This substantial and character-filled family home promises a peaceful existence perfect for those seeking a change of pace and enough room for all the family whether it’s extended, in-laws or adult children who are yet to fly the coop. Set in a whisper-quiet street where privacy and solitude are in abundance – the only peak hour rush you will experience is when the postie does his rounds.

This well-designed home is big on space and has zoned living so everyone can spread out and do their own thing yet congregate for meal time in the open plan living zone or for conversation around the breakfast bar. The warm and welcoming lounge has a cosy Coonara wood fire and is a relaxing space to unwind. The adjacent kitchen and meals zone with gleaming polished floorboards is well equipped with stainless steel appliances and dishwasher and ample bench and cupboard space in addition to a deluxe walk in pantry. Additionally, there is a large rumpus space at the back of the home ideal for the kids to spend time with friends.

The accommodation is spacious and plentiful with a huge master retreat at the front of the home with ensuite and luxurious spa bath and access to the shady front verandah. Adjacent is a study and there are a further five bedrooms in a separate wing that share a central bathroom that houses a separate shower room and toilet. Situated on the lower level are two versatile living spaces depending on your lifestyle needs but could be used as a home office, gym, studio or extended family accommodation as one is complete with bathroom and kitchen facilities.

Whether it’s lazing around the solar heated pool, entertaining on the alfresco deck or exploring the glorious acreage dotted with natives and traditional gums, the outdoor spaces offer something for everyone with a back creek your rear boundary for added tranquillity.

Additional highlights include a huge triple garage, off-street parking, lockable storage room underneath the house, four water tanks, sprinkler system on the roof, solar panels, Foxtel connections (including in bungalow), sensor lights, under house storage, external sun blinds, security system and ducted heating and evaporative cooling for seasonal comfort.
