Versatility shines through with multiple living and entertaining spaces and the choice of four bedrooms, or three plus a dedicated home office or third living room to suit your lifestyle. Walking distance to Geelongs best schools, the single-level property in a secluded setting is an ideal fit for a busy modern family, an executive couple with the opportunity to work or consult from home or downsizers opting for low-maintenance living. Quality and space have been a priority throughout the high-end design and fitout. The centrepiece for entertaining and family gatherings is a large open-plan living, dining and kitchen zone, stepping out through stacker doors to a north-facing alfresco deck and private landscaped garden. With stunning spotted gum floors, gas log fire, loads of light and space galore, the living space is functional and sleek, accommodating sofas, a full dining suite and room for children to play. The designer kitchen features stone benchtops, quality appliances, abundant storage and a U-shaped butlers pantry with benches and shelving for preparation and storage. Walls of windows blend the indoor and outdoor living spaces and ensure light-filled living all year round. A large second living area, designed for use as a home cinema with in-built sound system, offers an array of lifestyle choices, including as a billiard room, rumpus room or second lounge. A state-of-the-art study with tall windows and sliding doors opening onto a garden outlook is the ultimate home office setting with long built-in desk and shelving or a serene formal lounge. The bedrooms, split into two zones, are all substantial. The master suite enjoys its own wing with walk-in robe, ensuite with spa bath, frameless shower and heated floors, split-system unit and private deck and garden. The other bedrooms, with built-in robes, share a high-end central bathroom with neighbouring powder room.
