A stand of silver birches mixed with other mature exotics, standard roses, massed cottage plant beds, sweeping lawns and a circular driveway deliver street appeal to this large homestead on 4065 square metres.
The story continues out back where a pair of timber arbours (one draped in wisteria, the other in potato vine) draw the eye to different views.
Pretty boxed gardens, a pebbled area with a bridge over a pond, dense planting along the back fence and enough elevated lawn to bash around a cricket ball combine for a backyard that’s aesthetic and family-friendly.
The house has plenty of family-friendliness, too. Four bedrooms include the main with walk-through wardrobe to an en suite with heat lamp. Others have built-in wardrobes and ceiling fans.
Large living zones are layed out to separate adults and children.
Along with an open study near the front door, there’s a lounge room with wood heater, family room with pergola access, and a meals area. The kitchen has timber-look cupboards, microwave nook, dual-tier servery to the meals section, a wall oven, 900mm gas cooktop and dishwasher.
Entertainment and relaxation are well catered for with a pitched-roof pergola above coloured concrete paving. Enclosed with lattice and shadecloth and beautified with tree ferns and other greenery, this is a cool summer spot in which to gather.
Children can collect eggs from the chook pen and harvest from a boxed vegie gardens.
There’s a big Colorbond shed with dual roller doors, a garage with storage room and steel pergola for boat or caravan parking.
Werribee River walking trails are at the end of the street, primary schools are a walk away and it’s a three-minute drive to the station.
