About this property

A rare and irreplaceable offering, `Gayton' stands as one of the last remaining Victorian estates of its kind, rich in history and meticulously restored to its original grandeur. Built in 1885 and cherished by the one family for almost four decades, this remarkable residence has been revived with unwavering respect for its heritage, resulting in a home of exceptional authenticity, elegance and refinement. Occupying a sprawling landholding of over 3,000sqm amid beautiful parklike grounds, the estate unfolds with a sense of scale and presence rarely encountered. Every element speaks to its provenance from the exquisite period detailing and soaring ornate ceilings to the restored fireplaces and beautifully preserved architectural features, all presented in impeccable condition. The residence reveals palatial proportions, unfolding through an extraordinary sequence of formal and informal living zones designed for both grand-scale entertaining and everyday family living. A series of stately reception rooms features elegant lounge, dining and family areas, while a distinguished billiard room is complete with its own beautifully preserved full-size championship billiards table. Outdoors, the property transforms into a resort calibre sanctuary with a sparkling swimming pool and spa bathed in sunshine and framed by intricate stonework, while an adjoining poolside cabana with a kitchen and soaring cathedral-style ceiling evokes the ambience of a European retreat. Further highlights include an elevated tennis court, extensive under-house storage, a wine cellar and a circular driveway with six-car garaging and extensive off-street parking. - Palatial estate impeccably restored to its original period grandeur - Grand proportions with formal lounge, dining and family rooms - Vast array of informal living zones, impeccably crafted billiard room - Chef's kitchen with high-end French `Paul Bocuse' range cooker - 14m x 6m (internal size) swimming pool and spa w/ fully enclosed stone/iron fencing - Poolside cabana with kitchen and cathedral-style timber ceiling - Extensive landscaped grounds with mature planetree (Platanus) and gardens - Elevated tennis court, extensive under-house storage - Oversized upper-level bedrooms, masters and second bed open to balcony - Home office, cloak room, a grand main staircase featuring an exquisite stained glass window - Separate self-contained accommodation/original servants' quarters - Completely restored cedar panelled walls, doors, staircases, skirtings and architraves - Soaring 4m high ceilings, exquisite ornate roses, timber work and fireplaces - Solid granite floors, parquetry and timber floorboards - Six bathrooms, plus one guest powder room, featuring a main bathroom with round spa bath and ensuite with spa - Full outdoor bathroom, outdoor pool shower, workshop, wine cellar and outdoor storage - Victorian era stone fountain with Florentine statue in front garden - Circular driveway, six-car garaging, 15-20 off-street parking spaces
