This magnificent Bolwarra property offers the complete package, with a tree-studded 1,764sqm block, expansive six-bedroom house, lovely inground pool and beautifully designed interior that melds modern neutral colours with a touch a traditional country style. Located at the end of a quiet road not far from the banks of the Hunter River, the property offers peace and tranquility with absolute privacy from the neighbours and a large shady backyard for children to explore. The two-storey home has an attractive street presence, with a classic brick and tile façade, wide wraparound verandah and landscaped front yard beautifully shaded by a well-established feature tree. The home's inviting ambience continues inside, where a neutral colour scheme and abundance of windows ensure the rooms feel light and bright, while timber accents give the home a touch of traditional country warmth and texture throughout. The family-friendly design of the home creates a clear separation between the living and sleeping zones, with five bedrooms including the master suite on the upper level, while a series of spacious living areas occupy the ground floor. A sixth bedroom is also located downstairs next to the powder room, making it ideal as a guest bedroom or private space for older teens. The bedrooms are all well-sized, with built-in wardrobes in four of them and a double-sided walk-in wardrobe with doors to neatly conceal their contents in the master. Two of the bedrooms also feature built-in desks adjoining the wardrobes, making them ideal for older children who need a quiet place to study. The master suite is a bright and spacious room, with a beautifully-styled modern ensuite complete with stone benchtop on the vanity, floor-to-ceiling tiles and semi-frameless shower. The family bathroom is also located on the upper level of the house and features a practical three-way configuration with an oversized vanity with stone benchtop, floor-to-ceiling tiles, separate bath, semi-frameless shower, linen cupboard and a separate toilet. The home's ground floor is perfect for large families looking for somewhere to gather together as well as individual spaces where different members of the family can enjoy their own peace and privacy. A large study at the front of the home would make an ideal home office or children's homework space, with access from the entry hallway as well as from the kitchen, while the large living room opposite features double timber entry doors that allow it to be closed off for the perfect home theatre experience. An external door opening onto the side verandah makes this the ideal room for entertaining, while decorative cornices, a ceiling rose and chandelier give it a touch of period character. The spacious kitchen melds heritage-style soft-closing cabinetry with a lovely marble-look laminate benchtop for a timeless yet contemporary finish, while stainless steel appliances ensures it has all the modern luxuries needed to cater for a large family. A breakfast bar creates a connection between the kitchen and adjoining dining room that can double as a servery when dishing up the family meal, while internal access from the attached double garage makes unloading the groceries onto the bench quick and easy. The dining room flows seamlessly through a wide doorway into the vast rear family room, the hero of this home's living spaces with exposed beams on the ceilings, a cosy combustion fire for cool winter evenings, stunning timber floorboards and banks of floor-to-ceiling windows that perfectly frame the lush green outlook and view over the pool. Sliding glass doors provide direct access to the backyard and the paved open alfresco area, which provides an ideal place to sit and watch the children splash around in the nearby inground swimming pool. Established lawn and gardens, flourishing shade trees, a second detached double garage and an expansive backyard complete the long list of this property's inclusions, while its ideal location less than 10 minutes from the bustling Maitland city centre and Levee precinct adds to its outstanding appeal.
