8 Glenshael Court, Strathfieldsaye, Vic 3551

WHEN you see the size of the allotments in some of Bendigo's newest developments, this huge block of over 900 square metres in Battunga Park, with a lovely family home presents incredible value for money.

It's a superb neighbourhood too, with schools, medical services, shopping and sporting grounds all within walking distance.

Situated in a very quiet cul de sac, this rendered-brick home is beautifully presented and its pleasing floor plan presents a perfect alternative to building from scratch.

Originally built as three bedrooms and a study, the owners are currently using the study as a fourth bedroom. It's large enough to comfortably take a double bed and furniture for storage.

Across the tiled hallway is the main bedroom with a spacious walk-in wardrobe and three piece en suite with corner vanity.

The first of two large living spaces is an open lounge room, which then leads on to the main open-plan living area with family room, dining and kitchen.

Storage is excellent, with timber-veneer cabinetry, a big pantry, lots of benchspace, and stainless steel appliances including a Bellini electric oven, gas cooktop, and dishwasher. Gas heating is ducted throughout the house and a split-system air-conditioner takes care of cooling.

Two more bedrooms both have built-in wardrobes and are located either side of a family bathroom with separate bath, shower and a vanity.

Glass doors open from the dining area to 36 square metres of paved, undercover entertaining. It links up with a double carport that has an auto remote roller door. Double gates provide side access to the backyard for storage of a caravan, boat or extra vehicles.

With a ten acre property as the rear neighbour, the outlook is blue skies rather than rooftops.

An exceptional family home.
