There’s no need to flick through the real estate books or internet sites for that perfect family home you’ve always wanted any longer. This one has it all. Let’s start with the neighbourhood. The Lilydale Lakes Estate is well established, yet is still modern and offers a range of home styles to keep the interest flowing. It’s close to schools, Main Street and Lilydale Lake where kids can be let loose to enjoy all it has to offer. It’s also a gateway to the Yarra Valley. Just 15 minutes up the road and some of the best wines in Australia can be given the taste test. Now for the home. It has everything, from 4 good sized bedrooms with robes, a spa en suite and large main bathroom with a double vanity, to extensive living spaces which offer flexibility to suit your needs. Tassie Oak floors connect the spaces beautifully, adding a richness and a practical appeal, whilst the feature cathedral ceilings offer the impression of space and a point of difference. The heart is definitely the kitchen. Updated with beautiful vinyl wrap cabinetry, glass splash backs, a large 900mm stainless gas oven, a dishwasher and views across the leafy neighbourhood, it’s a place to be enjoyed. The open plan is perfectly suited for a growing family who need to know the whereabouts of the kids at all times, with both living rooms divided by a feature brick wall and a Spinner fire. There’s also a formal dining area which could be utilised in various ways, including an open study or another sitting area. Out the back you’ll discover a brilliant covered deck which also attracts the views, water tanks (5000 litres), plenty of under house storage, a garden shed, double garage, fully irrigated front garden and lawn, external window blinds, and to save the best feature till last, solar electricity!! Other features include a monitored alarm system, split system cooling, ducted heating and a prime corner location.
