This well-appointed and beautifully finished four bedroom house is set in a quiet secluded spot on the edge of Portland. Built about nine years ago, the cream stone house has a 5.5-star energy rating and is surrounded by paved verandas providing plenty of shade and views across the 0.4 hectare block.
A gravel drive leads to the double garage which has a remote controlled panel lift door and is fully lined and plastered including skirting boards and cornices. It also has two north-facing windows and a door into the front entrance foyer, which can also be accessed from the front veranda. The entrance foyer opens into the light and spacious open-plan living/dining/kitchen area. Large north-facing windows and sliding glass doors allow plenty of natural light into this spacious room. It has floating timber flooring through the kitchen/dining area while the living area is carpeted.
The kitchen has stone-look lami-wrap bench tops co-ordinated with off-white two-pack cabinetry including three banks of drawers and a large walk-in pantry. The L-shaped split-level breakfast bar is cleverly designed to hide the double sink and dishwasher while its laminate splashback makes for easy cleaning. The kitchen also has a five-burner gas cook top and an electric wall oven.
The spacious living area is light and inviting with a large north facing window overlooking the front garden, while a combustion heater set into a period-style fireplace adds a touch of elegance.
Off the living area, a door opens into the spacious master bedroom, which has a cleverly designed walk-through robe which makes the most of the light from the large south-facing window. The ensuite has a tiled floor, recessed shower, toilet and laminate vanity unit with two hand basins.
A hallway from the living room provides access to the other three bedrooms, the formal lounge and the main bathroom.
Double sliding doors open into the formal lounge which has north-facing windows and a sliding glass door opening onto the front veranda.
The bathroom has similar finishes to the ensuite and contains a shower, separate bath and a vanity unit.
Outside is a 9m x 7.5m three-bay cream Colorbond shed, a large rear lawn area planted with a variety of fruit trees and a row of ornamental pear trees along the east boundary.
Built by local builder Michael Hein, the 33.8 square house has ducted vacuuming, electric central heating and airconditioning as well as double glazing throughout.
