Quality executive homes with a combination of great location, facilities and presentation like this are very rarely offered for sale. Situated in what must in any estimation be considered a dress circle position, it will be very difficult for even the fussiest of buyers to find fault with this sparkling gem or its positioning.
The one owner home was designed and lovingly built in 1993 by a private builder for personal family use, and has been updated along the way for good measure. The build quality and thoughtful design features really do shine through, and it isn't difficult to see the advantages this home offers over many would-be contenders. With terrific street appeal, this property sits privately and attractively in immaculate but low maintenance front gardens, and with a great combination of bluestone facade, earthy clay pavers and a hard to find third driveway with plenty of room for a boat or caravan, the home just oozes class.
Perched on the edge of the Cobbler Creek reserve as it is makes for panoramic rear views to be enjoyed from both indoors and out, and with the bonus of immediate access via a handy rear gate to a fantastic natural reserve just perfect for daily walks in a beautiful park and is home to loads of birdlife. An attractive pitched roof pergola covered entertaining area, outdoor wired sound and an adjacent water feature make for fabulous outdoor living all year round, with summer a special treat in this beautiful garden with fruit trees including cherry, mandarin, lemon, apricot, lime and mulberry for the picking.
Inside the home the quality continues. With a spacious tiled entry, tall ceilings all at least 2700mm, and several levels, this home is distinctly different from run of the mill offerings and you will be proud to invite your friends to your delightful new home. Some of the many features include two large living areas, one a delightful formal lounge that could be a fantastic home theatre room or even easily convert to an extra bedroom and / or study, and the other adjacent to the open plan kitchen and dining area and taking full advantage of the rear views. Economical ducted evaporative air conditioning is partnered with a 40 megajoule gas heating system with more than enough efficiency and power to keep this home very comfortable all year round.
The gas equipped kitchen boasts loads of cupboards and a walk in pantry, plus european stainless steel appliances, miles of granite bench top and glass and granite splash back and the bonus of easy access to the outdoor entertaining area. Of course the views through the kitchen window are a treat for any cook. Floor to ceiling tiling and granite topped vanities to both bathrooms are another quality feature, as is the huge amount of storage the home offers through built ins in bedrooms 2 & 3, and heaps of extra built in cupboards including a large laundry with a full wall of storage. Perhaps the real bonus for many will be the two under home cellars, with one doubling as a handy workshop and offering consistent temperatures just ideal for wine or food storage.
The 7.0 x 6.3 metre remote entry double garage is oversized, and will easily accommodate larger vehicles with room to spare. No expense was spared in the building of this home which was clearly built to last for generations, and small but important things like the many extra power points to be found both indoors and out attest to this planning and attention to detail. Even the fabulous cubby house is lined and insulated! The immaculate gardens are auto irrigated with plumbed rainwater supplied from over 15000 litres of tank capacity.
Do your family a favour and make sure you inspect this beautiful property before settling on your new home.
