Winning the Sustainable Home & Garden Award for the City of Greater Dandenong makes this home one of the best on the market today and a testament to how caring this home's owners are.
Do you like the sound of NO electricity bills? What about being paid a massive 68c/kWh to sell your electricity back? Ever wanted to buy a home that is environmentally friendly, energy efficient and well looked after? Ever wanted a home in a court location, with a park and cooking facilities available? Ever wanted a home that utilises space perfectly, has all fixtures and fittings and close to all amenities?
I have honestly never seen a home like this and if you want all the above features to support a lifestyle that you deserve then this is the home for you. Let's take a tour through the main features of this marvellous home;
Three very well proportioned bedrooms with BIR all draped in polished Tasmanian Oak hardwood timber floors, recently renovated bathroom with bath over shower combo and extra storage space behind new vanity, huge lounge area that can be transformed into multiple layouts, U-shaped kitchen with free standing stove, range hood and overhead cupboards, adjoining dining room with TV antenna outlet all draped in tiles. Moving outside, we have a huge pergola with sink and merbau bench top perfect for preparing meals outside, plus two his and her sheds and garage.
Above are the items you'd expect for a standard home in Keysborough however this home is far from standard so let's go through a list of extra features these owners have added and prepare to be amazed!!
UV coating on all windows, which significantly reduces heat transfer; Roof insulation; Outdoor shade blinds on all sun-facing windows; Huge solar electricity system which is on the highest feed-in tariff of 68c/kWh until 2024.
(These panels are shade tolerant so they continue to perform even when some panels are shaded); Newly restored and painted roof; Gutter guards on entire house and garage; Colour bond gutters and fascias- never paint your fascias again!
Under the pergola they've laid recycled rubber paving which is porous and therefore easy to clean and soft underfoot; Newly landscaped backyard with apricot and cherry trees, drought tolerant native plants and underground irrigation making them low maintenance but beautiful; A fully established front garden in front with lemon tree and a large fishpond.
You may be wondering how you're going to water all of these but don't worry. The owners have thought of that with a 3,000 litre water tank with pump and a secondary smaller water tank near the back shed. Large, raised veggie patch with solar powered irrigation; Gate access to Roth Hetherington Reserve (which has a playground, BBQ and toilets). Outdoor security lighting, front and rear.
Inside we have four Daikin split system air conditioners, ceiling fans in all rooms, ducted heating (almost new); almost new Aquamax gas hot water system, hard-wired security alarm system and lastly tool shed, plus garden shed with laundry (no noisy washing machine in house!)
How does that sound for a dream home? Everything you ever wanted all wrapped up in cute gates and a loving court location.
