1 Royal Oak Avenue

Thornton NSW 2322

The living area feels both spacious yet cosy with its beige carpets underfoot, mix of LED downlighting and soft uplighters, and a set of east-facing windows that will let in the morning light.

Adjacent to the lounge, the dining area provides a closer feel for spending quality time together over meals, boasting the same carpets, LEDs and uplighters as the living area, with a northern window controlled by plantation shutters.

Toward the home’s centre lies a recently renovated galley-style kitchen, which offers the busy chef easy-clean tiles underfoot, a recessed fridge space, stainless steel appliances, and timber-look countertops dividing under- and over-bench cabinetry.

A tiled laundry extends from the kitchen and also benefits from recent renovations, offering speckled countertops, ample storage, and convenient access to both the exterior of the home and the double garage.

A second living area sits past the kitchen, extending on the same speckled tiles and lit by LED downlighting, which flows on to a carpeted lounge or large home office that’s brightened by three large windows with plantation shutters. Both spaces offer convenient access to the central courtyard.

Renovations to the three-way main bathroom create a space that is both inviting and functional, offering modern, slate-look tilework, a dedicated bath and freestanding shower, and an oversized vanity with a dark benchtop and contemporary elevated basin.

Three bedrooms flank the bathroom, each of which offering carpets underfoot, built-ins, and windows. The master suite sits to the property’s front, offering the same inclusions on a slightly larger floorplan and a stunning ensuite that echoes the aesthetic of the main bath.

The undercover alfresco area, accessed through either the lounge, second living, or laundry, provides an excellent place to relax after a long day, with the pitched ceiling and three-sided shelter making it an ideal space for all-weather entertaining.

A saltwater pool extends from this space and a good-sized yard wraps around the corner, both of which will be highly regarded in the warmer months, while a small shed offers space for all the tools and toys that won’t fit in the double garage.

Family-friendly Thornton offers a range of local amenities and facilities in its local shopping centre, as well as a good selection of parks and nature spaces. For further needs, Maitland’s larger range of services, including the expansive Stockland Green Hills shopping and dining complex, sits just 10 minutes from home, while commuters to Newcastle will benefit from just a half-hour cruise down the A43.

With its recent renovations, multiple living areas and saltwater swimming pool, 1 Royal Oak Avenue represents an excellent entrance to a central, sought-after suburb, and it’s unlikely to last for long.
