LIVING SPACES
Highclere is a grand, yet unpretentious Australian Homestead. Understated, light and airy rooms have been created by the interior designer owner. Elegance and comfort meld harmoniously with a mix of English, French, Italian and Spanish antique furnishings along with mid-century and contemporary pieces.
OUTSIDE
The Homestead is set at the centre of a 96-acre equestrian farm overlooking lawns, parkland, the Lake and rolling hills beyond. A sun drenched Grand East Terrace, and 2 storey verandahs are perfect to take in the views. An abundant landscape teams with unique Australian wildlife including echidnas and wombats. Birdlife is extraordinary with native wrens, finches, thrushes, parrots, kookaburras and black swans.
