Behind a remote-controlled front security gate and set well back from the street for privacy, this stately and spacious home on a stunning 6000sq.m. block is sure to impress. The generous two storey home comprises 4 bedrooms, study, 3 bathrooms, 6 spacious living areas, tranquil alfresco & pool areas, a triple garage, plus a separate 12m x 6m workshop shed (allowing for 4-car undercover parking). This tranquil retreat is a mere 22km from the CBD, where you can easily escape from the hustle surrounded by beautiful trees, a regular koala & her baby and abundant birdlife, yet be conveniently close (200 metres) to shops, restaurants and school buses.
The moment you step inside, you'll be impressed with the feel of space, plus the high ceilings, zoned ducted air-conditioning and quality white louvred shutters throughout. The home flows well with a practical floor plan to accommodate everyone's needs and there's enough living space for the largest family. Starting at the entry foyer, there's a spacious home office (or 5th bedroom) to the right and to the left, you step down to a stylish lounge room boasting bay windows and a cosy fireplace. The classy kitchen, with a stone benchtop overlay, wide 5 burner gas cooktop, wall oven with separate grill, integrated dishwasher, plus a deep walk-in pantry is central to all downstairs living areas and overlooks the alfresco and pool areas. Opposite the kitchen on one side is the formal dining room, and on the other is a close-off theatre room featuring a ceiling mounted projector, retractable screen and surround speakers. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large open plan family room and a meals area with French doors opening onto to the alfresco and 10 metre pool (solar-heated). These outdoor areas are ultra-private, screened by established hedges / trees and enjoy, as do most indoor living areas, a perfect Northerly aspect for extra warmth in Winter and cooling breezes in Summer. Downstairs also offers a full 3rd bathroom, built-in laundry and huge triple garage.
The upper level also enjoys ducted-air conditioning through the large rumpus room (perfect for the kid's TV & games), and 4 spacious bedrooms. The generous "master suite" boasts a large bedroom area with French door access to the front deck, which is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee overlooking the property, or favourite drink whilst watching the sun go down. The master also boasts a large, customized walk-in robe (with lots of hanging and shelving) and a classy ensuite with luxury spa. The other three upstairs bedrooms are all generously sized, with built-in robes, all serviced by the stylish upstairs main bathroom (with spa bath and separate vestibule area).
Step outside, take a deep breath and enjoy a special moment in such beautiful surrounds. The outdoors and landscaping have been established to allow for enjoyable acreage living. This 6000 sq.m. property is securely gated and fenced (with a side vehicle gate on the western fence line), providing a safe haven for kids and dogs to run and play. There are large areas of level turf at the front of the home and behind the pool area, and plenty of shade for protection. The long concrete driveway from the front entry gates leads to the home, with a turning circle in front of the triple garage. Off this main driveway, there is a second driveway to the 12m x 6m workshop shed (with power and ample lighting), offering room for up to 4 cars or anything else you need to store undercover (caravan or camper, boat, bikes etc).
The property has a huge 10.6 KW solar electricity system (boasting 28 panels) with a 48 Volt battery storage unit that has reduced the average energy bill from approximately $1200 per quarter down to around $250 per quarter. This certainly minimises the cost of running such a large home with reverse cycle ducted air-conditioning and a large pool without enormous energy bills! The home is on town-water but also has a large 30,000 litre tank near the pool and two 5000 litre tanks near the shed.
One difference that will separate this home from most acreage properties is the super-convenient location. It's a mere 200 metre stroll via a walkway to your local Cashmere Village Shopping Centre where you'll find an IGA, bakery, coffee shop, bottle shop, chemist, gym, Indian & Thai takeaway and much more. Larger shopping centres can be found at Warner Village (a 6-minute drive) and Strathpine (a 10-minute drive). It's also a 10-minute drive to trains at the Strathpine "park & ride" with a 20km train ride to the CBD, and there are many school bus routes nearby.
This property has many extras not previously mentioned such as:
⢠Electric gate at the top of the driveway leading to the home, set well back from the street
⢠Intercom system (with gate opening function) from the front security gate
