Considered the premium part of Modbury North with its blossom filled streets, playground and park, Carruthers Drive has a family friendly village vibe with a renowned Christmas lights display!
Flexibility in a floor plan is crucial as your family and their needs change. There is a lot of house here, some 10+ rooms spread over two levels with up to 5 bedrooms all with storage. If you utilise all 5 bedrooms, you still have a study, 2 living zones, 3 bathrooms, an amazing main kitchen, second floor kitchenette, separate dining, laundry with storage and an over sized double garage with auto doors ... and that's just inside.
Outside, there's lots of covered living space for all weather entertaining with a beautiful timber deck, a powered tool shed, smaller garden shed, lush lawns, low maintenance established gardens, raised beds and a handy rear gate for easy access to the bus stops on McIntyre Road.

- public bus transport is as easy as walking through your backyard gate to the stops on McIntyre, or head to Milne Road for an alternative route- you can bus it, cycle or drive to the bus interchanges at Modbury or Golden Grove to 'park and ride' the OBahn to the City and beyond
- Civic Park with its play equipment and open space is a great spot to take the kids and pets for fun- there are plenty of medical facilities in this location including the expanded Modbury Hospital

Every home has its highlights and for me they are the truly flexible floor plan with generational zoning options, extraordinary amounts of built in storage, the huge kitchen, excellent outdoor spaces, off street parking for 6 or more, in an outstanding family friendly location.
