It will take less than a second to fall in love with the views, the privacy and the uniqueness of this charismatic hillside home on a huge yet very manageable 1254m2 allotment.
Yes, the attractions of living here are many: seclusion without isolation, proximity to Burnside Village and top schools including Seymour College and an absence of traffic courtesy of a no-through location. In fact, all you can hear is birdsong.
The 1980 home is built of double brick and has a beautiful energy - no distractions, no noise and a deeply relaxing vibe. And there's much fun to be had here too, with a breadth of entertaining options that are simply amazing.
A large covered alfresco area links a lovely large family room with a leisure studio and double carport, providing a natural hub for get-togethers with family and friends. It's very open: guests can sit out and have a few drinks, breeze into the studio for a game of billiards, (table included), top up at the wet bar and top off with a cleansing sauna and restorative spa, complete with shower and toilet facilities.
Inside the home, beautiful big rooms are infused with natural light and stunning tall timber and coastal views reminiscent of Sydney's Middle Harbour. Lounge and dining spaces offer carpeted open-plan comfort with a log-burning fireplace and adjoin a gorgeous modern kitchen by Wallspan. The pantry nook here is every bit as good as a walk-in, with a generous bench area to unload groceries and a long run of cupboards to store them in.
Two king-sized bedrooms include luxe master with ensuite and quality timber-fitted walk-in. This leaves the recent and very snazzily updated main bathroom and a separate toilet free to serve as an ensuite to the second bedroom, which has a full wall of built-in robes. An under-croft room reached by a side walkway could be recruited as a bedroom, (if more are needed), or ideal office space. Another option would be to go up and capitalize on the views (STCC).
For green thumbs, this is the chance of a lifetime to own a beautiful mature garden, terraced for ease of maintenance, with many a stunning specimen and the opportunity to grow your own.
A truly special home that will capture your heart and imagination but, don't take our word for it, check it out for yourself next weekend!
