There are majestic views to Mt Wellington and down the forested valley to distant North West Bay from this executive quality family home on two levels.
Located in a sunny, north facing position, the fenced property is surrounded by native bushland with tall eucalypts, but the area about the attractive house is cleared with established, easy care gardens with a watering system and electric monitoring for household pets.
The light filled home is stately with a spacious, versatile internal layout and essentially neutral decor, quality fittings and fixtures, a ducted air conditioning system, bathroom under-floor heating, a ducted Bosch vacuuming system with a kitchen sweep vac and a C-Bus automated lighting and electronics system.
It has a protective front porchway before a dramatic entrance foyer with big, porcelain floor tiles, a modern chandelier high overhead, a wide and plush carpeted stairway to the upper level, a large pigeon-hole storage facility and a handy powder room.
On one side, double doors open to a big formal lounge with a Jetmaster open fireplace and downlighting while opposite there are double doors to an expansive open living area.
It comprises a dining area with polished timber floor-boards and an adjoining contemporary kitchen with stone benchtops, easy close cupboards and drawers, a walk-in pantry/scullery and an island workbench/breakfast bar with an integrated dishwasher, a dual sink and pop-up power points. The quality European appliances also include a gas cooktop with a glass splashback and an exhaust flue, twin stainless steel underbench ovens and an integrated Liebherr fridge-freezer. Adjacent is a capacious family room with a high pitched ceiling, an overhead fan and a sliding door stack to an expansive timber entertainment deck with built-in lighting and of equal size, a delightful reflection pond.
An internal passageway provides access to the impressive master bedroom with its wall-mounted television connection and a sliding door to a side deck with a view down to North West Bay. There's also access to a big rear deck from the walk-through wardrobe with lift hangers and adjoining tiled en suite bathroom with a tub, a double shower bay, a twin basin vanity and a heated towel rail.
Also along the passage is another bedroom with a walk-in robe and an en suite bathroom with a Tastic light/heater/exhaust and door to the rear deck, a laundry with deck access and built-in cupboards, including an excellent drying cabinet big enough to dry three full loads of washing overnight and there's internal access to the double garage with a workshop/storage area and an auto panel lift door.
On the upper level, there's a spacious open sitting area or play room with an overhead fan, three more big bedrooms with built-in robes and one linking with the family bathroom, which includes a tub, a large shower bay, a vanity unit and a laundry chute.
The home setting is tranquil and private, yet the friendly Ridgeway community is only a 10 minute drive from the city and excellent schools, shops and services and with no Brooker Highway, Southern Outlet or Eastern Shore you can enjoy a pleasant drive home. There are numerous walking and riding trails close by the property, making it an ideal environment for active grownups and children alike.
