Within a lush woodland setting in a peaceful neighbourhood, the front garden and long driveway to the entrance offers both a verdant escape from the world and a warm welcome to the home that awaits you. Beautifully landscaped with native plants, mature trees, lawn area, plus places to sit and soak up the birdsong and tranquility, it leads to a turning circle with double garage and ample parking. Designed by the renowned architect Jack Clarke (a former AFL Hall of Fame player and Essendon Captain who co-founded ClarkeHopkinsClarke and also collaborated with Robyn Boyd) and built in 1968, the property has been extensively renovated in recent years. The result is a captivating home awash with light, thanks to the multitude of picture windows and glass doors providing a connection with the natural surroundings outside, while high ceilings, white walls, clean lines and elegant Tasmanian Oak flooring throughout give the home a tranquil ambience which is immediately apparent on entering. To the left of the foyer there's a large living and dining room with split system RC/AC while sliding doors open to extensive decking and patio within a landscaped garden, offering a peaceful space for relaxing or entertaining family and friends. With a modern farmhouse feel, the central kitchen provides abundant storage, built-in AEG double oven and microwave, Bosch dishwasher and 900mm 5-burner gas cooktop, plus timber benchtops and a sliding window that functions as a serving hatch to the alfresco, ideal for sharing food and conversation with your guests. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cosy sitting room with RC/AC, a wood stove, built-in bookshelves and clerestory windows, perfect as a winter snug. All 5 bedrooms have BIRs, beginning with the main at the front of the home which has a full ensuite, while a hall accesses 2 bedrooms, a family bathroom with bath, shower, and vanity, plus separate toilet. In addition, the fitted laundry opens to the garden and also leads to a 2nd hall where you'll discover 2 further bedrooms. The home boasts hydronic heating throughout, ceiling fans, internal garage access, some double glazing, plus a large workshop, and a secure cat enclosure. Close to prestigious private and public schools, this lovely location is also just minutes from shops, cafés and beautiful beaches.
