Whilst it might sound a little clichéd, this warm and welcoming Colonial-styled two-storey residence really does tick all the boxes for comfortable family living.
Offering a thoughtfully designed layout, multiple living areas and a host of tasteful updates, this charming abode offers the perfect blend of space, versatility and lifestyle.
Before you even step inside, you’ll find the location ultra-handy in every way!
Simply turn onto Queen Elizabeth Drive from Eaton’s Crossing Road and continue along until you hit the fourth roundabout where you’ll turn left into Corso Street.
Follow Corso Street around to the right before it morphs into Sunblest Court and as you head gently up the street, Number 15 is neatly positioned on your left.
As you arrive, you can’t help but notice that this is clearly a home for those that love the subtle ambiance of lush greenery and blissful serenity…a feature of the suburb in general but a more specific element of this particular street.
Eaton’s Hill is now considered to be one of the most family-friendly suburbs in the entire Moreton Bay Region – with quality schools all within the area (or in adjacent suburbs), the educational options are as extensive as the shopping options, dining options, public transport options or sporting and recreational facilities…
From the highly-acclaimed Eaton’s Hill State School to the nearby Albany Creek State High School…or from private schooling options of St Paul’s Anglican College to Northside Christian College or Genesis Christian College, the kids schooling needs are well covered in every way.
From the Eaton’s Hill Hotel and Shopping Village to Albany Creek Central or Albany Creek Village…or from more elaborate shopping centres like the Aspley Hypermarket or the Strathpine Centre to the well-known Westfield Chermside or Westfield North Lakes.
From local train stations or handy bus stops to sumptuous restaurants, cafes and taverns like ‘The EH’ (Eaton’s Hill Hotel), ‘The AC’ (Albany Creek Tavern) or ‘The EP’ (Everton Park Hotel).
There’s local hot-spots like ‘Old Petrie Town’ to Bullocky’s Rest at Lake Samsonvale or even the wonderfully secluded Clear Mountain lodge where you can enjoy a cocktail with a view of the city lights.
And of course, the airport is only 30 minutes away and driving to the CBD will take only a few minutes longer.
But back to the home itself…
As you arrive, the extra-wide driveway and welcoming frontage immediately set the tone.
You’ll immediately be captured by the beautiful front gardens that guide you cleverly to the front door.
A lot of love and care has gone into creating the peaceful and picturesque gardens over the years.
Step inside and you’ll quickly feel the commanding presence of this home…
The beautifully repolished timber floors and lofty 9-foot ceilings enhance the sense of light and space throughout the upper level.
Head up the stairs to discover the main living zones that are wonderfully intertwined…perfectly designed for both everyday living and entertaining.
The casual living and meals area is central to the upper level and is a perfect space to connect the family while being able to watch TV or a movie on Netflix.
Opening seamlessly through timber French doors is the spacious rear deck…
Fitted with shutters and overlooking the sparkling in-ground swimming pool, this area invites you to read a book, enjoy a glass of wine or host a BBQ whilst enjoying the breezes.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both functional and well-positioned with a large window overlooking the pool.
Offering laminate benchtops, a gas cooktop, a stainless-steel oven, rangehood, tiled splashback and built-in pantry, this kitchen leaves you little to want.
Separated by a sliding door, the laundry is located just off the kitchen and features shelving, a sink and direct access externally.
There is also a dishwasher located in the laundry and if you have an eye for thoughtful design, you could easily transform this laundry into a fantastic European Butler’s pantry.
With clear separation from the main living and meals area are the three well-proportioned bedrooms on the upper level…all with ceiling fans whilst two of these bedrooms include built-in robes and one enjoys direct access onto the deck.
The main bathroom has been beautifully renovated with almost floor-to-ceiling tiles, a floating stone-topped vanity, a shower and bath with stylish feature tiling and a shelving recess - this bathroom is both tasteful and functional in design.
A separate toilet and external vanity add extra practicality for busy families.
Head downstairs to the spacious family room…a place of versatility and exceptional flexibility that is ideal for larger families, guests or potential dual-living arrangements.
Here you’ll find a convenient kitchenette with tiled splashback, sink and fridge space.
This room could be used to house the pool table or be used as a media room or simply a separate rumpus room.
There’s also an ultra-convenient external access to the carport on one side, meaning the older teenagers can come and go as they please.
On the other side of the room, there’s doors leading directly out to the rear yard.
Privately positioned to the left of the front door is the generous master suite that’s complete with lush carpet, large windows, a large walk-in robe and handy study nook.
The stylish ensuite features floor-to-ceiling tiles, a large shower, toilet, a country-style timber vanity and a wall mirror - the perfect bathroom in both form and function.
Located to the right of the front entry is an additional room that works perfectly as a home office or fifth bedroom…
Featuring new plush carpet and windows that overlook the front garden, this room is cosy, private and best of all, a serene work-from-home haven that will keep you relaxed even in times of stress.
Step outside and you’ll discover another fantastic family feature – the crystal clear in-ground swimming pool…
It’s easy to imagine the kids spending countless Summer afternoons here…and for your peace of mind, you can easily keep an eye on them from the deck.
With ample grass and a fully fenced yard, children and pets can safely play and enjoy the outdoors to their liking.
Green thumbs can enjoy tending to their gardens and store their tools in the handy garden shed that sits neatly in this wonderfully serene backyard.
Additional practical features include the double carport with a surprisingly large amount of roof storage, a Crimsafe style front security door, new aluminium stair rails leading down to the pool area and the benefit of an extra-wide driveway for additional parking.
