A rare opportunity to raise a family in an idyllic private setting, this expansive single-level brick residence is secluded at the head of a tranquil cul-de-sac, nestled amidst more than an acre of beautifully manicured gardens and lush lawns. Meticulously cared for by its owners for more than 30 years, the home combines generous proportions with an exceptionally versatile floorplan designed to adapt effortlessly as families evolve. A secluded rear wing with its own separate access creates outstanding flexibility for harmonious multi-generational living or impressive guest accommodation, while the expansive formal, casual and rumpus living spaces and inviting alfresco terraces provide a magnificent setting for memorable family gatherings and large-scale entertaining.
At the entry, an elegant formal living and dining room showcases hardwood parquetry flooring and peaceful garden views on both sides. A separate skylit family room and casual dining area flows seamlessly to an expansive sundrenched paved terrace and patio, creating an inviting setting for relaxed alfresco dining and entertaining.
Beyond, the enchanting garden grounds host a collection of evergreen and deciduous trees, creating a vibrant display of colour throughout the seasons, with weeping cherry, magnolia, silver birch, eucalyptus and jacaranda complemented by manicured rose gardens and swathes of seasonal bulbs. A charming pond with a rockery waterfall is set alongside a collection of mature fruit trees includes fig, orange, pear, plum, apple and olive, retaining three original plum trees from the property's historic former orchard.
Sprawling lawns provide abundant space for lively games of backyard cricket and football, while a large fenced vegetable garden includes prolific established raspberry canes. Two chook sheds and three greenhouses further enhance the property's appeal for those seeking a rewarding garden-to-table lifestyle.
The spacious contemporary kitchen is appointed with thick stone benchtops, extensive storage including a walk-in pantry and concealed appliance cabinet, and quality stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, 900mm gas cooktop and two Miele electric ovens, one incorporating a combi microwave.
Privately zoned within the main family wing, the oversized master suite features three sets of built-in wardrobes and a fully tiled private ensuite with a frameless glass shower and substantial stone-topped vanity. Three additional bedrooms each offer generous built-in wardrobes and are complemented by a bright family bathroom with a separate bathtub and convenient separate toilet.
Offering remarkable flexibility for every stage of family life, the secluded rear wing can function as a two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence, with its own separate entrance while also connecting to the main home via double doors. Ideal for harmonious multigenerational living, older children, long-term guests or independent family members, the wing comprises a sunlit family room alongside a spacious rumpus with parquetry flooring and an inbuilt hardwood wet bar with a large wine rack. A solarium-style indoor swim spa provides an enticing year-round retreat.
The rear wing also includes two robed bedrooms, with one enjoying a fully tiled private ensuite, alongside a flexible additional room ideal as a nursery, dressing room or study. A home office and a second fully tiled bathroom within the rear provide further versatility.
Featuring updated gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, two split-system air-conditioning units and a full laundry with outdoor access, the meticulously maintained home also includes a double lock-up garage with internal entry via a large skylit mudroom.
