Set on a double block of over 2,000m² (approx), this striking split-level, four-bedroom home offers room to grow now and well into the future. Built from strong double brick with main rooms on a raised concrete slab, it blends lasting quality with thoughtful modern updates.
A double-door entrance opens onto a light-filled living and dining area with soaring elevated ceilings, a flexible space to suit any lifestyle. The lower level holds this living area plus two bedrooms; upstairs offers two further bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and laundry. All four bedrooms are generous, east-facing and naturally cool through the afternoon, with two linen presses for storage.
The recently renovated kitchen features a dishwasher, soft-close drawers, corner cupboards and a walk-in pantry. The kitchen also serves the raised timber deck verandah with sweeping property views and shaded outdoor dining. The bathroom offers both shower and bath with a newly installed vanity, while the laundry has direct outside access and its own second "mud room" shower. Extras include Philips Hue smart lighting throughout main rooms, roller blinds (remote-controlled in the living room). See the Virtual Tour for all these indoor features.
A powered double garage and shed offer excellent workshop and storage space - the garage shelters three cars, includes a workbench, four levels of shelving, and has a 20-amp supply for welding. The garden shed adds heritage charm near the outdoor raised fire pit and BBQ.
The established native front garden hosts over 20 Australian flora species and abundant birdlife (60+ species recorded this year), watered by a 25,000-litre underground tank with new lining, solar pump and hose. The rear garden includes two vegetable patches, fruit trees and roses.
