Elegant contemporary style meets thoughtful practicality in this one-off original home that truly ticks all the boxes for modern family living. There's no need to do a thing. Just move in and enjoy the tranquil setting on this quiet street, with plenty of space for the kids to play and grow in the sunshine of the north-facing backyard. Set on a generous parcel of land covering 1026 square metres, this 10 year-old solid brick rendered home flows in effortless fashion over its 27 squares. The convenient location is just a short stroll to Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre; with Deakin University, the soon-to-open Epworth hospital and Waurn Ponds train station also nearby. Your mind and body will thank you for the peaceful scenery, fresh air and exercise available through the property's private gate which directly accesses the lovely native bushland setting of Waurn Ponds' walking track. Inside, the home has been freshly painted in white, complimented by neutral tones, with the occasion vibrant splash of colour. High ceilings and extra-height doors add to the feeling of spaciousness and the curved feature ceiling in the open plan kitchen/living adds a chic design element to the heart of this home. The modern kitchen beautifully juxtaposes the earthly stone and wood elements of its island bench, and glass-covered wood splashback, with modern cabinetry, including the sleek look of an integrated dishwasher. The kitchen also features an electric oven, gas cooktop and elegant pendant lighting over the breakfast bar. A luxuriously large gas log fire with feature mantle and tasteful built-in cabinetry - including a buffet cupboard in the dining area and home theatre cabinets in the living - are further testament to the thoughtfulness of this design. Newly carpeted throughout, the home also features a master bedroom with walk-in-robe and large ensuite with corner spa. There are two further bedrooms, a study or fourth bedroom with built-in desk (which would perfectly suit as a home office); family bathroom, large well-equipped laundry; and ample storage throughout. The family room has solid wood flooring and windows looking out to the north backyard, ideal for supervising small children playing indoors and out. Or why not use this large room as an entertaining space, complete with built-in bar, including sink, and doors leading to an outdoor deck. A large undercover alfresco area with cafe blinds means family and friends can gather for a barbecue all year round. The yard has ample space for a hit of cricket or a kick of footy. The low maintenance native garden is an attraction for birdlife; or keep your own (of the flightless egg-laying variety) in the purpose-built chook run. An over-sized double garage with space for storage and workshop completes the picture for this perfect family home. Organise your inspection today.
