Few homes command attention quite like this one. Standing as one of Merrylands West's most distinguished family residences, 5 Coolibah Street presents a rare union of architectural character, generous proportions, and enduring quality, Anchored on a 552sqm flat landholding with an expansive 19.5m frontage in one of the suburb's most quietly coveted pockets.
From the moment you arrive, the home asserts its presence, a full double-storey terracotta brick facade framed by manicured lawns, a columned portico entry, and a sweeping driveway leading to a double garage with decorative panel doors. Step inside and the drama continues: a grand timber staircase with hand-turned balustrades and decorative newel posts rises above a striking black-and-white diamond-pattern tiled foyer, setting the tone for everything that follows. This is a home that announces itself with confidence.
The lower level unfolds across multiple interconnected living zones, anchored by a living room of genuine character; a full-height exposed brick feature wall with a signature arched brick doorway serves as the home's centrepiece, a detail rarely found and impossible to replicate. Black-and-white checkerboard tiles carry through the dining and kitchen zones, where white raised-panel cabinetry, granite benchtops, stainless steel dishwasher, and a garden-facing window deliver a functional and timeless kitchen.
A sun-drenched family room with soaring vaulted timber-lined ceiling, split system air conditioning, and multiple sliding doors to the garden creates the informal heart of the home, a space that effortlessly transitions from everyday living to weekend entertaining. A ground-floor bedroom and bathroom complete the lower level, ideal for extended family or guest accommodation.
Upstairs, warm-toned hardwood timber floors extend across a broad open landing before flowing into four generously proportioned bedrooms, including a master suite with walk-in wardrobe, private ensuite, split system air conditioning, and stained glass window detail. The upper landing itself, framed by the home's signature timber balustrade, functions equally well as a retreat, study, or reading room, offering a sense of space rarely encountered at this price point.
Outdoors, established gardens and manicured lawns wrap the home in greenery, while the double lock-up garage with internal access and additional off-street parking ensures effortless daily function. Homes of this scale, character, and integrity simply do not come to market often. When they do, they don't wait.
