Why we LOVE 7 Christensens Road…
- The outdoor lifestyle factor – Get a taste of living off the grid without abandoning the urban conveniences. This lush 5-acre property (2.08 ha) is totally flat & usable which opens up so many doors. Take a leaf out of the current owner’s book & let a couple of horses roam in the paddock out beyond the shed, or even keep a few cows. Install a pool, spa, granny flat or motorbike track with plenty of room to spare. The possibilities are endless! Even without any additional installations, there are loads of natural wonders to explore here, including your own private spot on the bank of Sandy Creek where you can teach the kids to fish & set crab pots
- Central kitchen – At the heart of the home you’ll find a family-sized kitchen, fully equipped with everything you may need. It features ample bench & storage space, a corner breakfast bar, large walk-in pantry, modern dishwasher & 2 ovens (so convenient for larger families or entertaining!). We also love its wide windows which provide a full view of the patio & garden. You could even install some cafe-style bifold windows here for a seamless connection to the patio for serving food/drinks!
- Bonus living space – Like the idea of settling in for movie night? The additional living room will make for the perfect spot. Positioned away from the common space for privacy, this carpeted space in neutral tones will accommodate a large lounge ensemble fit for the whole family or could even be transformed into a home office or games room
- 4 spacious bedrooms, master with ensuite – Warm & cosy yet super spacious, the home’s 4 bedrooms provide every member of the family with their own quiet spot to unwind after a long day. Each room features carpeted flooring, a ceiling fan & A/C for maximum comfort. The master suite is particularly special, of course, fit with a spacious walk-in robe plus light-filled ensuite with glass screen shower.
