This expansive 4-bedroom family home, perfectly positioned on a large, elevated block on a leafy street, is close to shops, schools and nature.
As you step onto the front porch, be sure to turn around. The uninterrupted westerly views across to Mount Taylor and the Brindabella ranges are a stunning feature.

The classic electric kitchen features a convenient breakfast bar by the window and opens onto the family room, ideal for everyday meals and dinner parties alike.
The reverse cycle split system air conditioners ensure you're comfortable year-round and the attached garage provides security and convenience for your vehicles as well as extra storage.
Venture outside to discover the expansive backyard which features extensive hedging and mature trees. The many nooks and crannies, plus garden paths beckon exploration - a haven for children, pets and entertaining. It's the ideal setting for weekend barbecues or to simply unwind in your private outdoor oasis.
