5 Althea Place, Doncaster VIC 3108

On occasion, a home appears on the market that is distinctly positioned in a league of its own; a home crafted to perfection and presented in such a refined and immaculate manner that it transcends conventional living. This breathtaking family entertainer is one such home.

Nestled among manicured gardens on a low-maintenance 780sqm (approx.) block in the bowl of a peaceful court, one lucky family therefore has the chance to secure one of Doncaster’s most picturesque and captivating homes.

As you’d expect from such a lovingly-maintained, tightly-held home, high-end finishes selected for quality and durability are omnipresent throughout the striking three-level layout, which enhance the living experience throughout the five bedrooms, four living zones and three modern bathrooms.

A central hedge-lined front path feeds into the home’s striking entry, which successfully separates the versatile guest bedroom/study from the opulent fireside formal living and dining room.

Sleek minimalist aesthetics offset by verdant aspects inject the porcelain-tiled open-plan living/dining zone with a sophisticated edge; two-pack cabinetry, Smeg stainless steel appliances and granite surfaces highlight the exceptional quality and functionality of the north-facing entertainer’s kitchen.

Speaking of entertaining, you’ll be doing plenty of that once lockdown restrictions ease thanks to the seamless flow between the central living domain and all-seasons alfresco. And with an in-ground swimming pool enjoying pride of place in the paved (and therefore very low maintenance) backyard, it’s the ultimate entertainer’s playground.

During quieter times, curl up in front of the family room’s gas log fireplace and ease the tensions of the day, while a theatre room downstairs, the ideal teenager’s retreat or living quarters for extended family members.

Four spacious bedrooms (master with ensuite and walk-in-robe) and a central family bathroom are zoned in privacy upstairs; this high-quality family upgrade also features heaps of storage space, large cellar, huge workshop, feature garden lighting, double garage (with extra high doors and drive-through access into the backyard), ducted heating, ducted vacuum, reverse cycle and evaporative cooling, Spotted Gum timber floorboards, alarm and more.

Conveniently located within walking distance of Ruffey Lake Park and transport and only minutes to Aquarena Aquatic and Leisure Centre, Westfield Doncaster, schools and the Eastern Freeway.
