The Snapshot:
Life at 32 Metford Road is made for easy entertaining. The kind that starts at the kitchen bench, spills into the open-plan living zone, then drifts out to the screened alfresco while the backyard does its thing in the background (space, privacy, and room to play). It's a home that feels comfortable and uncomplicated.
The Home:
With its exposed timber beams overhead and a floor plan that flows with ease, 32 Metford Road feels like the kind of home that's ready to welcome real life, with plenty of space out back for kids, pets, gardens or all three at once.
Set on 633sqm, this classic brick residence combines warmth and simplicity with a handful of character touches that make it feel instantly familiar. Step inside and you'll notice the soaring ceiling line and those timber beams framing the open-plan living and dining zones - comfortable, light-filled spaces with carpet underfoot and pendant lighting that give the home a relaxed, lived-in glow. A split-system air conditioner keeps things comfortable, whether you're hosting a full house or enjoying a quiet night in.
The kitchen sits at the heart of it all, offering practical storage with overhead and under-bench cabinetry, a laminate benchtop, tiled splashback, stainless steel sink, and a Chef oven with a four-burner electric cooktop. There's also a breakfast bar for casual meals, plus a bi-fold louvred window opening to the dining room - a small detail, but one that makes serving, chatting, and keeping the conversation going delightfully easy.
Three carpeted bedrooms are each finished with downlights and curtains, and storage that keeps everyday clutter under control. The main bathroom is neatly appointed with a built-in bath, glass-screen shower, wall mirror and vanity with mixer tap.
Outside is where the lifestyle really opens up. An enclosed entertaining area creates a breezy, protected spot for long lunches and late afternoon drinks, while the fully secure fencing makes the backyard feel private and safe. Established garden beds add softness and colour, and there's even a brick undercover area for extra flexibility. Off-street parking is generous thanks to the large driveway, and the external two-car garage includes extra room for storage cabinetry - perfect for tools, bikes, or the "we'll-sort-it-later" boxes.
And when it comes to location, you're exceptionally well placed for everyday ease: close to Tenambit Public School, Maitland Hospital, Stockland Green Hills, the CBD, and key transport links.
