Last Listing description (May 2014)

Sited on a rare, older, large acre (1068m2) block at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac and surrounded by reserves, walking trails, playgrounds, and only a short stroll to schools and shops, it soon becomes apparent when you walk through the gates that this is not your average suburban property.
An established low maintenance garden, complete with two water tanks for irrigation, surrounds the home and is bordered by high fences and hedges providing privacy. It has been set out with a variety of areas including a manageable lawn, courtyards, paved areas with built in gas BBQ and several flowerbeds. Shade trees and fishponds provide a tranquil escape no matter what the season. Fully secured on every side this garden provides safety for pets and children.
The updated 157m2 (almost 17 squares) home offers a sunny north-easterly aspect looking out over the gardens. There are two large, distinct living areas consisting of a formal lounge and a family room. This area could easily be segregated for separate living with third bedroom and second smaller bathroom.

The dining area is separate and the kitchen and laundry offer loads of storage. Both dining and kitchen have a garden outlook, as do all other rooms.
The master bedroom is one of a kind and hard to find, with ample room for a king sized bed plus other furniture. You will never find yourself wanting for space! Added to this is its own separate area suited to a study, nursery or simply a sitting area. A large walk-in robe and bathroom-sized ensuite complete this lovely retreat which is separated from other two bedrooms.
Inclusions throughout consist of quality sisal carpets, ceramic tiles, micro venetians, vertical blinds and timber shutters while comfort throughout the year is assured with ducted gas heating and evaporative cooling.
A double garage with secure remote control doors is conveniently located for direct entry to the garden via a lockable side door. A fully lined, insulated and wired storeroom attached to garage is suitable for many uses including office, sewing room, studio, teenage retreat etc.
An entertainers delight, this home is ideally suited to a professional couple, retirees, or the small family.
