A gracious walkway leads past a trickling water feature to the front door of this beautiful home, which opens into a formal foyer, a conduit to the rest of the house. Walk through double French doors to the massive free form living area comprising kitchen, multiple dining, family/living and alfresco entertaining areas, which can be configured to suit your lifestyle.
The family room has a monster screen and projector with wall-mounted surround sound speaker system capability for awesome family movie nights plus a reverse cycle air-conditioner, gas fire and built-in shelving. There are plenty of eating options with room for both formal and informal dining tables and a long breakfast bar as part of the kitchen. The spacious kitchen has an electric oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher, cream cabinetry, double pantry, a large fridge alcove and track lighting above plenty of bench space.
The separate, well-lit lounge room has views of and a door to the garden and is tucked away from the rest of the house giving it a cosy sense of privacy.
The kids’ wing on the ground floor demonstrates the handy zoning capability of this home, which facilitates privacy and corrals the spread of toys. The kids’ zone has a fantastic activity room in the centre onto which the two bedrooms and bathroom face. It is light and bright with built-in shelving and plenty of room for toys and a TV. The bedrooms are traditionally decorated for a boy and a girl with fans, built-in shelving and robes. The bathroom has a shower, bath, vanity and a separate toilet with dual access making this a neat, self-contained area the kids will love.
The separate guest suite comprises a generous bedroom with a fan and arched windows through which you can hear the tinkling of the water feature outside. A semi-ensuite bathroom with vanity, toilet, shower and a large walk-in robe completes the picture. It’s perfect for guests, a teenager wanting some privacy or an elderly parent perhaps. A functional walk-through laundry with storage and a large office with more built-in shelving also reside on the ground floor.
You’ll have to organise your own breakfast kids because Mum and Dad won’t ever want to come downstairs as the entire second storey is devoted entirely to them. Head up the carpeted stairway with its ornate wrought iron and timber balustrade to the parents’ retreat. The master suite features an intimate private balcony for two, his and hers walk-in robes, plush carpets and a split system air-conditioner. It opens directly into a designer ensuite that features a large, elevated spa plus shower, double vanity, heated towel rails and a separate toilet. The parents’ lounge is comfortable and airy with one end opening out onto another larger balcony.
Alfresco entertaining is a delight under the expansive, deep verandahs that wrap around three sides, mirrored by lush lawn. There is plenty of room for both dining and lounge settings under the outdoor fans, so sit back and enjoy a BBQ with friends and watch the kids play in the enormous below ground Roman pool. Beyond the pool, neat gravel paths wind their way past a cool, artichoke-shaped fire pit and under spectacular shady, ornamental trees and mature shrubs that provide beautiful colour, form and texture to the fully reticulated front and back gardens.
There is a cute doll’s house cubby, swing set and room for a trampoline plus a large garden shed on the east side. A four-car, extra long garage provides ample room for vehicles, toys and storage. The semi-circular driveway dips down from Stone Crescent through to Kirkcaldy Grove and is framed by tall shady trees that hide the house from the street and provide a sense of privacy.
Set in a wonderful location, this family home is close to schools and transport plus Darlington Village, the tennis club and Bilgoman Pool are just minutes away. If you’re partial to a bit of glamour in your life and admire European architectural design in an Australian vernacular, then this is the home for you. You won’t find much like it in Darlington.
