Well secluded behind a wall of lush greenery on a breathtaking park-like acre (approx.) block hides this lifestyle-enriching four-bedroom Harkaway Home, which provides the growing family with their own piece of botanic heaven in a private Park Orchards enclave.
A smart six-star energy-rated single-level design reflects the home’s commitment to the environment, while extensive use of double-glazed glass ensures a constant stream of natural light fills the home and a soothing garden view plus direct outdoor access is a feature of most rooms.
Get up close to nature with a scenic stroll through the instantly calming Japanese-inspired bamboo walk progressing to a serene frog pond and soothing fernery, or admire her natural beauty from a distance as you enjoy a freshly brewed coffee or glass of chardonnay on the wraparound verandah that accentuates the home’s country-style character and tranquillity.
Beautiful 3m high ceilings and French doors opening onto the large verandah enhance the feeling of space throughout the bright and beautiful fireside open-plan living domain and separate formal living area, while a two-pack entertainer’s kitchen with a handcrafted 2.4m red gum-topped island bench is a fitting centrepiece in this communal lifestyle hub.
Two spacious bedrooms and two family-sized bathrooms (main bathroom with a luxurious spa bath) in the main residence offer a superior standard of comfort and relaxation away from the daily grind, while a large home office is the in-demand feature all home-based workers crave. A further two bedrooms, large rumpus and bathroom accessed via a sun-kissed mudroom combine to present private quarters for teenagers or extended family members.
An intelligent lawn-free design translates into low-maintenance living for the active family, while a fabulous display of hydrangeas, daffodils, irises, crab apple, mulberry, ornamental pear trees and a cluster of fruit trees add another layer of aesthetic appeal.
Furthermore, this unique lifestyle sanctuary also features a separate laundry with red gum bench and storage cabinetry, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, wool carpets, abundant storage, 23,500-litre water tank storage capacity, a two-car garage and dual gated access into the property.
Conveniently located within moments of elite private schools, bus services, scenic parks, Eastland and Ringwood North shopping centres, Eastlink and Ringwood train station, local wineries, sporting facilities and the Eastern Freeway/Eastlink.
