Are you... Downsizing? Professional Couple? Small family? Working from home? Want views for miles? Upper Grieve Road is tucked away and known as the quietest, sunniest road in Avonsleigh! With a touch of Provence, this home is set upon a manageable plot with a comfortable 2 bedroom home, perfect for... well, all of the above.
With plenty of parking space, you will come through the picket gate and down the path to the front door, where you'll be greeted in the first living area with high ceilings and hardwood floors, a cosy lounge to snuggle by the gas flame fireplace on winter nights. You'll be drawn through the glass doors to the eastern side of the home, the dining area and second living space. This flows through to the kitchen, recently updated, with Provincial style cabinetry, dishwasher drawer, near new stainless steel Smeg freestanding cooker, and a layout which can incorporate a buffet and mobile island bench. Will there be tussles to wash the dishes, with this incredible view at your disposal? Down the hall are the bedrooms – spacious and airy, with extensive new built-in robes in the master. A quaint Heritage style bathroom with bath and separate shower includes dual entrance, allowing access from the laundry by the side door – ideal for gardeners to use the laundry as a mud room and slip quickly into the shower without dirtying the living space! Hardwood floors and door frames, large windows, gas ducted heating, a gas heater and a wood heater, lead light features, flyscreens throughout – this home is solid underfoot yet has a softness to it, a place to truly call home.
And if alfresco dining is your thing, there is the perfect deck for you! With transparent pull-down café blinds on all sides, you have the ability to open them on a warm evening and watch the moon rise, or close up and get the heater going for those winter mornings, and watch the sun rise and the mist roll in, in complete comfort.
In addition, a separate studio is ideal as an office or an artist retreat. Insulated walls, power, internet and overhead fan provide all you need for comfort during your work day, just steps through the beautiful garden back up the deck for lunch.
The garden has some beautiful Aussie gums, low shrubs, a plethora of flowers – roses, camellias, hydrangeas, and many more which will reveal themselves in spring. There are plenty of sitting places for taking in the views with cows visiting your fence, you can gaze across fields and forest, over to Gembrook and with Puffing Billy in sight, this truly feels like country living.
