If ever there was a home that was all about lifestyle, this is it. Only a short stroll to Ruffey Lake Park, Westfield Shoppingtown and Aquarena Leisure Centre, and complete with two spacious living areas, five generous-sized bedrooms and excellent outdoor entertaining, this is a home that has “happily ever after” written all over it!
Whilst the neighbourhood specialises in peace and quiet, it offers convenient access to some of the area's best dining spots, from Templestowe Village and Macedon Square to the trendy Donburn shopping strip and, of course, Westfield Shoppingtown. Children are well served by the close proximity of parks, sporting reserves and local schools (St Gregory The Great Primary School, Doncaster Primary School, Serpell Primary School and Templestowe College, among them), and for the city commuter, fantastic access to city-bound buses and the Eastern Freeway adds further appeal. Access to Aquarena Leisure Centre is also a breeze - simply head through the rear door of the back fence and enjoy the shortest of strolls. Talk about having the best of Manningham at your fingertips!
The home is equally impressive, nestled on a full-size block that's as low maintenance as they come, courtesy of its easy-care landscaped gardens and use of synthetic grass in the backyard. That means you can spend less time gardening and more time enjoying a coveted Manningham family lifestyle.
Zoned living positions all bedrooms (Master with elevated study, walk-in robes and ensuite) on a private wing, which can be closed off whilst entertaining so as not to disturb the kids at bedtime. And with two outdoor entertaining areas to choose from, chances are you'll be playing the grand host more often than not!
A refined sense of class and elegance characterises the welcoming formal lounge on entry, which extends onto a sizeable covered alfresco to create a seamless indoor-outdoor arrangement suitable for large gatherings. Space and quality, meanwhile, are hallmarks of the updated kitchen, styled with stone benchtops, quality appliances and abundant storage.
Furthermore, this first-class home also enjoys the benefits of warm timber floors, high ceilings, plenty of natural light, split-system cooling and gas heating.
