Hidden delights abound behind the welcoming facade of this wonderful family home. On entry, you find yourself in the sunlit living room with polished timber floors, romantic open fireplace, and French doors out to a sheltered seating area. To one side is the combined mudroom and bathroom.

Continuing down the hallway there are four bedrooms, each having its own charming aspect and all but one with built-in robes. The third bedroom has French doors out to the deck overlooking the garden for morning coffee in the sunshine.
The second bathroom is centrally located with a bath, shower over, and WC. Hidden from view is the compact European laundry.

The rear of the home opens up to the great room containing a wonderful light, bright, retro-themed kitchen with hot pink cabinetry, spacious dining and family area with arched vaulted ceilings, and exposed timber beams. The retro vibe is enhanced by polished timber floors and windows that surround all three sides of the room. It's the heart of the home!

An elevated timber deck leads you out into the wonderland that is the garden, established for over 20 years; there are winding paths, mature shade trees, and hidden spots to sit out and enjoy. Set to the east side is a big studio, with its own verandah looking across the garden. It is the perfect spot for a home-based business or extra accommodation for guests. There are prolific vegetable boxes and fruit trees surrounded by flowering ornamentals, green lawns, and bulbs. A fire pit, undercover outdoor room and bbq area, children's play area, chook run, and spacious cubby house are dotted over this deep 1400sqm block.

There are ceiling fans and low energy lighting throughout, ducted gas heating and split systems for summer, great internet speed, energy efficient tinted windows and ceiling, wall and under floor insulation. Multiple water tanks catch rain for use in the garden and there is also a gravity fed grey water system. The home garage has entry directly from the street and there is the option of off-street parking if desired.

A four-minute drive to the town centre and walking distance to childcare, and primary school and you are on the right side of town for the Steiner school. This warm and welcoming family home is just waiting for you to move in!
