Views of expanses of greenery, rolling hills and an allotment of approximately 1029 square metres, are just some of the fabulous highlights of this home. Marvel at the generosity of the accommodation, the selection of living spaces and the fabulous, covered alfresco protected by full length caf blinds and a gas fireplace for all-weather entertaining. Then take a moment and imagine how wonderful it would be to raise your family here!

Pushing open the double entry doors, a foyer awaits and connects through to the lavish formal lounge room or private media room with a high set ceiling (3.6m) and plush carpet and complemented by quality window furnishings. Floorboards lead you up to the open plan kitchen/family/meals room, where you'll be wowed by stone split level bench tops with waterfall edges, an under bench sink with a ZIP hot water tap, melamine splashbacks, generous storage and high grade appliances.

Take time to explore the glorious tiered back garden with a private alfresco entertaining area with a gas fire and privacy and temperature moderating caf blinds, an upper sitting area from where you can soak in the sensational views, and gated access. The grounds are also low-maintenance with gorgeous established plants and there is plenty of space for children and/or pets to play, and native bush land with an abundance of wildlife is only a short walk away.

Back indoors and the main bedroom with walk-in robe, external access to the entertaining area, and an elegant ensuite with quality fixtures and fittings resides at the back of the home and the three remaining robed bedrooms are serviced by another luxurious bathroom.

However, the long list of features does not finish there. Add to this gas ducted heating, ducted evaporative cooling, a continuous flow gas hot water system, a 22 panel (5.83kW) solar system and SolarEdge micro-inverters, and a remote controlled extra large double garage with internal access, this amazing opportunity simply cannot be missed.
