Paul Bangay, Australia's preeminent garden designer, is selling his “life’s greatest work”.

The 39 acre estate is set in the rolling foothills near Kyneton, just over an hour from Melbourne in Victoria's spa region.

Stonefields has been a treasured home for Bangay and his husband Barry McNeill for 18 years, during which he transformed the then-cow paddock into one of the world’s cherished private gardens.

Now that his beloved gardens have matured, he’s looking forward to another 10-year project to create a "forever garden" in their next home in Victoria’s Central Highlands.

The sale of the 4 bedroom home and iconic gardens comes with the longtime gardener, who has “ been with us since the time of inception," Bangay said in an interview about this iconic Australian listing.

"He has all the knowledge on all the working of the garden, but I hope the people will say 'can you come back once every three months, or keep an eye on it?' I'd love to do that."

The Tuscan-inspired residence at the heart of the property was designed in tandem with the late interior designer Stuart Rattle, combining architecture and landscape design to create a sense of serenity.

In addition to the extraordinary gardens, Stonefields comes with an iconic hilltop pool overlooking the rolling hills and a guest house and a studio
