If you are looking for a well located, executive, family home just moments from the freeway then your search could be over with this two storey stunner. It's modern it's bright and it ticks all the boxes for a discerning purchaser.
From approach via the gravel driveway, leading to the remote control double garage at the ground floor, this house has great street appeal with a lovely contemporary rendered finish. The central entrance hallway with its Sydney blue gum floors
welcomes you into its elegant foyer. You will be impressed by the quality fittings and finishes that greet you at every turn. To the left of the entry foyer is the formal and elegant sitting room complete with down lights, neutral, light coloured carpets and traditional, elegant drapes dressing the sunny twin windows. Double doors from this room open to reveal a very generous study, perfect for the home office or even a guest bedroom if required.
Double doors lead from the entry into the large open plan flowing family area where the kitchen, dining room and lounge create a light and airy space. The hardwood floors in the entry are carried through to this area and are combined with French doors and extensive windows running the length of this huge room, giving a sense of breezy, casual elegance. The U-shaped kitchen has all the mod cons you would expect in a house of this calibre â& amp;acirc;?¬& amp;acirc;?? a walk-in pantry, acres of bench space including a breakfast bar, integrated Miele dishwasher, Miele oven and ceramic stove top. You will love the storage this kitchen offers and if you still want more, there is the added bonus of a huge under-stair walk-in storage cupboard.
The adjacent dining area has room for a large dining table and enjoys view from the French doors over the garden. The sitting area is set around a cosy combustion fire and this whole open plan area is bright and inviting. The downstairs accommodation is serviced by a powder room, wc and laundry neatly tucked away to one side.
The French doors open onto a flat, grassed and paved terrace perfect for entertaining as it overlooks the expansive garden below. The garden benefits from sensible design and there are already some lovely well established garden beds filled with flowering plants as well as a number of fruit trees, such as cherry and three types of apple tree. By adding a few of your own touches, this garden, with its far reaching treetop views, could become an even more a lush hills haven. Steps from the patio terrace lead to the lower terrace including a large lawn area, great for kids, dogs and entertaining. You will also find a handy garden shed tucked away.
The second level of this home features even more space and great open plan design. Atop the stairs is a handy third sitting room, which could be used as a play room or extra study area. With lovely French doors opening out onto a balcony overlooking the front yard, the light and airy design of the ground floor is carried through to this level. There are three generously proportioned bedrooms on this level, a huge double linen press, the master bedroom with ensuite and the main family bathroom. With neutral carpet and decor throughout this level is functional and bright. Bedrooms two and three have built in robes whilst the large master bedroom has an enormous walk in wardrobe and one of the biggest en suite bathrooms you will see! With warm neutral tones this room will not date and has a luxurious feel. The master suite also enjoys large windows overlooking the front yard and has its own direct access onto the balcony. This is the perfect spot for sipping a glass of wine at the end of the day, listening to the birds and looking for koalas.
The family bathroom has the same warm toned neutral tiles and features a deep bath and separate shower.
The entire house benefits from reverse cycle, ducted air conditioning, tonnes of storage and quality fittings. Plantation style venetian blinds throughout the home give it a relaxed, contemporary styling which is sure to appeal.
This house also boasts some wonderful features including a massive rainwater harvesting system, gutter guards and a bushfire protection watering system which is connected to the roof, allowing a fountain of water to mushroom over the rooftop in times of need. This careful planning by the owners gives the potential purchaser peace of mind unlikely to be matched by other properties.
