Set within the tranquil Sophia Waters Estate, this Allam Homes build delivers easy family living with a modern edge and a prized north-facing backyard that keeps the interiors bright and welcoming all day long. Laid out across a well-considered single level, the home strikes a smart balance between togetherness and downtime, with two separate living zones and a floorplan that places the main bedroom and ensuite up front, while the kids' bedrooms and family bathroom sit quietly to the rear.

At the centre, an island kitchen brings everyone together, connecting open plan living and dining with a separate lounge or media room ready for movie nights. A 900mm gas stove, dishwasher and walk-in pantry make hosting feel effortless, while the tiled alfresco, fitted with Ziptrak blinds, acts like an extra living room you'll use year-round. Ducted a/c, ceiling fans, and 18 panel rooftop solar system with battery, add everyday comfort and keep running costs sensible. Outside, landscaped retaining walls and a secure lawn create a low-fuss space where kids and pets can play freely.

Sophia Waters makes the most of its elevated setting, with generous open spaces and thoughtful landscaping woven throughout the estate. Proposed Maitland Council plans for playing fields, walking tracks and cycleways promise to further strengthen the community feel. And with the upcoming Chisholm Plaza set to bring supermarkets, cafs, a tavern, gym, childcare and more, this is a location that's only getting better with time.
