A quaint country cottage in its former life, this family home has undergone a few changes and additions over the years. Sitting on 771 square metres, and now with twice the area added on, a large back veranda and lovely landscaped pool and entertaining out back, there’s room to spare.

Plenty of character remains in the older portion of the home, with vertical slat walls and coloured lead light windows in the French doors to the 2 bedrooms that run along this hall. The front room with large picture window overlooks the front porch, a relaxing place to sit and watch the world go by.

Moving beyond to the more modern addition takes you to heart of the home, straight to the kitchen. An island bench, as well as breakfast bar makes it a comfortable place to prepare meals while socialising – just beyond is the second living area and formal dining. This large area is fully tiled and features a gas fireplace for those cool winter evenings.

Out a large sliding door is the pool area, complete with gazebo for extra sun protection and flat lawn beyond. Fully landscaped with palms and tropical plants, you can laze all day in this leafy oasis.

Down the side is the houses’ gravel drive way with double car garage at the end, as well as covered carport parking for two more.

This home is centrally located in the quiet town of Bilambil – just across from the store, backing onto the local school ground, and a stone’s throw from the creek. To view now, check out the virtual tours.
