2041 Myrtle Mountain Road Candelo NSW 2550

Elegant and Sophisticated yet Completely Unpretentious.

Where does one start when trying to capture the unique detail and quality build of this sophisticated, contemporary, elegant yet simple home, with stunning views everywhere you look?
This is for the discerning buyer who loves only the best: a love of quality, design, simplicity and sustainability. This exclusive, yet unassuming, home is set majestically above the township of Candelo on 2.83 hectares (7 acres), with stunning views in all directions from different aspects of the house and over the property.

There is so much to share here, so make a cuppa, take a seat and watch your own Grand Design materialise before your eyes - there is no short way to describe this property and the photos can’t describe how it ‘feels’... so please come for a visit.

So much is consolidated into this 2 bedroom, 3 bathroom property. The main residence is exclusively for a single person or couple - one bedroom, 2 bathrooms, open living and kitchen, all by design ... that’s right, everything is by design and integrated to make the most of less, while having more of the best.
This is quite possibly the ultimate ‘downsizer’, for that very lucky buyer, ready for the best years ahead.

The modern features include the state-of-the-art ’smart’ connections throughout the entire residence, Retractable TV screen, Hue Lighting System, Closed Cell Blinds (remote controlled smart blinds), with Smart Thermostat for room temperature control when home or for remote activation. Hardwired ‘Blue Vein’ network and TV cables connect to outlets in all 3 buildings ensuring unparalleled internet speed anywhere in the dwellings.

Then there are the SO MANY high-end quality details and finishes including; Japanese Brass Door Hardware and towel rails from Bankston throughout, Porters Paints for all painted surfaces, the absolutely stunning Rolled Brass Kitchen Benchtop from Carters Pambula, the 92 inch Timber Ceiling Fans, the elegant Drop Lighting of annulled gold/brass fittings and the underfloor heated, polished concrete floors.

The light-filled open kitchen is tastefully finished in a matte dark navy, which perfectly compliments the brass and concrete detail, all drawers and cupboards with soft close features, top range Electrolux Dishwasher with comfort lift, Electrolux Oven with pyrolytic clean, steam etc and 5 burner gas cooktop. This kitchen is calling out to be hosting and entertaining - and what a ‘room with a view’.

Easy open plan living, with floor to ceiling 4 x bifold doors opening onto the north facing deck, blurring the line of summer living spaces, both in and outdoors. The purpose built dining table, on castors, is designed to be moved to suit the occasion and the weather, including onto the deck and fits snuggly under the kitchen bench.
The common bathroom, with a lovely smoked glass-screened shower for family and guests, is easily accessible to wash off those outdoor adventures.
The sliding Barn Doors are used to maximise living space and the front door is tastefully colour matched to the Candelo Town Hall. Again, no detail has been overlooked.
The large slow combustion WISE wood heater has a water jacket providing and hot water and underfloor heating throughout this funky home, with Smart Thermostat … enabling you to warm up the house before you even arrive home on those winter evenings!

This property is thoughtfully and cleverly engineered, with ‘no expense spared’ energy efficient and solar passive design - warm in winter, cool in summer; with double glazing, highly insulated ceilings, solar-oriented design, ‘hydronic’, thermostatically controlled underfloor heating - from the water jacket on the slow combustion and/or the solar hot water evacuated tube system; the 225mm concrete walls, with 100mm slab of thermal mass insulation sandwiched in between - 3 layers held together with fibreglass connectors.
Even the timber lined ceiling of the verandah and eaves are insulated. Solar evacuated tubes, perfectly positioned, ensure bountiful hot water, complimentary from our sun. Energy Rating is at least 8 stars.
The generous full length covered verandah has Majestic Views facing east over Candelo Village and beyond, for the morning breakfast ritual or afternoon cocktails and complete privacy is had from each room.

The master bedroom is its own separate villa, yet intimately connected to the main residence. The private bedroom boasts stylish shadow gap ceilings, a Walk-through Robe, and a very unique bathroom with a double-head shower, double washplane concrete basin, underfloor heating, killer views and the practical design allows you to step directly onto the villa deck, straight from the shower.

The second bedroom is its own self contained and private space, tucked away in one bay of the ‘great shed’.
Generous Queenbed sized room with ceiling fan, WIFI, extra insulated, own HW instant gas, new bathroom and separate toilet. Perfect for guests or teenagers wanting their privacy and autonomy.
The 3 carport and 2 bay, high ceiling enclosed shed is a must for the artist, handyperson or hobby farmer.

There is a generous laundry, storage and wet area with extra deep benches, excellent storage and ample scope for more. There is also a built in Energy Recovery Ventilator which is installed but as yet, unused.

The dozen or so fruit trees are already planted, the chook shed is built, and the new 80,000L water tank is perfect for all your water needs.

This masterpiece is done and work has now called our designer/vendors away from the area….this beauty is simply waiting for the next owner to add their own personal touches.

THEN…If you want to extend this one-of-a-kind home, this has also been thought through too and is included for you!
Ready to submit to the Bega Valley Shire Council are the Engineering, Fire Plan and Architecturally Drafted Plans, including Basix (approx cost to date: $6000) ready for CDC approval.
These plans are for an extra 2 bedrooms, another bathroom designed to be sympathetic to the original home with ideal solar orientation and privacy. The land size also lends itself to the possibility of a second dwelling, STCA.

Candelo itself is charming. The village is a community rich with musicians and artists, quaint historic homes, the meandering Candelo River around which the monthly markets, tennis courts, children’s playground and Candelo Village Festival are held. The property is a short walk to the 50m Candelo Pool.
The main street boasts the thriving Candelo Cafe, General Store, Stock and Feed Rural store, Service Station, Post Office, Town Hall, Primary School and Police Station. There is also the renowned Candelo Pub across the bridge. This is a village where you can fulfil your social, creative and community needs without ever leaving town.
Bega is only 20 minutes and Merimbula 25 minutes for those wanting the shopping and services available in the ‘big smoke’.

This truly special and unique home is set majestically above the township of Candelo, on 2.83 hectares; it is simple, elegant, designed for low maintenance, low energy costs and easy living. With so many unique details and stunning views everywhere you look, it is sure to surprise and delight, so please come and see for yourself.
