Ideal for those seeking a peaceful country lifestyle in a highly sought after locale with plenty of space to roam for the entire family.
Set back from the road and down a tree-lined driveway, the four year old home is move-in ready and immaculately presented from the moment you arrive. Double garage to one side provides direct access into the home and secure vehicle storage. Entering through a double timber front door, you will be taken by the sense of space in the entryway. Immediately to the right is the first of the bedrooms, this room offering great flexibility to be used as a guest bedroom, study or even private studio.
The right wing of the home consists of the formal living room and master bedroom suite with windows overlooking the front garden, walk-in robe and ensuite bathroom with double vanity complete with stone benchtops. Modern, neutral finishes are continued to the left of the home with a full family bathroom, separate toilet, as well as a multipurpose living room with walls of storage ideal for family use. Three additional, good-sized bedrooms, all with built-in robes are found in the left wing of the home offering privacy and space for a family.
At the heart of the home is the generous open-plan living area, wrapped in large windows overlooking the land beyond and the warmth of a solid fuel wood burner fireplace is the centre of it all. The kitchen is complete with stone benchtops and quality appliances including Miele dishwasher, 900mm oven and gas cooktop. A giant island bench flows into the dining area, with warm timber tones and flooded with natural light, it will prove to be a place to stay and enjoy.
Leading out through glass sliding doors to a covered alfresco area, with views over the fenced yard and further bushland, is a retreat you will never want to leave. Timber decking leads to a recent patio extension complete with retractable zip-lock blinds and walkway to a 9m x 4m salt chlorinated pool. The well thought out finishes of exposed aggregate and travertine tiles perfect the fenced pool area.
The fully fenced house yard is surrounded with established gardens with vegetable beds and fruit orchard that are individually irrigated for optimum growth. At the rear of the house yard are three further fully fenced yards suitable for hobby farm use.
Three-bay barn style shedding offers storage to suit your lifestyle needs and plenty of space for a home workshop.
