Well elevated and enjoying a Southeast aspect, beautiful hedges frame this magnificent fully-fenced home. With air conditioning throughout its two levels, the whole family can enjoy separated living while still having designated communal areas. The master bedroom has plush carpeting and lovely curtain details framing spectacular views, along with high ceilings. Opposite a vast walk-in wardrobe, the ensuite is tiled, with beautiful wooden cupboards and traditional tapware. The top floor also includes a study and three further bedrooms (one of which has sliding-door access to the main deck), all uniquely finished, with built-in cupboards and fans. The main bathroom is tiled with a huge claw-foot bathtub and fixtures that echo the main ensuite, along with a frosted window and separate toilet.
The living and dining area offers a wealth of entertaining options. A large open-plan kitchen with a breakfast bar, beautiful wooden cupboards and timber floors enjoys easy proximity to the main living area with a double-sided fireplace. A separate dining and lounge area with Victorian trimmings and luxurious red carpet has urban views from each window. Outside the main eating area is a huge pavilion-style deck with ceiling fans, a built-in vent for a barbecue and plenty of space outdoors for the kids. A basketball area and mature garden pathway leading up to the second terrace of the backyard provide ample space.
Wander downstairs to the tiled den, where there is room for a gym and home theatre capabilities. A fifth bedroom has its own bathroom with modern fittings including a large glass-door shower. This bedroom has access to the hedged, private solar-heated swimming pool. From here you can notice the lovely ornate fretwork in the roof gables which are characteristic of this house, and the detail on the beautiful front door which is framed by stained glass. Other features of this home include tank rainwater usage and a back-to-base alarm system for easy security. Two large cars can fit easily in the remote-controlled lockup garage, and a workroom and huge storage room can be found adjacent.
