You can tell when something has been really loved and cared for, where a house is not just a house but a family home, where if the walls could speak they’d tell you a thousand feel-good stories. This is one such property where time has been spent making the little things bigger and the good things better.

This property is approximately 1.093ha (2.7 acres) in size and is fenced into a house yard and a paddock for horses or other livestock. It’s one huge kid’s playground if that’s what you’re after. It features views to the south and south-west.

It’s a one-owner home that is deceptively large and in excellent condition. It has five bedrooms, three of which have built-in robes. Each of the bedrooms has ceiling fans. It has both a tiled family room with combustion fire place and bar area. The large lounge room is a little more formal and is carpeted, has air conditioning and an open fireplace that is a feature of the room.

There are two undercover areas for entertaining. The one on the western side has a timber deck and is an excellent morning or winter area. The second area is paved and screened in (Queenslander room style) and is on the southern side so is more of a summer area.

Leading out from the second entertaining area is a separate building that has had various uses: craft/sewing room, teenage retreat, games room and storage room. It is big enough to be converted to granny flat (subject to council approval).

The property itself is located on Luskintyre Road which is on the northern outskirts of Lochinvar. It has lovely landscaped gardens and plenty of shade trees. There is a double garage with attached single carport that is perfect for a boat or caravan.
