A French-inspired eight-bedroom, 10-bathroom chateau is on the market in Dural; a crown upon over 20,000 square metres of elevated land with sensational views to the Blue Mountains.

“I have been selling property in the northwest of Sydney for 27 years and I have never come across anything like this. It’s the most impressive home I have ever seen,” said selling agent, Sandra Ward from Ray White Dural.

She cited features such as the full size tennis court, pool and cabana, dance studio, sauna, library, billiards room with wet bar, multiple fireplaces, Gaggenau kitchen with dedicated cold room, basement cellar and garaging for four cars and parking for another seven.

“And the views are truly spectacular, stretching away to the Blue Mountains,” she added.

The vast grounds are partially landscaped while a large deck overlooks the lake which serves as a dedicated water supply for the gardens.

“It’s chateaux-inspired outside. It was originally built by a Frenchman in the 90s, however inside it’s really quite contemporary,” Ms Ward said, adding that it has been renovated and extended since the original build.

“There are four bedrooms in one wing and the master bedroom occupies the whole right hand side of the house; it alone has three balconies. It’s absolutely spectacular.”

Ms Ward said the majestic property would suit a large family with multiple generations due to it containing a separate self-contained one-bedroom apartment as well as two studio apartments that could also serve as au pair’s quarters.

“And there are bathrooms everywhere. Every bedroom has an en suite,” she exclaimed.

With only a short time on the market, Ms Ward said she has had a lot of interest from Chinese buyers and prominent locals.
