You can't help but fall in love with this truly charismatic colonial residence that offers plenty of space, multiple outdoor living options and so much more than you'd expect. Situated in the tightly held estate 'Petrie On Pine', you'll easily see why homes in here are rarely available and when they are, they tend to sell at lightening speeds. You'll first notice just how close you are to the central business hub of Petrie where the new University, train station, local school and shops are only a short walk away. The estate is leafy, serene and whisper quiet…and without question, Ladners Court is easily considered to be one of the best streets with upmarket homes on almost every block. Number 10 is towards the top on the right hand side and before you even set foot on the generous 942m2 allotment, you'll realize that the distant mountain views will create a backdrop that will sooth your soul after a hard day's work. Ascend the front stairs and you'll first discover the enormous wrap around deck – the ideal place to enjoy a morning coffee (and this is just the first of three external living areas for you to enjoy). Head inside and the first thing you'll notice is the stunning hardwood polished timber floors that lead you right into the enormous open plan living and meals area – the ideal space to relax with your family in complete comfort. The huge kitchen is the feature of this area and offers an attractive tiled splash back, a walk-in pantry, lots of bench space and cupboards, room (and plumbing0 for a double door fridge and a bevy of upmarket appliances that include an electric cook top, a stainless steel dishwasher, a stainless steel oven and a stainless steel rangehood. Open the glass slider and you'll find the lovely private deck that is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of chardonnay as you watch the sunset over the mountain range. Back inside, you'll soon discover the separate home theatre that offers surround sound wiring – a place that you could use in a variety of ways including a formal lounge or kids' retreat if you don't have the need for a home theatre. There's 4 very large bedrooms including the master bedroom that provides air-conditioning, a ceiling fan, direct access to the deck, a walk-in robe with a secret safe and a stylish ensuite with a shower, vanity and toilet. Bedroom 2 features a large built-in robe, air-conditioning and study desk whilst bedrooms 3 and 4 each provide air-conditioning, a built-in robe and ceiling fan. The main bathroom is equally as impressive and offers a gorgeous vanity as well as a separate shower and bath whilst there's also a walk-in linen cupboard, a separate toilet and a separate laundry. A really handy addition is the hidden ceiling attic with ample storage room, power and lights for all of your extra items. You'll head out the back and arrive the third living area – the fabulous rear pergola with pavilion style roof that's the ideal place to entertain many over a sizzling BBQ. On this side of the home, there's also a kids' play area with synthetic turf, a sand pit and swing set and if you climb the stairs, you'll find a delightful private area at the very top of the block that is the perfect place to enjoy a wine with your loved one as you take in the light breezes and mountain views…and perhaps this is the ideal place to install an outdoor spa. Head downstairs and this is where you'll really be blown away – whilst it would seem that there's a remote double lock-up garage, there's actually space for 4 cars under the home with drive-through access. There's also a separate toilet and basin as well as a huge separate rumpus room or study with air-conditioning, a ceiling fan, a built-in cupboard and large desk meaning that this room could also be the perfect office or hobby room. You'll love the amount of space under the home and as it does offer legal height, there's oodles of potential to build in and create more living space – imagine how big this home could be with a little money invested! Other notable features include… • Crimsafe screens • Drop-down blinds on the deck • Fresh paint – both external and internal • 5 KW solar system • Storage locker • Colorbond roof with whirlybirds • Heat pump hot water system • Space under the deck for a caravan • Space at the front for a trailer • 2 x 5000 litre water tanks that are plumbed to the exterior taps used to irrigate the yard This is a residence that will be very hard to outgrow and given the style, the condition, the position and the myriad of extra features, it is bound to attract strong interest.
