Set in a mountain rural landscape of farms, bushland, rainforest and fine horticultural gardens just 2 hours from Sydney, Carisbrook, Mount Irvine, is a modern country estate resting atop one of the Blue Mountains most scenic destinations.

Amid stunning landscaped gardens by renowned Landscaper, Michael Bates and Horticulturalist Eleanor Herriott, the approximately 8.3 ha property features several contemporary constructions, built of fire resistant and low maintenance Corten steel. The main house is designed for entertaining and family gatherings with 4 large bedrooms, while a second 3-bedroom residence is attached to the large shed/garage and a small machinery shed sits in the back paddock.

"There is so much to love about this spectacular property," Grant Dale told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND. 

"From the moment you drive through the gate, the owner's labour of love is on full display - from the manicured gardens to the timber used throughout that has been harvested on site and milled locally, the attention to detail is clear for all to see - spectacular doesn’t do it justice."

All living areas have distinctive and interesting aspects; the main home is graced with a soaring Cathedral ceiling of Blackwood timber beams felled & milled on the property. A pair of rare antique Indian doors greets guests at the entrance (it has an ancient secret locking system). The polished concrete floors, Wi-Fi, cable tv, large showers, continuous hot water and new screened and double-glazed windows to the ground lounge area provide the level of comfort expected in city living.

The gardens and back paddock are some of only a handful in the Mount Irvine/ Mount Wilson area that can boast a mild slope with a parkland feel. Antique architectural stone sculptures, a young pine truffle infused forest, a vegetable garden, kitchen herb garden, orchard, fern forest, colourful flowers, walnut, and chestnut trees all wonderful details to discover on a walk. The back paddock is fenced and has access to water for livestock.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, landscaper Michael Bates of Bates Landscape said, “The fertile basalt soil is just the beginning of the many great attributes of Carisbrook.”

“The property is expansive and level and has the advanced trees of an established hill station garden, with plenty of scope for development for a keen garden-maker.”

“Alternatively, it could be just as easily enjoyed as it is in all its floral splendour and amenities.”
