Crafers - you know that brilliant little village at the top of the freeway which is home to more than its fair share of gorgeous properties. The problem has always been getting your hands on one. Even so, none could be more idyllic than this four bedroom, two bathroom Colonial tucked away at the end of a no-through street, where children have been riding their bikes for generations.
Yes, there's something about the utter seclusion of this quiet, wooded pocket - with a paddock at one end of the street and a bus stop (to town) at the other, that makes this 'the perfect place to raise a family'.
Adored by just one family for more than 40 years, this storybook double-brick home is set upon beautiful English gardens with a heavenly degree of maturity that screens out the neighbours (though you'll love them too), while also making this 1,095m² slice of Eden remarkably easy to maintain.
As with all good homes, this one has evolved in considerable style and comfort to meet the needs of the growing family. Successive renovations have seen the addition of a large family room at the rear, a whole upper level for teens (or guests) and a double carport affording side-by-side parking under the main roof.
And if there's one thing we all love, (and can rarely get enough of), it's storage; delivered here with capacious robes, a clutter-busting wall unit and various useful stores including lined loft spaces that will soon have your suitcases, Christmas decorations, spare mattresses and winter wardrobe stowed neatly out of sight.
Just recently the whole home has been freshly painted and carpeted to thrill, making this a stunning move-in ready opportunity for a lucky new family and their friends.
However, don't lock yourself away just yet (though you'll be tempted for sure), because a short walk away there's all of Stirling and the botanic gardens to explore, community sport to throw yourself into and, for those that rise early, the sunrises over Piccadilly Valley are a must. Sheer bliss!
