Resting within its own private vale, 'Shillingford' is a Southern Highlands estate shaped by symmetry, scale and a quiet sense of calm. Established hedging, mature trees and sweeping lawns, designed by landscaper Charlotte Webb, frame the residence which unfolds across 8.05 hectares in a secluded Exeter setting. A tree-lined drive leads to a circular gravel forecourt and porte-cochere entry, where the Georgian-inspired facade sets the tone. Across two levels, the home balances formal and informal living, each area enjoying a strong connection to the landscape and tranquil views over rolling countryside to the lake below. On the ground floor, elegant lounge and dining rooms sit alongside a more relaxed open plan domain, where a gourmet kitchen, meals area and media space extend to a series of alfresco terraces. Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms provide accommodation for family and guests. The main suite is complete with a walk-in robe and dual-vanity ensuite, while a secondary bedroom also features its own ensuite, well suited to guest use. Beyond the residence, the grounds take on a resort-like quality. A two-storey pool house mirrors the scale and presence of the main home, incorporating a living area, kitchen, bathroom and upper-level accommodation. Adjacent, a heated infinity pool and north-east facing terrace create a setting for long days outdoors. A tennis court, open grounds and scope for equestrian use complete an estate designed for both retreat and recreation. ● Georgian-style residence with five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a powder room ● Circular gravel forecourt with porte-cochère entry and tree-lined driveway ● Formal lounge and dining rooms, each with open fireplaces ● Gourmet kitchen with quality appliances and adjoining meals and media areas ● Extensive indoor–outdoor flow to alfresco terraces and entertaining spaces ● Self-contained two-storey pool house with kitchen, bathroom and accommodation ● Heated infinity pool and a full-size tennis court ● Expansive open areas suitable for recreation or equestrian use, plus a lake-like dam ● A fully integrated bore-fed irrigation system keeps the grounds lush year-round ● An established stonefruit orchard creates a true country lifestyle setting ● Four-car garage with additional storage and ample off-street parking
