12 Bartrop Street, Reservoir, Vic 3073

Original in design, superior in its build quality and meticulous in detail and presentation, welcome to an unparalleled living experience inside this builder's own residence.

Offered to the market for the first time since built as new, it's difficult not to be impressed by the sheer quality of this strong and solid residence. The impressive list of credentials begins with its double driveway, which provides access into the large north-facing rear yard and flows right through every corner of the 47sq (approx.) custom residence, which has been crafted to an exacting standard on a fully landscaped 922sqm (approx.) block and features Tasmanian Oak skirting boards and architraves, stunning 2.7m high ceilings with wide decorative cornices, deluxe fully-tiled bathrooms, double brick footings, solid 40mm floorbase, insulated internal walls and ceilings, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, ducted vacuum, alarm system, intercom system, large laundry with custom-built cupboards and chute, double brick remote three-car garage with separate workshop, three-phase power and rear roller door, a huge amount of storage space and so much more.

A striking timber staircase with wrought iron balustrades provides a stunning backdrop against the elegant lounge that greets your arrival; venture up the wide and welcoming hallway and marvel at the grand open-plan living domain that instantly appeals. The large proportions of the meals area allows you to comfortably fit a 12-seated dining table, and if you love to cook and entertain at the same time, the presence of a quality custom timber kitchen with a walk-in pantry and direct access to the undercover outdoor entertaining area allows you to do so on a grand scale with ease.

During quieter times, fire up the coonara heater and enjoy the calming nature of the character-rich rumpus room, set beneath a pitched Tasmanian Oak timber ceiling with exposed Oregon beams that goes hand-in-hand with the double brick feature wall, or head outside and soak up the tranquillity of the large north-facing backyard dressed with lush established gardens.

The versatile nature of the upstairs retreat allows it to function as whatever you need it to be, and speaking of versatility, that also defines the large carport, which can be used to accommodate two additional cars, a boat, caravan, trailer or work vehicles or even be used as a second outdoor entertaining area ? so many options!

Three large bedrooms (master with twin walk-in robes and full ensuite) and a deluxe spa family bathroom are zoned in privacy upstairs, while a fourth bedroom (with built-in robes) downstairs is ideal for those with multi-generational living requirements.

An easy walk to the No.558 bus, Cotchin Reserve and nearby wetlands with walking tracks and minutes to scenic Edwardes Lake, St Joseph The Worker Primary School, Ruthven train station, Reservoir Village shops and cafes and the Metropolitan Ring Road, this feature-packed residence evidently belongs to an elite class of living.
