BEST OFFER BY 2:00PM ON MONDAY 28TH MARCH 2022 (UNLESS SOLD PRIOR) Escape the everyday humdrum of urban life in this magical north-facing family home that feels like a hidden oasis! Offering 5 bedrooms and multiple living areas, this warm and inviting two-storey residence has been freshly-painted internally and is privately-positioned on a rare 609m² of land surrounded by a canopy of established trees and lush gardens that provide a peaceful vista throughout. Featuring recently-refurbished Blackbutt timber flooring and exposed timber ceiling beams, the ground-floor offers an open-plan renovated kitchen flanked by an informal meals and family area on one side, and a games room on the other. The informal meals has reverse-cycle air conditioning and a built-in buffet and shelving for extra storage, and the family room features a fully-functioning potbelly for those cold winter nights. The games room has cathedral ceilings and double French doors that adjoin a lovely decked terrace, with direct access to the salt-water swimming pool, gazebo, and entertaining area at the front of the home. Completing the ground-floor are two bedrooms (both with built-in robes and brand-new carpet floor coverings), a renovated bathroom with stone bench tops and a separate bath and powder room, and a family laundry that leads to a rear grassed area and storage shed. Ascend the beautiful timber staircase in the family room, and you will find a living area with timber doors that open on to a north-facing balcony overlooking your secret garden sanctuary below. The master bedroom also offers direct access to the balcony, and features a high pitched roof, a walk-in robe, reverse-cycle air conditioning, and an adjoining modern bathroom with stone bench tops, spa bath, and separate W/C. The first-floor also has two minor bedrooms (both with reverse-cycle air conditioning). Private and secure with a remote vehicle gate, this surprising home offers a raft of additional features including photovoltaic panels, attic and understair storage, automatic reticulation, an upgraded swimming pool pump, chlorinator and filter, and your very own cubby house! Conveniently-located within the desirable Melville Primary and Melville Senior High School intake areas, this gorgeous family home is a unique blend of tranquil rural enclave and suburbia!
