Well positioned on the block to take advantage of the morning sun while avoiding the afternoon heat, this home will make you feel like your neighbours are far away.
Entry is via a gently curving path that leads between the beautiful and cool green arch of two Japanese maples. An easy-care native garden and lawn at the front attracts native birds like firetails, fairy wrens and wattle birds.
Inside, the spacious living area is ideal for day-to-day living, from the flexibility provided by the floorplan and natural light, to year-round comfort thanks to oversized ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling. The 13.3kW solar system, installed in early 2024 ensures low power bills, while the 3-phase underground power future-proofs the home.
The L-shaped lounge room provides space for family living and the flexibility for a home office or toy and play space for the kids. Top-down-bottom-up honeycomb blinds allow you to choose how much of the world you let in and provide extra insulation against the heat and cold. The kitchen features generous storage with induction cooking and a one-and-a-half wall oven for the avid baker. The kitchen overlooks the family area allowing you to chat with guests or supervise your children's homework. The kitchen space also provides the opportunity to design your dream kitchen in the future.
Segregated from the living areas, each of the three bedrooms are well-sized with built-in robes. The front rooms benefit from deep eaves and shade provided by the established Japanese maple trees, softening the morning sun in summer while allowing plenty of light to stream in the windows in winter. The central family bathroom has been updated and features the convenience of a separate toilet.
The outdoor space is perfect for entertaining or relaxing, with a large, insulated verandah, generous lawned area for the kids and pets to play, and a low-maintenance garden. The spacious yard includes 12 raised garden beds, and an abundance of established edible plants and fruit trees. The yard is completed by a bespoke chicken coop that has to be seen to be believed. A converted workshop in the double garage is perfect for tinkering on projects, whilst there is additional parking space in front of the garage and side access provides security for a trailer or caravan and allows full vehicle access to the rear yard.
Sustainability is a key feature, with solar power, thoughtful landscaping for seasonal comfort, and plenty of outdoor space. With easy walking access to local parks and playgrounds, several fruit trees and high-speed internet for working from home, this home blends eco-friendly living with modern convenience.
Just a 4-minute walk to Charnwood shops, this home is perfectly located for a quick run for groceries or taking time out at one of the two coffee shops, with the added bonus of friendly neighbours and a peaceful neighbourhood.
