the home features a 100 year-old turret from Scots College, Warwick (A-M, this one's for you!)
the dam is stocked with perch
I might just take a dip in the 21 metre infinity-edge pool
there's a section of rare rainforest on the 100 acre property
the home took five years to build - the 150 custom-made verandah posts were designed especially for the property
the attention to detail is amazing - look at those windows!
no, this isnt the main house - it's just the garage/games room/studio
the home was decorated by Coco Republic - nothing but the best
You can read more about this gorgeous home here and here. It was on the market for only $7.5 million. Worth every penny I think - if only I had enough of those pennies to snap it up for myself!
Thanks everyone for your lovely comments, wishing my son luck with his football. They worked wonders - the boys won both games convincingly yesterday! Fingers crossed today will bring more of the same - they have one more pool match this morning, before heading into finals over the rest of the week.
Hope you all have a great day too,
Hope you all have a great day too,
Wouldn't this be an wonderful home to decorate for Christmas? Thanks for the amazing photos.

Yes..not too shabby at all. I'll be happy in the garage when I come to visit you...but please make sure all the snakes have gone ok? Yay footy boys! All the best for today. Australia could do with a few good young'uns on the team right now!
ReplyDeleteDid you hear that sound? That was my jaw hitting the floor. Oh too much eye candy at once, so early in the morning. Hear that sound? That's me running to get a tatts ticket!!
ReplyDeleteIt's breathtaking.
ReplyDeleteHi Kerri, I think you are right, it doesn't get much better than this - how perfect and lovely interior as well. I feel like I have seen this house before on some TV reality couples show with Jules Lund? Could it be I wonder... Anyway at the time I remember thinking how gorgeous the house was... Oh to dream.... I think there is a big lotto jackpot tonight.... Come on Dad, win it for me.... :-) Thanks for sharing this beautiful home Kerri and good luck to your son for the rest of the week!
ReplyDeleteI do believe it is perfection and 100 acres of land to go with it too.
ReplyDeleteKerri, that house is beyond amazing - I particularly love the roof lines, the panelled walls and the gorgeous windows. Would love to move in tomorrow!
ReplyDeletehow gorgeous! I love the grey and white exterior and the windows and and and.... everything!:)
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhhhhh..... I am about to internally combust Kerri, I can't take any more beauty!
ReplyDeleteThat house.... ohhhhhh.... not even in my wildest dreams could I even think up a home that stunning. Thanks for sharing. This is def going into my 'house inspiration file' asap!

ReplyDeleteHey, I', satrting painting my kitchen cabinets. I bought a paint that has primer in it already. Did you send yours? I'm kind of lazy for that, but if I have to, so i'll do it!
Have a lovely week, dear!
Hugs, Li :-)
Maybe a little big for us - but most likely all the rellies would come to stay anyway!
ReplyDeleteInteresting that it is built in a dip, not on top of the hill for the views, so I wonder what the reason is - winds, maybe? I have a friend up there, maybe she has the skinny on it!
Oh it's so pretty! Love all the wood work, gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteXO
Oh my this is amazing!! It's like A-M's house on steroids!!
ReplyDeleteLOve it, Love it....so well done...Love the loung dining area. Thanks for the inspirational start to my day.

ReplyDeleteIt is a beautiful house and I think it is quite reasonably priced for what it is! I love the area and the house! Perfect! Great news on the football, I hope the winning continues! xx
ReplyDeleteSeriously Kerri, I think we all need to sell up our current abodes, pool our money and all chip in. I'll be alternating between fishing and G&T's by the pool.

ReplyDeleteWow, that's a house! I think I could easily fit 3 or 4 of my house within it and then some.
ReplyDeleteWhat really spoke to me is how wonderfully it fits with the land as shown in your second image. Just stunning...

ReplyDeleteYeh, I could probably handle living there ;-)
ReplyDeleteDivine! Thanks for sharing such a beautiful home with us! I was tagged and asked to answer a few questions and in response to "If you could be someone else for a day, who would it be?" I wrote:
ReplyDelete"I would like to be the owner of the home posted by Kerri of Driftwood Interiors yesterday! Wow! Yes, that home surely wins the title of Australia’s Perfect House. For a day, I would be in home owner heaven!"
and I mean it!
Love your blog!

Kerry, this would be the perfect house anywhere!! Oh my how gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI reckon A-M's still having trouble regaining her breath, this so up her alley! Absolutely fabulous, but needs some great window treatments & a family to warm it up.
ReplyDeleteMillie ^_^
This house was used for a tv show. Something to do with couples, it only lasted one season, but I do remember thinking this was the most gorgeous house I'd ever seen. Donna
