Boasting a fresh & comprehensive refurbishment of meticulous proportions with absolutely no expense spared; this stunning "Georgian" style executive family home complete with self-contained one bedroom studio under the main roof offers luxurious living with the added enticement of a picturesque setting adjacent a tranquil natural reserve within sought-after "Wicks Estate".
Upon entering this magnificent home, you'll be struck by an overwhelming attraction to the sheer appointment & level of detail exhibited throughout. Ornate ceiling roses & cornices, crisp porcelain tiles, granite, 2-pac finishes, high quality floor coverings & window treatments, & generously sized rooms throughout are just some of the many jewels to found in this home. When built, this by no means would have been an inexpensive home to build, which is reflected in the obvious quality & finish to be found throughout. This stunning, well appointed, functional executive family home offers a beautiful blend of carefully considered sophistication with a well designed & equipped floor plan to make living here an absolute pleasure. A beautiful blend of style, comfort, function, & subtle opulence.
A clever design not only offers superior accommodation & a multitude of separate living areas; but conveniently incorporates a valuable self-contained one bedroom studio under the main roof. Be it guest accommodation, or put to use as a fantastic fully-equipped rumpus/games room; this again is one of many notable highlights of this brilliant home.
A grand porcelain tiled lobby at the entrance of the home acts as a partition to divide the generous separate formal lounge & meals/family rooms, whilst the kitchen is intelligently placed between the separate meals & formal dining rooms. Upstairs the king-size master bedroom offers substantial storage by way of a quality built-in robe & walk-through robe leading to a remodelled ensuite with dual vanity and crisp floor to ceiling tiles. The remaining bedrooms are all spacious & also benefit from quality built in robes.
Situated immediately above the garage, a clever self-contained one bedroom studio featuring its own kitchen, bathroom & split-system air-conditioner provides the lucky buyer with any number of possible uses, otherwise adding significant benefit to an already feature-packed floor plan with an appointment second to none.
Externally, the property is immaculately presented, whilst a landscaped rear yard & paved outdoor entertaining area with an expansive near-new colourbond pergola provides an attractive & well-equipped area in which to enjoy year-round outdoor entertaining; & with the warm weather upon us, what better way to enjoy it than a BBQ on a balmy summer's evening with friends & family.
