Poised for family peace and privacy, this picturesque domain set on 6110sqm (approx) has all the hallmarks of a classic double-storey home, yet is so right for modern living. Displaying undeniable charm, enduring design blends superior family comfort and flexible accommodation with a lavish spaciousness that needs to be seen to be appreciated. Secluded amongst idyllic gardens in natural woodland surrounds, this tightly held residence also has daily necessities within easy reach, providing a family with country-like tranquillity in a very central locale.

Classically constructed with a solid brick lower level, the home's light colour palette and generous interior proportions convey a fresh, spacious feel throughout, while impressive detail such as delicate cornices, glass etched doors and original polished timber floors lend timeless character. With metres of windows on one end and a cosy wood fireplace on the other, the immense lounge and living room takes full advantage of pleasant leafy outlooks to the front and rear gardens. Adjoining is the light-filled dining area with recessed display cabinet, leading to open plan meals and an updated kitchen, fresh and charmingly ready to meet family demands with ample bench and storage space, stainless steel upright stove, Miele dishwasher and a massive walk-in pantry/storage room. Bathed in north-westerly light, the expansive front terrace and peaceful botanic setting are pure bliss for sunny breakfasts and dinner on balmy evenings, while the rear garden is a verdant paradise with stately established trees, conifers and colourful blooms. There's also an adorable kids' cubby house for hours of playful fun. Wake to the gentle sounds of birds singing around generously sized and robed bedrooms, some featuring front balcony access and all enhanced by treetop views. The vast master bedroom is classically appointed with a large walk-in robe and ensuite complemented by timber vanity and large shower. Additional highlights include spacious main bathroom with separate tub and shower, large study or additional bedroom, copious laundry, ducted gas heating/cooling, plentiful built-in storage, wood shed, garden shed, work studio, two rainwater tanks totalling 21,000 litres, secure single garage and plenty of off-street parking.
