Nestled on the left-hand side, you’ll easily find number 9 - a hidden gem waiting to be explored!
From the moment you arrive, you’ll first notice the long driveway and huge setback from the street – the home is positioned in such a way that you have plenty of usable grassy land where you could simply install a fence at the front so the kids and pets have ample space to run around and play.
There’s also plenty of room to install garage or additional lockable carport should this be your requirement.
Ascend the few front steps and you’ll head onto the porch before you open the front door and head inside…
On this level you’ll enter the generously sized lounge and dining area that’s air-conditioned for year-round comfort.
Tucked neatly around the corner, you’ll discover the immaculate kitchen that features plenty of cupboard space, a tiled splash back, a microwave shelf and an array of quality appliances including an electric ceramic cook top, a range hood and an oven.
This main living area opens effortlessly onto the rear balcony that overlooks the pool and features new railings…the ideal place to enjoy a morning latte and gently ease into your day as you listen to the sweet sounds of the local birdlife.
Head to the upper level of the home and you’ll find three spacious bedrooms that all provide built-in robes.
These bedrooms lie adjacent to the stylish bathroom that offers floor-to-ceiling tiles, a separate bath, a neat vanity, a toilet and best of all, a therapeutic shower for the ultimate in relaxation.
There’s also a huge walk-in linen cupboard on this upper level.
If you descend the stairs back to the main level but keep going for a few more stairs and you’ll arrive in the big open family room/ rumpus that’s tiled, offers beautiful French doors to the outside (this room isn’t quite ‘legal height’ but is still very usable and is the perfect place for your kids to have their own space as they get older.
Additionally, you’ll find another separate room (that could be used as a 4th bedroom, kids’ retreat or perhaps the ideal office where your peace and quiet is assured.
The huge separate laundry provides direct access outside to the clothesline and once outside, you’ll fully appreciate the brand-new concrete retaining walls and monstrous (100,000 litre) in-ground swimming pool – you’ll be able to settle this home just in time for summer pool parties!
Whilst the home is largely original, the current owners have just spent a motza of money including the new retaining walls, substantial tree clearance and fresh landscaping, 16m3 of mulch, fresh internal paint in some parts of the home, new light fittings, new ceilings, new turf, refurbished roof with new guttering on the roof, new compliant smoke alarms, new Venetian blinds and a new side gate.
