With beautiful light-filled rooms and an expansive open plan layout, this Gillieston Heights home feels bright and inviting.
Designed for entertaining with plenty of space for large families, the home has been well finished with a neutral colour palette that both enhances the sense of space while also providing a blank canvas for the next owner to style to their taste.
Large format light floor tiles provide a seamless connection that flows from the front entry through to the central living space, while the home's four bedrooms benefit from the added insulation offered by carpet.
The neutral tones continue with a classic white-on-white kitchen, set off by sleek 20mm stone benchtops, a glossy subway tiled splashback and modern stainless steel appliances.
Underbench and overhead cabinetry as well as a double-door built-in pantry ensure the kitchen offers plenty of storage options, while breakfast bar seating on the peninsula bench is the perfect spot for a casual meal or after-school snack while also helping to create definition between the kitchen and adjoining dining and living areas.
With plenty of space for a dining table and lounge setting, this open plan space will ensure the family can remain connected while still being involved in their own separate activities, with sliding glass doors allowing you to seamlessly extend your living area outside for year-round alfresco-style entertaining.
The main living room provides a second space where families can sit back and relax together with plenty of area to spread out, providing the perfect setting for movie nights with easy access to the kitchen to whip up a batch of popcorn.
The home's four bedrooms are split into two separate wings, with the master bedroom and second bedroom at the front of the house and two remaining bedrooms grouped around the bathroom and laundry at the rear.
This configuration would be ideal for parents with a baby or young child who they want to keep close to their room, or alternatively provide the perfect office space for those working from home who didn't need the fourth bedroom accommodation.
Built-in wardrobes in the children's bedrooms and a walk-in wardrobe in the master suite provide plenty of storage, with additional options including a built-in linen and broom cupboard in the laundry and a wide vanity with cupboards and drawers in the bathroom.
LED downlights and vertical blinds have been used throughout the home for a modern, minimalist look, while a reverse-cycle split system air conditioner in the main lounge room provides climate-controlled comfort.
Located on a tidy 601sqm block with established turf and gardens, as well as a timber retaining wall to create two usable areas in the fully fenced backyard, this property offers safe, secure yard space for young children or pets.
Ideally positioned in the boutique Gillieston Grove residential estate, the property is close to all local amenities, with playgrounds, sporting facilities, a large new childcare centre and community hub all within a few minutes' drive making this ideal for families or the savvy investor.
A McDonalds restaurant nearby and a multimillion-dollar shopping complex set to be constructed provide added convenience, while Gillieston Heights is already home to an existing general store and bottle shop on Cessnock Road.
A five-minute drive to Maitland opens up a host of additional options including various shopping centres and supermarkets, recreational, cultural and commercial precincts and a revitalised city centre with a growing number of boutique retailers and well-regarded culinary options.
Gillieston Heights' central location and easy access to the Hunter Expressway also put you in touch with the region's major attractions and employment centres, with the world-renowned Hunter Valley vineyards less than 30 minutes away, while Newcastle's cosmopolitan beach lifestyle and thriving central business district is just a 40-minute commute.
