In a secluded position that reflects the local setting, this private yet convenient property has much to reveal. Cleverly built to make the most of the spacious block, entry to this family friendly residence is gained by walking down a stepped garden path. From there you'll reach the beautiful semi-enclosed wooden deck which wraps itself right around to the rear part of the home. Through the feature front doors welcoming floating floorboards set the tone for a warming living/lounge room which has an open fireplace and reverse cycle split system heating and cooling.
Moving through to the kitchen area, a sunny dining or second living space right on the windows is a place for the entire family to enjoy. It provides access to a paved outdoor entertaining area equipped with outdoor fireplace, rocked feature wall and plenty of room for the barbecue, table and chairs. The kitchen cleverly combines timber tones and wooden bench tops with new dishwasher, under bench oven, built-in gas cook top and large pantry. Down the hallway a modern central bathroom with separate shower, built-in bath and toilet will handle the family foot traffic while the functional laundry has the convenient inclusions of a second shower and toilet. Two light and bright bedrooms with built-in robes at this end of the home have fantastic views and direct access to the outdoor decking, while a third bedroom also with built-in robes provides further accommodation.
Spirited debate will no doubt decide who gets to call the downstairs multi-purpose room home. With access gained only from the outdoors and with connection to the cellar, it could be used as a bedroom, home office, teenager's retreat or even a music room. An elevated outdoor deck overlooks the spectacular backyard featuring grassed areas, walking paths, a pond and garden shed. Cleverly planted trees and shrubs will make you feel more like you're on 10 acres of land rather than a township block. As you would expect with a property like this there are many extras such as gas ducted heating, added air conditioning, water tank and double lock up garage with extra off street parking and a pathway to the main house. With proximity to the Lilydale Lake, Main Street Lilydale and Yarra Hills Secondary College and easy access to the Maroondah Highway and Eastlink, private, yet connected living starts here.
