5 Glencoy Close, Ashtonfield NSW 2323

First time on the market, this site specific home designed by the current owners takes full advantage of the elevation and aspect. The north facing home at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac saves the most impressive feature for last.

To the rear of the dwelling, a fully covered, raised timber deck enjoys leafy panoramic views. A bush reserve unfolds from the back of the lower streets right out to Mount Sugarloaf and surrounding ridgelines. Observe the changing conditions throughout the day from misty morning cloud cover to vibrant sunset scenes.

The sloping site is also used to increase floor area with additional lower space created under the home. The extra room, accessed by a wide roller door is currently used for a gym. This versatile space can be easily transformed depending on whats required.

The surrounding yard is fully enclosed and gated, perfect for children and pets to safely play outdoors. A selection of fruit trees are well established yielding healthy tasty snacks right off the branch.

Harnessing maximum curb appeal, the landscaped yard, professionally designed by Garden Vogue is neatly arranged and easy to maintain. Various textures and colours of established flowering and native trees attractively disguise fence lines and visually expand the perceived size of the yard.

The home is presented in a timelessly stylish rendered finish with cedar framed windows to the facade. The front verandah joins the central portico entry decorated with simple fretwork in a nod to traditional Australian Federation architecture.

Multiple living areas comfortably accommodate a busy family lifestyle. A central open plan kitchen and living area is at the heart of the home. Functional as it is stylish, all stainless steel Westinghouse appliances include the dishwasher, gas cooktop, rangehood and wall oven. The U shaped benchtop offers plenty of preparation and storage space whist doubling as a breakfast bar along one side.

The adjacent dining area opens out onto the rear deck, perfect for outdoor meals and casual entertaining. A family room extends to the east, opposite to this and double doors enclose the home theatre for privacy so you can enjoy your favourite films without interruption.

Polished Bluegum Select floorboards used in the shared areas are preferred for their practical durability and a classic aesthetic.

A bedroom wing in the north east corner is composed of three large childrens bedrooms, all with built-in cupboards and ceiling fans. A central study nook links the bedrooms and main bathroom whilst providing a quiet breakout space away from distractions. The main three way bathroom is a functional solution for a busy family.

The secluded master bedroom is on the opposite side of the home and has a sizeable walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite. There is also an adjacent private study that could be used for a number of different purposes.

Additional appealing features include ducted multi zone air conditioning, internal access to large double garage, a 16 PV panel rooftop solar system, a large water tank under the home connected to the automatic irrigation system, a Foxtel satellite dish and finally a light neutral colour palette that is easy to work your own style in with.

This address is close to key regional infrastructure such as access to the M1 Motorway linking to Sydney in under two hours. Join the intersecting Hunter Expressway to Singleton in around 45 minutes, or visit one of the world class restaurants around Hunter Wine Country on the way. In the opposite direction, 30 minutes along the New England Highway will deliver you to one of a number of Newcastles beaches or trendy cafes.

Walk to the Hunter Valley Grammar School or to Stockland Greenhills Shopping Centre, currently undergoing a $4.12 million upgrade. There are also parks and other recreational activities dotted about Ashtonfield, regarded as a family friendly neighbourhood with an established community.
