In the main house, bathrooms and kitchens have been hit with the revamp stick, with the new flooring that flows seamlessly through many rooms a bright star. Looking for all the world like matte floor planks in oaken grey, the floors are actually porcelain tiles that deliver today’s aesthetic plus all-time liveability. Big tick.
Entry to the house is to a long walkway, along which are the fitted fourth bedroom, set up as a study with expansive work station and shelving; and the main bedroom. This has a walk-in robe and a sleek and recently completed en suite with walk-in shower and a bowl-basin on a Caesarstone-topped 2pac vanity.
The walkway then heads past a lounge room under a soaring ceiling, with clerestory windows admitting streams of northerly light, new grey carpet and an Archer wood heater. Next up is the large kitchen and meals zone. A waterfall Caesarstone island bench, a stack of Tassie oak cabinetry, an appliance cupboard, dishwasher and an Ilve 900mm cooker fit out the cooks’ domain.
Living areas just keep coming … next door, behind double sliders, is a spacious rumpus room that has the same textured vertical blinds as seen throughout. A four-door closet in here is one of many storage solutions all through.
Along a rear hallway are two fitted bedrooms that flank a smartly revamped bathroom and a large storage-rich laundry with Caesarstone bench. Ducted heating and superior ceiling and wall insulation are other indoor features.
The meals zone opens to a large covered (north-facing) alfresco area, while a gazebo perches in the back gardens beyond a full-width, south-facing verandah.
The 20×8-metre shed/workshop, accessed via a separate driveway, easily meets tradie and hobbyist needs. A pair of double garages (one with internal access), a 5kW solar system and 25,000-litre water tank are other drawcards.
