Midlands Grandeur Manor

The most architecturally significant homestead within The Farms, Mount Verde.

An iconic residence — within The Farms and the greater estate — defined by scale, presence and exceptional versatility.

Positioned on a commanding north-facing site within Mount Verde Estate, this exceptional property combines architectural intent with refined country living, creating a home of enduring design and presence.

The architecture is both timeless and intentional, creating a sense of arrival and flow through expansive living spaces, elevated ceilings, and carefully considered symmetry. A defining feature of the home is the wrap-around verandas, enclosed with sunplex frameless glass door system, offering uninterrupted views while creating a refined, all-season living environment that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor spaces.

From formal reception rooms to relaxed family lounges and sun-filled entertainment areas, the home balances grandeur with comfort. A dramatic central staircase leads to an extensive lower-level entertainment wing, including cinema, bar, games lounge and pool areas — all opening onto landscaped terraces and a 25m swimming pool.

The primary suite is privately positioned and beautifully proportioned, featuring a fireplace, bay window, private foyer entrance, walk-in wardrobe and a full en-suite bathroom. A separate bedroom wing, together with two studies, allows for both privacy and functional living.

The lower level is thoughtfully designed as a fully independent lifestyle and entertainment wing, comprising multiple lounges, bar, cinema room and games areas. In addition, this level incorporates a fully self-contained two-bedroom cottage, together with a gymnasium, bike workshop, storeroom and supporting bathroom facilities.

With minimal reconfiguration, the gymnasium and bike workshop can be seamlessly integrated into the existing cottage to create a spacious four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence — entirely separate from the main entertainment and cinema areas, with both internal and external access via dedicated staircases.

Additional accommodation includes a separate upper-level cottage and a groom’s cottage, supporting a multi-generational living environment within estate guidelines.

The land itself is equally compelling. Comprising approximately 11 hectares of mature timber plantation, open paddocks and landscaped terraces, the property lends itself to a refined country lifestyle. With established stabling and infrastructure, it is ideally suited to an elite equestrian or stud farm setting — a rare offering within the greater Hilton and Mount Verde area.

Importantly, the property allows for the construction of an additional dwelling, further enhancing its long-term value and flexibility.

Water infrastructure is extensive, supported by borehole supply, significant on-site storage, filtration systems and a ring irrigation network servicing the homestead and gardens. Energy infrastructure includes a 3-phase 24kW generator and an existing solar installation (requiring inverter and battery upgrade), ensuring long-term sustainability and independence.

The estate is secured with monitored perimeter fencing, 24-hour guarded access and patrols, while the residence itself offers comprehensive security including controlled access, alarm systems and integration with estate and private response services.

This is a rare opportunity to secure one of Mount Verde’s most distinguished properties — defined by scale, architecture and long-term legacy.
