A cherished home tucked away at the end of a quiet no-throughway street, where all you can hear is the call of birds and the spring grasses rustling, is as good as the best ‘secret garden’. The owner has lavished time and attention, indeed spared no expense, on this exquisitely presented family home, but now it is too large for her to look after.

As you step into the front foyer, a restful ambience is your first impression. The formal lounge or sitting room is a lovely space that looks into the surrounding gardens and has direct access to the outside entertaining area. This room is a cozy spot to sit by the gas heater and enjoy the peaceful surrounds. There is also a library, which overlooks the sitting room, making for a great room for a study or office.

The kitchen is ideal for any amount of hungry hordes, with a stainless steel gas stove and dishwasher, and a large pantry. For winter days there’s a mudroom for all the gumboots and wet weather gear with direct access to the lockup carport. In addition to the mudroom, there’s also a large well-appointed laundry. Both rooms have had new floor coverings installed recently.

The main bedroom looks on to the front garden and has built-in wardrobes, en suite, split system and ceiling fan; this could operate as a dedicated guest room. There are also two more good-sized bedrooms with ceiling fans and one with a built in robe.

The north facing family room is the perfect spot to spend time with family and friends, which has a split system and gas heating for year round comfort. There are doors leading to the outdoor entertainment area, which offer cool afternoon breezes, or you can just sit by the window and read, with an occasional visit from the bird life for company.

Remote control double carport provides access to the rear yard and single garage with concrete floor. The back garden is terraced and very well maintained. There is also a green house and fenced off veggie patch for the gardening devotees. The property also has solar panels offer energy relief.

Homes in this setting, on a block this size don’t come along often. There is so much more to explore on this 1514 square metre landscaped allotment, so you will need to leave plenty of time to absorb it all. Do bring the kids and their friends, because they’ll want to test out all the places they will be able to explore later, as the home is opposite the Autumn Gully reserve.

This charming property presents a lovely calmness, an inspection will impress!
