The facade gives a hint to what’s within with its clean lines, large windows and subtle styling. The interior decor is based around a white, grey and black palette for a sophisticated style but the simple colour scheme also lends itself well to providing an excellent canvas to add a splash of colour for dramatic effect.
There are four bedrooms, the main with a walk-in robe leading to an en suite. Both bathrooms are fully tiled in grey with white fittings for a striking contrast and the main has a freestanding tub.
The fourth, smaller bedroom at the rear would also be suited to being a study, child’s play room or studio.
Living areas include a more formal area leading off the entry and a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining/living area opening to the backyard through full height sliding doors.
The kitchen has a long island bench under pendant lighting hanging from a bulkhead, stainless-steel appliances, glass splashback, oodles of storage including both drawer and cupboards as well as a large walk-in pantry with access to the garage.
A large under-roof entertaining area is perfect for outdoor dining and is angled north to capture plenty of winter sun.
As a near-new build, the outdoor areas are ready for the new owners to stamp their own statement, although simple lawns hold their own low-maintenance appeal.
Other amenities include nine-foot ceilings, a double, drive-through garage, alarm system, cooling and heating.
Aintree is a growing community roughly halfway between Melton and Caroline Springs shopping centres and has excellent open spaces and plenty of walking tracks. Also close to the Western Highway.
