Overview

Village Edge Convenience with Space to Breathe

**LIMITED PARKING ONSITE- Please park in Tecoma and walk to the property ** Slip down the driveway and the bustle of Tecoma Village feels suddenly far away. Hidden on a private battle-axe allotment of 727m² approx., this beautifully presented home delivers the rare balance of peaceful seclusion and vibrant hills lifestyle - the kind of place where you can wander out for coffee in the morning, then retreat home to birdsong and crackling firelight by afternoon. From its facade, the home's striking Colourbond cladding and charming storybook silhouette hint at something a little special. Step inside and the feeling continues. Light spills through every window, polished timber floors gleam underfoot and the open-plan living zone hums with warmth, anchored by a cosy Coonara wood fire that promises memorable winter evenings. The kitchen is designed for both practicality and conversation. Stone benches, a generous breakfast bar and quality appliances - including a Franke 900mm gas cooktop and Bosch dishwasher - ensure the cook never misses the action. A step-in pantry keeps everything neatly tucked away, while the surrounding living and dining areas create a social hub for everyday life. Upstairs, the home opens into a light-filled retreat zone where vaulted ceilings and dormer windows create an airy sense of space. Three robed bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned here, including a main suite with walk-in robe and sleek ensuite featuring a rain shower. The family bathroom continues the modern theme, offering comfort and style for growing families or visiting guests. Outdoors, the lifestyle continues to unfold. A rear deck overlooks a sunny tier of crushed rock ideal for a firepit gathering under the stars, while a patch of lawn offers space for play, pets or a little weekend gardening. For tradies, hobbyists or anyone who simply needs room to spread out, the property delivers in spades. A huge barn-style shed measuring approximately 10.5m x 7m with pitched roof and concrete slab provides exceptional storage, workshop potential or creative workspace. Plus the added bonus of connected electricity provisions for water (hot and cold) and internet. There's also ample parking for trailers, caravans or boats. And perhaps the best surprise of all - the property enjoys direct rear access to the Rail Trail. Morning bike rides, evening walks and weekend adventures begin right at your back gate. With Tecoma's cafés, boutiques, train station and the iconic Puffing Billy Railway just moments away, this is hills living that blends charm, convenience and a little dash of adventure.
