Auction
Auction Location: On Site
Offered for sale for the very first time, 5 Martens Crescent is a home with a wonderful story. Designed from the outset around family space and liveability, it has been cherished by the same owners since new and now awaits another family to make it their own.
Set behind beautiful established gardens, the home's elevated position creates a lovely sense of arrival. A covered front patio provides a peaceful place to sit and enjoy the leafy, mountain outlook, while inside, the generous front lounge captures the same views and offers a wonderfully comfortable first living space.
The floorplan is a standout, providing an abundance of room for family life. Beyond the lounge, the centrally positioned kitchen is surrounded by two dedicated dining and family spaces, creating a practical and connected heart to the home. The kitchen offers excellent storage, a pantry and electric cooking, with its original character presenting an exciting opportunity to personalise over time.
At the rear, the enclosed sunroom is a particularly special addition. Wrapped in glass and enjoying the home's northerly rear aspect, it captures beautiful natural light and garden views, creating an inviting extra living or entertaining space throughout the seasons.
Four bedrooms are positioned together on the main level, all with built robes, including the main bedroom with its own ensuite. A clever two-way family bathroom with separate bath and shower services the remaining bedrooms, complemented by a separate WC and dedicated laundry.
Downstairs adds another dimension to the home, with a substantial separate rumpus room and additional bathroom – ideal for teenagers, movie nights, a games room, home office or guest retreat. The rumpus room presents a great opportunity for guest accommodation, or easy conversion to a self-contained residence with space for a kitchenette and an external door. The oversized double garage provides internal access, additional storage and excellent practicality for busy family life.
Outside, the established gardens beautifully frame the home, with greenery to both front and rear and an irrigation system taking away the hard work. The backyard enjoys its sunny northerly orientation and is home to the solar-heated swimming pool, creating a private setting for long summer days and relaxed family entertaining.
Mostly original yet beautifully cared for, there is a warmth and authenticity here that is increasingly hard to find. Comfortable to enjoy from day one, it also presents an exciting opportunity to gradually modernise and make your own, supported by a substantial, thoughtfully designed floorplan that has served one family so well for more than five decades.
Complete with ducted gas heating and an elevated position in one of Weston's established streets, the home is conveniently located close to Cooleman Court, local schools, parks and the many amenities that make Weston Creek such an enduring family favourite.
After a lifetime of memories with one family, 5 Martens Crescent is ready for its next chapter.
