It is often said that good design will stand the test of time and this much loved family home is a testament to that with a design that utilises the fall of the land to great effect creating defined living and sleeping zones across 3 levels. On entry the house offers the options of heading downstairs to the living zone, heading up to the parents retreat or branching off the foyer to enter what is a children’s bedroom wing.
The heart of this delightful home is downstairs where a fabulous chef’s kitchen separates the formal living and dining room from the informal family and dining space. The beauty of this zone is that all three spaces enjoy views of treetops and the garden below while the timeless design of the custom built kitchen with Bosch and Blanco appliances includes such features as a 360 degree Lazy Susan corner cupboard, spice drawer, double layer cutlery drawer and cupboards with pull out shelves as well as a servery opening to the family room.
The formal living and dining room features a highly efficient Jetmaster open fireplace while the family/casual dining room opposite has a feature wall in NZ Rimu timber, both split system air-conditioning and ceiling fan, and opens out to a 2 level timber deck which leads down to a paved alfresco dining space set amongst a peaceful and mature garden with olive, fig and fruit trees.
The upstairs parents retreat comprises a spacious master bedroom with ensuite, walk-in robe and air-conditioner and a separate bedroom/study also with air-conditioner. In-roof storage space can also be accessed via the study. Both these rooms have superb tree-top and parkland views. The entry level zone comprises two bedrooms both with built-in robes, a family bathroom with bath and shower a separate toilet and laundry with direct external access. This zone can be closed off from the rest of the house for peace and privacy.
Located next door to a park with a new playground currently in construction this gem of a family home includes ducted heating, solar power, 2700 litre water tank, security doors front and back, big back yard with garden shed and double auto garage with internal remote at the front door.
Within close proximity to major retailers at Stockland The Pines Shopping Centre and with local Newman Road shops a short walk away this property has a city bound bus stop just across the park and is zoned for Templestowe Park Primary School.
