller door access. There is also two bedroom demountable with bathroom, kitchen, living space, store room and veranda. The property has a quality bore, water tanks, shade sails, garden beds and citrus trees.
