On a rare occasion does the home make as much of a statement as the location, and this is such a home. Rivergum Drive is not only the most coveted street in new Highton but perhaps one of the top 10 in all of Geelong and for good reason. This particular home offers all the benefits of this location, literally at your backdoor, with direct access to the walking path that connects you to Buckley Falls, Barwon River, Queens Park, Newtown and beyond.
Touring the home, the experience is immediately one of quality and clever design, focusing on the lush surroundings and stunning northern light that streams through the entire home. A true credit to the master builder Topic Homes for the design and build quality. On entry, you are greeted with the lovely spotted gum flooring, a jaw-dropping view of the split-level design and an ideally placed master bedroom which offers space and a stunning easterly outlook over the garden to the bush-like scenery as a backdrop.
The home further impresses as you head toward the kitchen and open-plan living. The design focus is clearly on natural light, practicality, openness and flair. The stunning kitchen offers an island bench and angled secondary bench with a cleverly tucked away and spacious walk-in pantry giving it a unique flair. The open-plan living is spacious and functional, and takes advantage of the expansive views with a large dining area cleverly set back to the north to provide an almost outdoor feel.
Once you head outside the home opens up to the stunning natural backdrop with multiple vantage points to enjoy. Either from the large private courtyard or the Gazebo, there are many options for you to sit and enjoy the serene outlook. Set on 1,030m2 (approx.) of land you will find ample space for the family to enjoy, a home that truly keeps on giving.
