Heavenly Country Retreat For Sale Central Coast NSW

9.1HA Acreage For Sale Central Coast NSW Boasting Contemporary Homestead

After more than 20 years of ownership, Sydney physiotherapist Michael Ringland and his wife Karin are reluctantly selling their “piece of heaven” at Mount White on the Central Coast of NSW.

This unique acreage for sale, known as ‘Ashland’, was initially purchased by the couple as an escape from their busy city lives and over two decades has been transformed into a luxurious rural retreat conveniently located within an hour of Sydney.

Nestled just 13 kilometres from the Hawkesbury River and three kilometres from the M1, the 22.5-acre (9.1-hectare) property features two homes – the original four-bedroom cottage and a contemporary homestead which Michael says was designed against a backdrop of “25-30 years of living in places which weren’t quite right”.

Set amongst established gardens and forests of magnificent gum trees, the architect-designed home cleverly blends multiple indoor and outdoor spaces through an array of large glass windows and doors in every room.

The living areas, along with a country-style kitchen boasting granite bench tops, walk-in pantry and quality appliances including an induction cooker with gas wok, seamlessly connects to the magnificent outdoor alfresco dining space equipped with pizza oven.

Ample storage is provided by a four-bay machinery shed with concrete floor plus an additional open-bay shed. Topping off the property’s long list of features are many walking trails and camping sites throughout the natural bushland, enhancing your country lifestyle.
