If space for extended family is a priority, then look no further! This home was built with you in mind.
The design consists of five bedrooms, including two downstairs masters, four bathrooms, three bonus family rooms, two lounges, formal dining area plus a large kitchen. The granny-flat, located at the front of the house, includes ramp access, kitchenette, bathroom and bedroom/lounge. This home offers space and versatility for several different family dynamics.
Inspired by heritage design and flagged by twin palms, this handsome, two storey, low maintenance brick and tile home sits back from the street on a slightly elevated site. The location is private and peaceful with friendly cul-de-sac neighbours gathering together annually to celebrate. The house is appealing to the eye and has a beautifully paved front verandah offering a welcome spot for a quiet read and relief from the summer heat.
The 1,092m block is fully fenced, including the driveway. A large rear yard, flanked by a lush garden, provides plenty of space for young children and pets. Two separate outdoor entertainment areas provide shade and a water tank keeps plants flourishing.
A four car lock-up garage with remote control, large powered shed/workshop with lighting and a concreted parking area with sizeable turn around tick all the boxes for the men.
The address is within the reputable Mansfield State High School catchment area and handy to Garden City, where the $400million expansion plan (which has attracted Myers and Target plus 100 new specialty shops) has local house prices on the rise. The area has natural bush reserves with excellent parks and walkways plus the Gateway motorway, which accesses the Sunshine and Gold Coast, is two minutes away.
Come and see for yourself at the open home or phone Ken for a private viewing.
