Built in 2022 and positioned on 521sqm, this four-bedroom, three-bathroom home offers a modern layout with strong family appeal. The floorplan includes two ensuites, two separate living areas, a central open-plan kitchen, and an easy connection to the alfresco.
The backyard has been designed to be functional and enjoyable, with a grassed area that provides space for children, pets, or relaxed outdoor living, while still keeping maintenance manageable.

The Home
From the moment you step inside, the home feels fresh, open, and well considered. The 2022 build gives buyers the benefit of modern design, contemporary finishes, and a layout suited to how families live today. At the centre of the home is the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area, creating a natural hub for day-to-day life. The kitchen is a clear highlight, finished with waterfall-edge benchtops, quality appliances, generous storage, and a large island bench that works just as well for busy mornings as it does for entertaining.
A second living room adds valuable separation, giving families the option of a media room, kids' retreat, or quieter space away from the main living zone. Accommodation is a real strength, with four bedrooms and three bathrooms in total. The master bedroom includes its own ensuite, while the guest suite also features a private ensuite, making it ideal for extended family, older children, visiting guests, or buyers wanting additional privacy within the home.
The remaining bedrooms are well-sized and serviced by the main bathroom, with the bathrooms finished in floor-to-ceiling tiles for a clean and modern look. Ducted air conditioning provides comfort throughout the seasons, while the higher ceilings add to the sense of space across the home.
Outside, the alfresco extends the living space and creates an easy setting for outdoor dining, weekend barbecues, or relaxed afternoons at home. The 521sqm block has been well utilised, offering practical outdoor space without compromising the internal layout.
A double garage completes the package, rounding out a home that delivers modern finishes, flexible accommodation, and a highly convenient Thornton location.
