Through the front door is a welcoming hallway, giving excellent privacy and keeping the rest of the house free from the eyes of casual visitors. This, and all the public areas have ceramic tiles, both cooling and easy to clean.

To the right of the hallway, and through an arch is the open plan formal lounge and dining area. This is carpeted with both air conditioning and a fan for additional cooling, with views across the front gardens and access into the undercover entertainment gazebo.

To the left of the front door, a passage way meanders past bedroom 5, which would be the ideal office or study, and an internal access into the large double, remote controlled garage.

The passage continues to the massive family/meals/kitchen area, again cooled by a large fan. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances including a ceramic cooktop, extractor, oven and, of course, a dishwasher. The kitchen is serviced with heaps of cupboard space, including a built in pantry. There is also access from the family area to the undercover gazebo outside.

There are 4 more bedrooms in the accommodation wing, all carpeted with fans and built in wardrobes. The master bedrooms has full air conditioning and a modern ensuite that includes a 1 size glass shower, contemporary vanity and a toilet.

The accommodation wing is serviced by a main bathroom with a glass shower, bath and modern fittings. Next to this is a separate toilet for your convenience and both of these share a vanity with additional cupboards.

There is also a laundry room with it's own storage and a linen cupboard. A door gives you egress to the pebbled drying area on the side of the house.

Outside there is 4m x 6m undercover entertainment area, fully tiled and ideal for entertaining guests or family during those warm evenings. There is access to this area from the formal lounge, the family room and even the master bedrooms where the Eastern aspect makes it ideal for that morning coffee.

The garden is fully fenced and low maintenance, with a large water tank collecting any excess rain water.


Mt Cotton is a a family community, conveniently close to the Super IGA/local shopping centre, Sirromet Winery, Venman Bushland Park, bike ways, transport, Day Care Centres, Mount Cotton State Primary School and Victoria Point catchment, Redland Bay Golf Club/Carbrook Golf Club, the beautiful Moreton Bay and only a short barge ride to Stradbroke Island. Mount Cotton offers the best of both worlds, with easy access to the Brisbane CBD, which is just 40 minutes away, 30 minutes to the Brisbane Airport & 50 minutes to the Gold Coast.

The whole area has the benefit of being new, and therefore subject to the demands of modern council regulations with heaps of "green" zones ( I counted 5 within a couple of minutes), a major shopping centre nearby, schools, playgrounds and heaps of other infrastructure.

The location of this home is absolutely unbeatable. Only a short drive to Mount Cotton Central shopping centre. The Hyperdome Shopping Centre, schools, the two most popular golf courses in the Southern suburbs (Riverlakes and Carbrook), and access to the M1.
