1632 Settlers Rd

Escape the hustle and bustle and immerse yourself in the tranquillity of this one-of-a-kind retreat. Perfectly positioned between Wisemans Ferry and St Albans, just 1.5 hours from Sydney. Set high, with breathtaking bushland views, this impressive property offers the ideal combination of privacy, quality, and lifestyle.  Rich in wildlife, the regular visits from wallabies and wombats, and the abundant birdlife add to the sense of peace.

Much-admired, the home combines architect influences, quality finishes and sustainable materials to blend seamlessly with its natural surroundings. Featuring a striking mix of hardwood cladding and corrugated iron, local craftsmen have created a contemporary feel that complements it setting.  With multiple outdoor entertaining areas, an inground pool, and a substantial separate studio, this is a property that invites family, friends, and guests to relax and enjoy. This is retreat living at its best.

Inside, the home boasts a generous layout designed for comfort, connection and entertaining, with a spacious open plan kitchen and living area, in addition to the formal dining room. The entertainer’s kitchen features a 900mm free standing oven with gas cooktop, and stunning hand crafted camphor laurel finishes, while wood-burning heaters in both the master suite and living space add to the country ambiance.  Outside, wrap-around verandahs capture the year-round sun and the Australian native outlook.  Cool off in the summer in the pool or enjoy the stars on a winter’s evening keeping cosy around one of the many outdoor fireplaces.

The studio, currently a generous home office and entertaining space, has many potential uses - a teenager’s retreat, an artist’s studio, or income generating guest accommodation in this thriving tourist destination.

Properties of this calibre are highly sought after from the booming short stay (Airbnb) market, offering the opportunity to host guests in either the main residence, studio or offer the entire estate for larger groups. St Albans hosts a number of annual festivals and is also a desirable destination for rural weddings being so close to Sydney, the Central Coast and Hunter Valley
