Few things are guaranteed in life, however tranquillity, serenity and contemporary luxury are pretty much assured with this tropics-inspired five-bedroom family entertainer.
Blending a timeless Merchant Builder clinker brick ground-floor design with a well-built, expansive and functional extension upstairs that comfortably accommodates four robed bedrooms (one with private balcony and two-way bathroom access), this versatile home is designed to adapt to any living requirement you throw at it.
Have a responsibility of looking after the in-laws? No worries. The versatile nature of the huge downstairs master bedroom (with walk-in robes and ensuite) presents outstanding accommodation for extended family members. And if you run a business from home, the room's separate entry allows you to convert it into a sensational home office.
Modernised with high quality and comfort in mind and dressed with a smart contemporary character, this home for all seasons also delights with its ability to offer a superior standard of living all year long. An alluring open fireplace gives the fantastic family living a Chalet-type persona, yet it transforms into an indoor-outdoor entertaining haven as soon as the sun begins to shine given its integration with a large private brick paved courtyard (amidst formal gardens and hedges) and access to a solar-heated swimming pool with cascading waterfall feature inspired by the owner's love of the island Maui in Hawaii.
If it's not already, cooking will become a favourite hobby with an excellent kitchen at your service, while this feature-packed family sanctuary also enjoys the benefits of a private 700sqm (approx.) allotment, in-floor cleaning system to the swimming pool, two split-system units, evaporative cooling, gas heating, pristine bathrooms, abundant natural light, warm timber parquetry floors, generous storage options, workshop/storeroom and a double carport.
The appeal of the home also extends to its desirable location, which enjoys convenient access to Templestowe Valley Primary School, preschools, Manningham Toy Library, parkland, Templestowe Village, Bulleen Plaza and the Eastern Freeway.
This home is, quite clearly, the perfect package.
