Sun streams inside through a glorious lush tropical backdrop and sundrenched terraces cascade down into the forest. It feels like you’ve been transplanted to a relaxing holiday resort in Bali. But this serene 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom family home, peacefully hidden and secure far from the road at the edge of a valley reserve, is in one of St Heliers’ top addresses, moments from the village and beaches.
Stepping into the entry foyer, the outlook takes your breath away. Beyond, in the spacious lounge, huge timber windows frame the forest, turning it into mesmerising artworks. Pale timber floors underfoot and glass sliders to an elevated deck for indoor outdoor entertaining further enhance that relaxed carefree vibe that makes every day feel like a holiday with beautiful sunsets thanks to the elevated north-west-facing aspect.
For a family, a large practical timber kitchen features a double Smeg oven to make busy life easy and the home is laid out across 3 levels for great separation. The master suite on the main level has an en suite and its own private deck. The 2 bedrooms upstairs share a semi-ensuite and a generous self-contained ensuited apartment on the lower level is perfect for guests or Airbnb. With a kitchenette, separate lounge, great storage and a bedroom that extends to a deck for barbecues, you’re truly lost in paradise. The laundry offers the bonus of a versatile multi-purpose room and another bathroom. Even the double garage comes with a shower and toilet plus extra storage. All tiled areas including the kitchen have underfloor heating. There is central heating across the main level and a gas fire in the lounge too.
With no lawns to distract, just a forest playground that goes on for miles, this heavenly hideaway is close to the action, zoned for great schools nearby. Come home to relax!
