Interiors: Family-Friendly Meets Dual Living Flexibility
Step inside and discover a thoughtfully designed interior that balances comfort, functionality, and flexibility across two generous levels. Ascending the wide, welcoming front stairs (which has a convenient chairlift for enhanced wheelchair accessibility), you'll find an elevated front verandah offering breezy outlooks and distant mountain views.
Inside, a spacious family lounge offers a cosy retreat, complete with soft carpeting, air conditioning for year-round comfort, and a ceiling fan to keep the air flowing. Adjacent to this, the open-plan dining area creates an easy connection for family meals and entertaining.
The kitchen is well-appointed and functional, and features expansive bench space, a double sink, and an abundance of cabinetry to keep everything organised. A corner pantry adds extra storage, while the electric cooktop and oven make cooking a breeze. Overlooking the lush rear gardens, it's also steps away from the back verandah-an ideal spot to unwind and take in the breathtaking rear gardens.
The bedroom wing includes two light-filled rooms, each with a ceiling fan, built-in wardrobe, and a handy study nook, so perfect for students. These rooms share a renovated family bathroom with a shower/bath. The air conditioned master suite is a comfortable and private retreat, and has double full-length built-in wardrobes, and a renovated ensuite. This is wheelchair-friendly in terms of its size and the addition of grab rails.
Downstairs, the lower level opens up a world of opportunity. Fully built-in and incredibly versatile, this space is ideal for a home business or a dual living arrangement for teenagers, extended family, or for generating rental income. Existing features include rooms that could be transformed into bedrooms plus living/dining areas, with full length cupboards for storage. The laundry offers potential to be converted into a kitchenette, while an existing toilet and additional space provide scope to add a full bathroom, further enhancing this property's value. With direct access to a second garage, this level could easily function as a private, independent zone, complementing the double garage that could be reserved for the main residence above.
Exteriors: Award-winning Gardens & Abundant Parking
Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the exterior of "Minna Marie" offers a rare sense of privacy and tranquillity. The name reflects two unrelated family members who coincidentally shared the same name, and the property is surrounded by beautifully curated gardens that reflect over 30 years of loving ownership.
From the moment you arrive, the home's charm is undeniable, with a striking topiary entrance and a paved garden path framed by vibrant ornamental plantings, roses, and lush hedging. A feature Willow Myrtle adds character, while a bird feeder and mossy pond enhance the peaceful setting.
The award-winning landscaping extends around the entire property, creating a green sanctuary filled with layered textures and colour. The backyard is particularly enchanting, showcasing a prominent archway hedge, rock retaining walls, and a rich mix of potted plants and hanging baskets. A thriving collection of tropical and ornamental species, including bromeliads, peace lilies, Staghorn and Elkhorn ferns, and a vibrant Tiger Fern, adds depth and life, all set against a backdrop of dense foliage and a well-kept lawn.
A stone paver pathway winds through the garden to a vine-covered timber pergola, where a table and benches sit beneath the shade of a mature olive tree-an idyllic space for a morning coffee or a relaxed evenings with friends.
