1235 West Portland Rd, Lower Portland NSW

Set within one of the Hawkesbury River's most picturesque junctions, Venetiaville is a landmark estate shaped by history, architecture and landscape.

Over more than a century, the estate has been held by a small number of considered custodians, each contributing to its measured evolution. The original homestead has been sensitively extended and enhanced, complemented by landscaped gardens, restored orchards, a timber barn and a beautifully renovated guest cottage, all carefully positioned within the natural setting.

In 2006, architect Timothy Moon was commissioned to design a contemporary addition that respects the heritage core while embracing the estate's elevated river outlook. Further improvements followed, including extensive landscaping works, the establishment of a tranquil arboretum, and the expansion of the original citrus orchard to include mangoes, avocados and a diverse collection of fruit trees. A resort-style infinity pool, studio, and additional outbuildings were introduced to enhance both functionality and amenity.

Today, Venetiaville unfolds across approximately 44 acres of formal gardens, sweeping lawns and native forest. A tree-lined driveway leads to the elevated homestead, where expansive river views are enjoyed from the residence and pool terrace. The main house offers four bedrooms and is defined by a gracious column-lined verandah, vaulted living spaces, fireplaces, walls of glass and seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining areas. A skylit kitchen with butler's pantry and sandstone wine cellar anchors the home, while intimate garden spaces and a secluded outdoor shower provide quiet moments of retreat.

Separate accommodation includes a renovated three-bedroom guest or manager's cottage, a timber barn with loft and workshop, studio space, ornamental pond and garaging. The estate is further distinguished by exceptional water security, supported by high annual rainfall, a private lake, licensed river irrigation and substantial rainwater and bore storage, ensuring the long-term sustainability of its orchards, gardens and grounds.

Venetiaville is approximately 1.5 hours drive from Sydney CBD, offering a peaceful riverside escape within easy reach of the city. Access is via the M2, Old Northern Road and Wisemans Ferry Road with the scenic Hawkesbury River adding to the charm of the journey.
