The 3 remaining bedrooms with BIR s and ceiling fans are fitted with north facing windows that allow amazing radiant morning sun to shine through. These rooms are located in the kids wing which also comprises a large lounge area with wood fire, ample storage and 3 piece bathroom. Although most of the house has been updated, the bathroom in the kids wing remains fitted with its original, retro style tiles- providing a contemporary edge, particularly when paired with the oversize, sunken bath.
The central dining and kitchen areas merge into one in an open plan scheme that is ideal for the family who loves to cook and spend time together. The kitchen features neutral timber tones and timeless design. Everything is within reach, offering maximum storage with a mix of cupboards, drawers and shelving.
Add to the mix a walk in pantry, a Neff double wall oven, electric cooktop, dishwasher and large island bench and you have the perfect area and facilities for entertaining. The streamlined timber framework in the dining area is complemented by a beautifully proportioned aquarium that is fascinating, mesmerizing and relaxing to watch.
The garden has been lovingly cultivated using two distinct styles the back area has a Cottage theme, with flowers and a relaxed, natural format. The front section has been landscaped in a formal garden style. A box hedge creates an ordered border for the water feature, whilst a row of ornamental pears create beautiful lines around the circular stone feature wall.
The outdoor expanse has areas to satisfy all age groups and interests. The kids are catered for with the flood-lit tennis court / basketball ring and loads of luscious green grass, whilst the adults can relax under the pergola. The 4 car garage is sure to appeal, especially as it is connected to a generous parking zone suitable for trailer storage and guest parking. This region also provides double gate access to a 3 acre (approx.) fully fenced paddock. The paddock includes a dam and is currently being used for horses. The well-known O Keefe Rail Trail borders the property (a cyclone gate provides direct access), enabling you to wander & explore natural bushland.
The thermal properties of the house allow it to be warm in winter and cool in summer. The full house verandah has been designed to provide shade, catch breezes and offer protection reducing the need to utilise the refrigerated air conditioning. A wood heater and built in fireplace provide enough heat to keep the entire house comfortable throughout the winter. However, if further heating is required there are two split systems and floor heating available.
