About this property

Tucked away privately in the tranquil hills of Skenes Creek, this remarkable architect-designed residence captures the essence of natural living and coastal serenity. Built in 1984 by architect and owner Paul McDonald, this master-built timber home rests on approximately 30 hectares of elevated land, framed by majestic gums, tall tree ferns, and ocean views. Constructed from Sequoia timber and elegantly raised on timber poles, the home merges seamlessly with its natural surroundings. Expansive decking wraps around most of the house, creating spaces to relax, entertain, and soak in the ever-changing beauty of the bush and sea. The setting is tranquil, full of bird-song - your very own wilderness with the bonus of ocean views. Inside, natural timber finishes, high ceilings, and generous glazing invite warmth and light throughout. The open-plan living and kitchen area centres around a wood fire for winter comfort, complemented by a split system for year-round climate control. The home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an office, and a flexible additional room with a toilet and ample storage space. The master suite is a peaceful sanctuary featuring a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite with handmade tiles, and a private deck with treetop and ocean views. Floor-to-ceiling windows extend into the ceiling, allowing you to gaze at the stars from bed under the night sky. Additional features include underfloor insulation, solar panels, 21,000-litre gravity-fed water tanks, and a septic system. At the end of the 200-metre driveway sits a shed/garage for storing outdoor equipment. A rare offering, 190 Hickeys Cutting is more than a home it's a lifestyle masterpiece that embodies architectural integrity, artistic beauty, and an extraordinary connection to nature.
