10 minutes from Tea Tree Gully and the major shopping centre at Tea Tree Plaza, you can enjoy rural living on a 2.2 acre (8952m2) block, with views across the hills, in a 4 bedroom home with entertainment area overlooking the pool.
LAND: This property is ideal for someone who wants ‘rural living’ within close proximity of the city and local services. The block of land rises upwards from the main road, with easy access via a sealed driveway and with many native and deciduous trees which provide effective screening for privacy and, at the same time, act as a buffer from traffic noise. At the end of the driveway, to your right, is a large old gum inviting you to climb its strong branches or sit on the swing to relax. A couple of palms placed around the pool give the feeling of a tropical holiday home, especially on a sunny day. Behind the house is the perfect place for the children to play on the grass, or to have a few pets to keep you company. On the opposite side of the house are the fruit trees, which provide almost year round produce for the whole family and include Lemon, Lime, Ruby Grapefruit, Orange, Apricot, Cherry, Nectarine, Fig, Avocado trees, a Passionfruit Vine and a Mulberry bush. A vegetable patch close to the house invites the keen gardener and cook to plant a healthy choice of herbs and veggies. This property provides the perfect blend of weekend exercise through mowing lawns, gardening, pruning, picking fruit or relaxing under the shade of a tree, a dip in the pool, or simply enjoying the peaceful setting and views.
RESIDENCE: The house is set almost in the middle of the block on a levelled site. A double carport to the left and in front of the house, as well as a double garage, provide ample parking for the family and visitors. Entry to the home is via the family room, with the kitchen adjoining to the left, both overlooking the pool and covered entertainment deck. Opposite the family room is bedroom number 4, with the main bathroom to its right. Bedrooms 2 and 3, both with BIR, are situated at the right end of the house. From the kitchen, to the left, is the L-shaped dining and lounge area with separate study. A raked timber ceiling provides an interesting focal point and the view from the large windows is towards the trees and hills. The laundry with built-in storage cupboards and a separate toilet are opposite the kitchen, with access to the rear veranda. An extra room is at the back of the house, accessed either from the lounge or the passage leading to the laundry, it is currently set up as a Master bedroom; it could also be used as a rumpus room. The main bathroom has had a recent modern make-over with a new floor and wall tiles, a skylight, a freestanding bathtub, a single vanity and a frameless shower. The kitchen, in the centre of the house, provides basic cooking facilities with an electric cooktop and wall oven. The double garage under the main roof with concrete floor and power, could easily be converted to more living space, if required. Heating and cooling are provided via two RC A/C wall units (in the Master bedroom and the lounge), two combustion heaters and ceiling fans in bedrooms 2, 4 and the lounge and family rooms. This house is perfectly situated to oversee activities around the entertainment deck and pool and to capture the wonderful green views across the tree tops to the hills across the valley.
IMPROVEMENTS: There is a fully fenced, above ground, chlorinated pool, with a timber decking entertainment area, towards the house. A garden shed, next to the pool, provides storage area for pool equipment as well as garden tools. Further up on the hill is another tool shed. A retaining wall at the back of the house with the wide paved veranda gives a clean low maintenance finish. Whilst mains water is available, a 40,000L concrete rainwater tank plumbed to the house, provides a low cost water supply. The property is fully fenced with front and back fences recently replaced and a secure manual gate. For further details please contact our office on 8280 0033.
