On approach to 31 Prideaux Road, it is evident that this is a very special property.
With a backdrop of tall timbers on a 4257sqm corner block in Lower King, this classy, contemporary home is built of Colorbond in complementary shades of grey, with an angular roof and a huge shed at one end. And what the striking exterior of the home promises, the interior delivers in spades.
It was built in 2014 by discerning owners who invested in superior quality throughout, and included innovations and style to make everyday life a dream.
Through the glass-panelled front door is a wide entrance hall opening on to a generous, sunny living area, where big windows bring in a view over the lovely gardens, and high ceilings and polished bamboo flooring enhance the spacious, airy feel.
At one end is the kitchen. Here, a solid timber breakfast bar complements the quality cabinetry, and a wide electric oven, five-burner gas cooktop, dish drawer and adjoining walk-in pantry with abundant shelving will delight the family cook.
Lounge, dining and play zones in the big living room are heated by a centrally positioned wood-burning stove to keep the place cosy in winter. In summer, triple sliding glass doors can be opened right back to extend the space to the outside.
In addition to the comfortable lounge area is an impressive corner sunroom featuring a long window bench with storage drawers under, a perfect spot for the children or grandchildren to read or play and store their toys.
Up a step and separated from the dining area by a half-height wall is an office or computer room, which could easily be converted to a third bedroom.
At one end of the house is the bright and beautiful master suite. This spacious room has two built-in wardrobes, glass doors opening onto a private deck and a generous en suite bathroom with a rain shower.
The second bedroom at the opposite end is a double with built-in robes. This is next to a bathroom with shower, vanity and freestanding bath, a separate toilet and the well-appointed laundry.
Another major attraction of this home is the massive shed, with extensive workshop and storage areas. It's 12x10m with a high gable roof, two high-clearance doors at the front, and a concrete apron at the side, where another two doors open right back to take big vehicles or equipment.
This amazing shed will easily accommodate the boat, fifth-wheeler caravan and ute, in addition to all the usual family paraphernalia, with room to spare. For the family car, there's a garage with a remote-controlled door.
Outside, the well-planned gardens are neat enough to be a pleasure while not demanding constant attention.
Sliding doors at the back of the house open onto a big, dome-roofed deck, a favourite spot for family barbecues and summer entertaining.
Expansive lawns are scattered with natives such as bottlebrushes, jacarandas and flame trees, all attracting a variety of birdlife, and a freshwater creek at the boundary is the source of year-round reticulation.
There's also an orchard of citrus, pear, apple, peach, plum and fig trees, raised vegetable beds, a private area for afternoon shade at the front, a chook run, and a separate pad for a caravan.
All appointments inside and out have been carefully chosen to enhance the lifestyle this property brings, and quality has been a prime consideration in all of these choices.
A security system, solar panels, stylish blinds and floor coverings, sleek cabinetry and appealing decor are some of this home's many attributes.
