Exceedingly attractive and very spacious, this 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom harmoniously combines Federation and Queenslander elements. Occupying 843.1sqm approx of perfectly flat land, the home has two levels of self-contained living and off-street parking for five cars (one being a single garage). Upstairs is the main family home with twin king bedrooms, a queen bedroom, a large and beautiful 3-way bathroom, walk-in linen press, massive lounge and dining room open plan to a gas kitchen and opening out to the back verandah. Two bedrooms open through French doors onto the front verandah. The apartment downstairs has a large eat-in kitchen, full bathroom, linen press, loungeroom, a single bed room and a queen bedroom with french doors opening out to an undercover patio and a huge level backyard. Four bedrooms have good built-ins. Charming views through a grand old date palm and equally majestic oak tree through to open skies and hilltops give a quality of endless space to the house. The home also has 3 R/C split air-conditioners and 3 gas outlets being both lounge rooms and the BBQ deck. The warm light gold of polished cypress floorboards in the upper living room and floating floors downstairs add to the open, clean and light feeling of this wonderful home. The 3-way bathroom has traditional elements such as a freestanding slipper bath, gorgeous antique style vanity and coloured leadlight windows as well as a modern semi-frameless shower and separate toilet. The single garage has a workshop area at one end, two store rooms and the laundry. Impeccably decorated, even the wall paint in Whisper White' echoes the sentiment of the home, that of quiet, peace and a country style ambience. The location has a friendly, unhurried, honest approach to life which values kids being able to walk to the train and the school (both about 7 minutes away) and play and ride their bikes safely around the streets. Access at the end of the street to the Benowie Walking Track, which joins the Great North Walk. Another picturesque walk is to Apple Tree Bay. There are so many great boating and fishing spots all in easy reach at Bobbin Head, Berowra Waters and Brooklyn and the Hawkesbury River. Foxglove oval is well maintained and hosts a number of sports. Asquith Golf Club and Mills Park Tennis Centre are popular too. Large supermarkets and modern shops with easy parking are at Asquith and Berowra, and you are still convenient to Hornsby for fabulous city quality infrastructure.
