In a quiet cul-de-sac position high above the river, marked by birdsong and the gentle rustle of trees in the breeze, a serene family home offers the chance to join this prestigious neighbourhood. Nearby walking and cycling tracks curve around the river banks to Bicton Baths and Quarantine Park, or through native bushland along the Blackwall Reach cliffs to Point Walter – and there's easy access to shops, cafés or a host of excellent local schools including Bicton Primary, Mel Maria Primary and Santa Maria College.
Beyond the wide green verge, a white picket fence and country-style front garden guides you towards this immaculately maintained 90s brick-and-tile – with future scope to add your own touches or simply enjoy as is. Inside, the tiled entranceway divides two carpeted zones, one an ideal study nook that leads to the kitchen, the other a sunken lounge, and each with a lovely bay window to enjoy the garden outlook. Continue through to the master bedroom with a wall of built-in-robes, ceiling fan, ensuite and sliding door 'window' – securely screened behind sliding plantation shutters, that reveals refreshing breezeways from the airy elevation of this block.
The heart of the home exudes an atmosphere of total tranquillity with leafy outlooks everywhere. There's a central built-in gas fireplace by the dining area, and the kitchen is well appointed with stainless steel appliances, large pantry, and shopper's entry to the secure carport. Sliding doors lead to a pitched roof alfresco surrounded by greenery cascading down the high limestone walls, it really feels as though you're hidden away in a private outdoor oasis.
In their own separate wing, you'll find two more bedrooms (each with ceiling fans, oak-style floorboards and built-in-robes), a bright bathroom with separate WC, and large laundry with external access to a drying courtyard down the side.
This is a lovely riverside haven, up high in a curving cul-de-sac – peaceful, private and perfectly positioned to enjoy everything this delightful suburb has to offer.
