It is a privilege to be able to offer this substantial family home in Lake Gardens to the market for the first time in many years. From the moment you enter, the abundance of space is evident at every level. Step through the front entrance and to the right you will find the massive formal dining and/or lounge room, featuring a gas log fireplace and windows to the north and west. To the left is the generous study or a genuine 5th bedroom with built in robe, and straight ahead the imposing stairway to the upper level. Staying on the ground floor, walking through the double doors will lead you to the expansive open plan family living zone where you can cook, eat and relax together. The kitchen features stone benchtops, a full array of appliances and loads of cupboard and pantry space. Even washing the dishes is a pleasure with a lovely view to the back garden! Beyond the family living area takes you to a beautifully proportioned living room perfect as a games room or parent's retreat. Both living areas have direct access via sliding doors to the undercover outdoor living space creating even more options for social gatherings and family fun. The back yard offers plenty of space in a private, peaceful setting that has matured over time into a delightful place to sit and relax, with the oversized double garage/workshop also having direct access to the garden via pedestrian and roller doors. Back inside and up the stairs you will find four very generous bedrooms, the master suite being huge and boasting one of the biggest ensuites you will ever see, complete with double vanities, large corner spa bath and a separate toilet. The walk-in-robe is proportional to the bedroom with loads of space. The family bathroom is also spacious with shower, bath, vanity and storage. A separate toilet completes the family suite. To complete the first floor, there is yet another living space that is perfect for children to just 'chill out' in or would make a great space to do their homework! This stunning home comes complete with ducted central heating, ducted vacuum system, split system air conditioning, quality soft furnishings throughout and of course a location that speaks for itself with Lake Wendouree, Ballarat's best schools, BALC, Wendouree Train Station and an abundance of shopping options at your doorstep.
