34 Rooney Street, Templestowe Lower VIC 3107

Situated high on the hill on a corner allotment with sweeping views to the city skyline, this rendered brick 5 bedroom home presents an exceptional opportunity for a large or growing family to have all the space they need, with defined zones for living, entertaining and sleeping.
The ground floor, which is devoted to living space, flows easily between the formal living and dining room just off the entry foyer to a huge open plan family room and casual dining space. Overlooking this space is a big kitchen with wide island bench/breakfast bar with pendant lighting, step in pantry, modern appliances including 5 burner cooktop, tiled splashback and loads of storage space. The home is perfect for year-round living and entertaining with both wood fired and gas heaters plus reverse cycle air conditioning; opening out on one side to an elevated and private alfresco deck and on the other to a private paved courtyard. The ground floor also incorporates a big laundry and utility room behind the family room and then steps up to a landing which accommodates a private study with balcony at one end and a bathroom at the other. A flight of stairs descends from the landing to a lower level retreat and gym room plus access to sub-floor storage/workshop space.
The stairs that lead up from the foyer to the upper level open onto another huge living or family room with study nook and reverse cycle air conditioning which is surrounded on three sides by bedrooms. The enormous master with its own air conditioning unit is to the front with an ensuite bathroom and walk-through robe which leads to another room with a private balcony which could double as either a parents retreat or nursery bedroom. Three further double bedrooms all have built-in robes and are served by a big family size bathroom with dual vanity and spa bath plus a separate toilet.
There is also ducted heating, a security system, polished hardwood flooring, low maintenance garden and a double auto garage with direct internal access. Ideally located close to Macedon Plaza Shopping Centre, Templestowe Heights and Templestowe Valley Primary Schools, Templestowe College and with easy access to Westfield Doncaster and the Eastern Freeway.
