Sitting at the end of a cul-de-sac, it's quiet, yet just a short walk from Bentons Square. One of those mid-nineties homes that were built well and are perfect for living in today, or as a base for a contemporary future. But that's not the best part.
Inside, the living spaces run one behind the other down the western side: the fireside living and dining, then the generous granite-topped kitchen, then a second living and meals area at the northern end, opening straight out to the terrace. Step through, and you're at the north-facing pool area. It's what we love most about this home. Sun-filled yet private thanks to the established trees surrounding it, it's a huge paved space with the BBQ already in place, a spa off one end of the pool, and plenty of room left over for morning coffee in the sun. But the star is the pool itself, so large you'll have no choice but to host family gatherings.
Back inside, the main suite has its own ensuite and walk-in robe, while the two robed bedrooms share a family bathroom with a bath and separate toilet. Then there's the guest studio. Fully self-contained with a kitchenette, bathroom and separate entry, it's the perfect teen retreat or a space for the in-laws who are now welcome to stay a week longer than you planned.
