Invoking an immediate and enchanting sense of 'English cottage' charm, this nine year young period inspired residence, displaying an immaculate streetscape upon a manicured, easily managed allotment of 559sqm (approx.), is simply breathtaking.
Impeccably crafted with only the finest quality fixtures, fittings and finishes used inside and out,
and a flawless facade showcasing ornamental finials to the gabled rooflines, decorative fixed colourbond awnings, multi-light windows and an inviting, north facing verandah embellished with timber fretwork; everything about this magnificent abode will immediately captivate.
A beautiful yet functional home, step inside and be immediately entranced by lofty 9-foot ceilings, rich gleaming Western Australia Karri hardwood floors, decorative corbels and a lengthy hallway adorned with ornamental timber fretwork.
Ornate ceiling roses and embossed cornices add elegance to the capacious formal lounge and dining room, providing a serene escape infused with natural light via large north facing windows. Culminating at the end of the hall resides the immense, open plan family and meals space boasting a plethora of large windows framing views over the leafy vista.
Assimilating harmoniously, the superbly appointed 'Country-style' kitchen flaunts Caesar Stone surfaces, feature tiling, a walk-in pantry and premium stainless steel appliances (Blanco 900mm freestanding cooker, canopy range hood and Asko dishwasher).
The spacious floorplan also encompasses a large study or robed fourth bedroom, and an enviably sized master bedroom complete with walk-in robe and a lavish full ensuite featuring a luxurious freestanding claw foot slipper tub, timber vanity and oversized shower. Upstairs finds the children's domain benefiting from a spacious retreat with unique angled ceilings, a huge sky-lit family bathroom and two huge, extensively-robed bedrooms.
Well-suited to relaxation, entertainers and lovers of dining alfresco will ultimately adore the sensational undercover decking with cafe blinds allowing use through the seasons and delightfully overlooking the lush and almost entirely edible gardens - planted with strawberries, thyme, lemon myrtle, pineapple guava, fennel and kaffir lime, plus mandarin, lemon, lime and orange trees to name just a few, as well as vibrant 'Crepe Myrtle' trees providing a colourful feature to the frontage.
Further highlights; near new 6-star gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, split system reverse cycle air conditioner in family room, guest powder room, abundance of storage, fitted laundry with external access to sideway, remote double garage with internal entry, a 3000lt water tank with taps for irrigation to gardens.
