The Snapshot:
Walk in, and you can feel it straight away: this home has been freshly lifted, so you can move in without the mental load. With recent internal and external painting and new carpet, the interiors feel clean, calm and genuinely ready to enjoy. It's a home that doesn't ask for weekends of work just a key, yourself, and a deep exhale.
The Home:
Easy, modern living is the brief at 61A Scenic Drive, and it delivers. Set on a 485sqm parcel and built in 2014, this brick-and-weatherboard home feels fresh from the moment you step inside, with recent painting inside and out, new carpet, and a calm, neutral palette that makes styling (or simply settling in) beautifully simple.
At the front of the home, a separate formal lounge creates a cosy "close the door and exhale" zone, finished with plush new carpet, vertical blinds, and DLonghi inverter air-conditioning. It's ideal as a movie room, second living space, or a quiet retreat when the household is doing its thing elsewhere.
The heart of the home opens into a tiled, light-filled kitchen, living and dining area, where family time and entertaining feel effortless. The kitchen is practical and well-appointed with generous cabinetry, ample benchspace, tiled splashback, quality appliances, and a walk-in pantry ready to hide the snacks (and the air fryer). Breakfast bar seating rounds it out nicely for quick meals, chats, and weekend grazing.
From the open-plan living area, glass sliding doors flow straight to the covered alfresco, making it a natural spot for morning coffees, afternoon snacks, or a relaxed BBQ. Beyond, the fully fenced backyard offers a secure space for kids and pets, with timber fencing, side gate access and a clothesline at the ready.
Bedrooms are thoughtfully separated, led by a master suite with a walk-in robe, ceiling fan, vertical and block-out blinds and a private ensuite. Bedrooms two, three and four each include new carpet, ceiling fans and built-in or walk-in storage, while the main bathroom features a wall-mounted bathtub plus a separate water closet for everyday ease.
Other features to love include the internal laundry with external access, split system air-conditioning (including a Fujitsu DC inverter in the main living zone), NBN, and a double garage with internal access and extra storage capacity.
Position-wise, it's a quiet pocket with everything close at hand: IGA and the Medical Centre, Sanma Espresso, St Nicholas Early Education, Gillieston Public School, and Maitland CBD are all within a quick and easy radius of home.
