Peaceful by position and strengthened by its surroundings, this 2.2-hectare (approximately 5.4 acres) lifestyle block leads with its landscape, providing a backdrop of natural beauty for a new build to follow.

Pass through the roadside electric gates and join the small enclave of some of the finest lifestyle properties to be found in Coatesville which, as you know, is spoilt when it comes to prestige homes. The meandering drive sets the theme here.

Nestled into the folds of the Coatesville Scenic Reserve is quite possibly the best-kept secret in this community. The north-facing setting is buffered by native bush and established exotics as the waterfall/lake comes into view, delivering breathtaking scenery where architectural ambitions can take hold.

A setting of this calibre deserves architecture to match, leaving the next chapter open for owners who will steer its future.
