This is one of those rare homes that has it all, from unparalleled style and high-quality finishes to generous spaces and above all, a leafy aspect and such serene surrounds that you will barely be able to believe you're still in the suburbs!
Built in 1995 and tastefully updated throughout recent years, this home makes a statement from the moment you cross the threshold. The open-plan central living space greets you with soaring vaulted ceilings, original solid timber posts and full-height windows to the front, flooding the home with light and a sense of grandeur but also a feeling of warmth that is echoed throughout the main level enhanced by original hardwood floors, newly resurfaced to a stunning finish. Chefs and entertainers will delight in the spacious, modern kitchen with its seamless flow to the living / dining and out onto the front deck which offers both covered and alfresco outdoor living. Meanwhile the fully self-contained granny flat promises so much flexibility as a separate living space for the kids, a home for the grandparents or even a tidy sublet opportunity to help pay off the mortgage!
Outside is nothing short of idyllic. Set on an elevated 800sqm block and enveloped by trees frequented by tawny frogmouths, king parrots and other native birds, this home enjoys leafy views out to Twilight Street Park, cool breezes and close contact with the beautiful local wildlife. Add to that the property's location at the end of a very peaceful cul-de-sac perfect for families with young kids and just 50m away from the aforementioned park complete with sprawling lawns and an off-leash dog area just beyond, and you have a home that checks every box for serene, stylish family living.
Family homes with such strong design and flexibility for living in this location do not often come to market, and when they do, they don't stay long - so be very speedy to view!
