Built by Masterton Homes in 2012, the well-maintained home feels as good as new, with a light and bright interior enhanced by its neutral colour scheme and 2.7m ceilings. The home features a practical, family-friendly design, with the master suite separated from the remaining three bedrooms for added peace and privacy. A large room with a spacious walk-in wardrobe and beautifully-appointed ensuite, the master suite offers a tranquil retreat that is both practical and luxurious. The fourth bedroom, or potential home office space for those who don't need the added sleeping accommodation, is located further along the entry hall, while the remaining two bedrooms are accessible via a central hallway towards the rear of the house. A well designed laundry and a generously-proportioned family bathroom are conveniently located between the two rear bedrooms, with the laundry featuring external access to the side yard. Various shades of grey and bright, crisp whites have been used throughout the home to create a contemporary style that has wide appeal, with light-coloured floor tiles giving the entry and central living area a sleek, modern look, while plush grey carpet makes the bedrooms and home theatre feel luxuriously cosy. Textured floor tiles in a darker grey tone add a dash of drama to both the ensuite and main bathroom, with a similar tone used in the stone benchtop on the vanity. These contrast nicely against the white wall tiles and vanity cupboards, while semi-recessed rectangular ceramic basins add to the overall contemporary styling. A predominance of white in the central living area ensures it feels bright and spacious, while high gloss grey cabinetry set against sleek white stone benchtops makes the kitchen pop. Quality stainless steel appliances and a gooseneck chrome mixer on the double bowl sink add to the contemporary finish, while a spacious pantry and long island bench with breakfast bar provide added functionality. The kitchen sits to one side of the expansive open plan living area looking over the large dining and living spaces, making the room perfect for connected family living, while two large sets of double glass sliding doors provide seamless access to covered outdoor areas at the side and rear of the home for easy entertaining. The rear alfresco area has two ceiling fans, a heater, and a gas bayonet, making it the perfect spot to enjoy year-round barbecues, while the side patio's easterly aspect allows you to sit and enjoy the warmth of the morning sun with a cup of coffee. A separate home theatre room provides an additional internal area for entertaining, while a cavity sliding door can close this space off to create a more private relaxation space. A darker colour palette and blockout blind have been used in this room to enhance the movie-watching experience, with a data point ensuring plug-in reliability for home streaming services. Ducted air conditioning, ceiling fans and plenty of storage options add to the appeal of this home, while the oversized attached double garage provides plenty of room to keep two vehicles safe and secure. Sitting on a good-sized corner block, the fully fenced property features side gates for easy drive-through access to a concrete slab, while a landscaped yard provides plenty of lawn for children to run around and play. Established gardens, fruit trees and raised vegetable gardens provide plenty of options for the gardener in the family, while connection to the recycled water network makes it easier to keep the yard looking lush and green. Located in the popular suburb of Gillieston Heights, the property is ideally placed to make the most of the local amenities, including children's playgrounds, sporting fields and a primary school, while the attractions of Maitland's bustling city centre are less than five minutes' drive. Easy access to key transport networks including the Hunter Expressway also keep you connected to the wider region, with Newcastle and the vineyards less than 40 minutes away.
