12 Laurie Road, Doncaster East VIC 3109

Tucked away in a peaceful and private neighbourhood frequented only by local residents and visitors, this grand five-bedroom home framed by a landscaped garden, is a prime example of luxurious, upmarket living.

In fact, the modern family couldn't ask for anything more, as this large 30-square (approx.) residence combines four spacious living areas with an entertainer's playground in a sought-after location in Manningham.

An innovative floorplan cleverly zones four generously sized bedrooms (Master with ensuite) and a main family bathroom (with corner spa) in a private wing, while a fifth bedroom option downstairs offers the flexibility of a peaceful home office set-up.

For a touch of class, an opulent formal lounge sits below an elevated dining room, and when you plan informal celebrations, you may host a glamorous poolside party beneath the shelter of the large alfresco entertaining area.

In winter, throw some logs into the open fireplace of the elevated rumpus and enjoy movie nights with the family, and during warmer periods, slide open the glass doors to unite the interior with the paved backyard, which boasts a stunning solar-heated and saltwater chlorinated swimming pool with a fully-tiled spa as its centrepiece.

The floor-length windows of the centrally located family room drench the open-plan living area with sunlight and the area adjoins a gourmet kitchen dressed with stone benchtops and quality stainless steel appliances, where preparing meals for a growing family is a breeze.

Another huge asset of the home is its incredible storage space, at the rear of the remote double garage. This concreted space is ideal for your wine collection, tools, camping gear and sporting equipment.

Capping off this perfect find is the desirable location, which is only moments away from local schools, (Our Lady of the Pines Primary School, Milgate Primary School and Serpell Primary School among them), and is also near two secondary schools, the Eastern Freeway, bus services, parks and The Pines Shopping Centre.

Inspect and you will be very impressed.
