The Snapshot
Backyard goals? Unlocked.

Side access seals the deal, with an oversized concrete bay that comfortably accommodates a boat, trailer, or extra vehicles.
The Home
At 15 Sunset Drive, life feels beautifully sorted. Set on a 527sqm block with a fresh Hampton-style faade, this single-level home nails that sweet spot between polished presentation and practical family living, with the added bonus of space for the "toys" (boat, trailer, you name it) and a backyard made for weekends.
Step inside and you're greeted by a bright, contemporary tone from the outset. The floorplan flows with ease, offering multiple living zones so everyone can spread out without stepping on each other's toes. There's a dedicated media room with plantation shutters and a sliding barn door, perfect for movie nights, gaming sessions, or simply closing the door on the rest of the world for an hour.
At the centre, the kitchen is designed to keep pace with real life. Stone benchtops, breakfast bar seating, and a walk-in pantry make it as functional as it is good-looking. It all opens to the dining and lounge zone, where plantation shutters and roller blinds add privacy, and sliding doors invite you straight out to the alfresco.
Outside is where this home really starts to show off. The covered entertaining area overlooks established lawns, gardens, and an above-ground pool, securely fenced so you can relax while the kids splash and play.
Four bedrooms cater to families, upsizers, and those who work from home. The master suite includes plantation shutters, a walk-in robe, and a stylish ensuite with black tapware and a stone-top vanity. Bedrooms 2, 3 and 4 are well-proportioned with robes (including a walk-in to bedroom 2), ceiling fans in bedrooms 2 and 3, and plenty of power points.
For the must-haves: split system air-conditioning and a 10kW north-facing solar system are all here, along with FTTP NBN. The double garage offers internal access, epoxy flooring, lighting, and storage, while side access delivers a huge 20m x 3.5m concrete parking bay for the boat or trailer (2.8m at its narrowest).
And when it's time to head out, you're zoned for Thornton Public School and Francis Greenway High School, with Thornton Shopping Village around five minutes away and easy links to Maitland, Stockland Green Hills, the hospital, and beyond.
