Situated on the high side of the court backing onto Crusoe Heights Reserve, this home makes it easy to forget you're in suburbia. The front enjoys the treed outlook of a well-established neighbourhood while the rear takes in a bushland vista. With no neighbours in sight, this home will be your own private retreat. The sheltered courtyard at the front of the home is a secluded spot to catch the morning sun with a cuppa in hand. When it's too cold outside, retreat to the living area and enjoy the comfort of plush carpet underfoot and a split system. The free-standing wood heater is ready to ramp up the ambience. Block out curtains, blind, pelmet and ceiling fan complete the comfort control measures. The adjoining dining room with its charcoal floor tiles ensures there'll be no need to fuss over spills. The tiles continue through to the large separate kitchen. More like a kitchen and a half! Cupboards galore, extensive black marble-look benchtops, and tile splashback throughout create an effective workspace for the home chef. The full height pantry with its dual concertina doors will easily hold all your cooking supplies. Gas cooktop, electric oven and stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher form the appliance list. Your microwave can settle in its own nook. Both the dining room and kitchen have views of the rear yard and the reserve beyond. A sliding door from the kitchen leads you out to experience the peace. The floor tiles, benchtops and generous storage have been extended to the laundry, bathroom, and separate toilet. The deep bath provides an opportunity to relax at the end of a demanding day. Direct access to the yard from the laundry will save you from trapsing washing through the home. All 3 bedrooms have block out curtains with pelmets, built-in robes, and carpet. The master boasts the luxury of a split system. Sheer blinds have been added to the east-facing bedrooms. The combination of garage and double carport supplies plenty of off-street parking and additional storage capacity. A gate atop the rear yard terrace provides direct access to Crusoe Heights reserve. Or you can opt for a leisurely 10-minute walk instead. Despite its leafy locale, this property is less than a 5-minute drive from Bendigo Homemaker Centre, Bunnings, and Lansell Square shopping mall.
