A delight inside and out, this thoughtfully designed one owner residence has served its time as a wonderful family home and showcases a spacious north facing orientation for light bathed interiors with serene garden glances from every room. Wrapped by over half an acre of exotic gardens with an eclectic mix of natives, European classics and a mini orchard, the property is serenely poised at the end of a battleaxe block in its own private Idaho.
The heart of the home is the CaesarStone kitchen, equipped with stainless-steel appliances, appliance hutch and a breakfast island, perfect for culinary enthusiasts and entertainers. Adjoining the kitchen is the family/meals area with a cosy Morso wood heater, providing warmth, charm and a relaxed ambience that radiates throughout the home. Additionally, there is a spacious sun-kissed lounge and a rumpus room, offering multiple living spaces for the largest of families to spread their wings as well as entertain.
The grand master suite, located at the entrance, features floor-skimming windows, a walk-in robe, and a modern ensuite with plenty of retreat space as well as a crackling wood fireplace so you can enjoy the serene glow of flickering flames from under the covers. Two additional bedrooms are situated in a rear wing, while a versatile fourth bedroom or home office is positioned opposite the master. Timber engineered spotted gum floors and terracotta tiles add elegance and continuity throughout the home and the family bathroom delivers with chic finishes and a relaxing bathtub.
Outdoor living is a highlight, with an all-season alfresco deck at the front and a paved patio overlooking lush gardens with a pond. A flexible covered area at the rear is perfect for parties, table tennis, or extra storage.
Lush blankets of lawn for child’s play are framed by flourishing gardens, including an enclosed vegetable garden, herbs, and a variety of fruit trees, creating a garden paradise and a foray into self-sufficiency.
Practical features include a double garage with shelving and workshop space, along with plenty of off-street parking, with room for a caravan or a boat.
