Elevated on a large 814.5m2 corner block, this wonderful residence has stunning views and is only a minute's walk to the river that boasts a beautiful walking/bike path all the way into the centre of Queanbeyan.
With a versatile floor plan, the home offers plenty of living space, including a formal entrance, lounge and dining room plus an additional open plan area ideal as a second living or study.
The kitchen is huge with plenty of cupboard and bench space, dishwasher, a stainless steel oven and a 4 burner gas hotplate.
A huge room off the garage is currently used as a workshop but could be used as a rumpus/studio or a home office. With its raked ceiling and cleverly designed shutter system, it would also make a perfect entertaining area opening out onto the paved courtyard with shade sails.
Lots of options!
There are four bedrooms, each with a built-in wardrobe.
The master bedroom has an ensuite and the main bathroom is spacious with a bath.
There is also a separate laundry with a benchtop and cupboards for additional storage.
Freshly painted in a soft cream palette, combined with quality brickwork feature walls and brand new carpet, the home boasts an expanse of floor to ceiling windows along the front of the house, providing plenty of natural light.
With its Northern orientation, the morning sun floods into the front rooms and onto the slate floor heat bank, that helps retain the solar heat in the Winter months. There is also a slow combustion wood heater in the family room providing a wonderful ambience on those winter nights.
The home includes ceiling vents/fan to bring in the warm air from the roof space into the house reducing the cost of heating even more! Plus, there's a reverse cycle split air conditioner in the main living area providing both heating and cooling .
Hot water wise, make the most of the solar hart hot water system, augmented by the fireplace which preheats the water delivered to the solar hot water tank. It has an electric booster for those cloudier days.
Further reduce your electricity costs with the 9 solar panels on the roof providing 2kw back to the grid. For once you might enjoy receiving the electricity bill each quarter!
Car accommodation wise, there's a double garage with an automatic door and internal access plus there's plenty of street parking available.
Extensive landscaping provides a lovely blend of paved courtyards, retaining walls, plenty of greenery including an apple tree, bay tree and herbs including sage, parsley, thyme and rosemary.
Vegetable/flower boxes are positioned along the driveway ready for planting.
Location wise, you can't get better, River Drive is well known for its proximity to the river and its quality residences and we don't expect this one to last on the market too long!
