11 Raphael Court, Scoresby, Vic 3179

Don’t be jealous of people posting about their European vacations. Here’s a chance at a permanent ‘Little Italy’ with a garden of grapevines, figs, olives, bay leaves and mulberries.

The grand single level entertainer offers room for families to grow with 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 living areas and a central dining space with its own buffet.

Where the property really comes to life is across its wraparound back deck which overlooks the pizza oven and mini orchard – forming the perfect backdrop for summer BBQs or wood-fired pizza in winter.

A magnificent kitchen lets you gaze across the deck while enjoying freedom of movement across its galley design, with premium appliances at your disposal including a Bosch dishwasher, Westinghouse oven and grill and gas cooktop.

Families wanting zoned areas for privacy will appreciate a master bedroom in its own private corner with lovely garden outlooks, a walk-in-robe, Federation styled ensuite and an adjoining bedroom ideal as a nursery.

The rear bedroom wing offers queen sized robed bedrooms and a family bathroom with separate toilet.

All in all, it’s an impressively-sized and versatile floor plan – bright with light across the west facing front lounge, and seamlessly connected between the family room and deck to enhance indoor-outdoor flow.

The 752sqms (approx.) property has a double remote garage, central heating, evaporative cooling, hardwood floors, and a slow combustion wood heater to set up the family close to Eastlink, St Judes, Scoresby Primary and Secondary, Aldi, village shops, Chesterfield Farm and the exciting new upgrade of Westfield Knox.
