There are some homes in Winthrop that feel bigger than their address.
This is one of them.
Set on a prominent corner beside Winthrop Primary and surrounded by established, mature trees, this is a home that has always had presence. Fully fenced with gated entry, it sits quietly confident in its setting, offering privacy, scale, and a sense of permanence that is increasingly hard to find.
When this home was designed, the tape measure was clearly optional.
Room sizes are oversized throughout, ceilings rise well above standard height, and the layout has been planned with both family life and longevity in mind. There is space to come together, and just as importantly, space to retreat.
The ground floor unfolds into multiple, clearly defined living zones. A formal lounge and dining area sit near the entry, while the heart of the home opens into a large central living and games zone, complete with built-in bar and direct connection to the alfresco. This is a home designed for hosting, for celebrations, and for everyday life that spills easily between indoors and out.
The kitchen is positioned perfectly between the meals area and the main living spaces, generous in scale and functionality, with walk-in pantry and excellent sightlines across the home. It is completely liveable as is, yet offers enormous scope for transformation into something truly exceptional for those looking to modernise and add value.
Accommodation on the ground floor is substantial. The master suite is privately positioned with walk-in robe and ensuite, while three additional oversized bedrooms, plus a separate study or fifth bedroom, are serviced by a central bathroom and separate laundry. This flexibility is ideal for growing families, multi-generational living, or those working from home.
And then there is upstairs.
A huge second-storey retreat spans the entire upper level, measuring an impressive 7.4 by 9.8 metres. This is not a token activity room. This is a genuine blank canvas. Games room, studio, teenage retreat, or with the addition of a bathroom, an extraordinary parents' sanctuary that would rival anything being built today. The scale, ceiling height and separation make it one of the home's most compelling features.
Outside, the property continues to overdeliver. There is ample room for a swimming pool, established gardens supported by bore-fed automatic reticulation, and multiple outdoor areas to enjoy throughout the day. The double garage includes additional workshop space or room for a small vehicle or trailer, while practical upgrades such as three-phase power and solar panels add long-term value.
This home has been exceptionally well maintained and cherished over many years. It presents in excellent condition, ready to move into now, while offering outstanding potential for those with vision to elevate it further. The current owner is downsizing, creating a rare opportunity to secure a substantial Winthrop home with genuine upside.

Well maintained, thoughtfully designed, and ready for its next chapter.
Viewing will not disappoint.
