$980,000 - $1,050,000
Nine years of deliberate, passionate gardening have transformed this Macclesfield property into something that photographs cannot fully prepare you for. From the native-planted council verge all the way around to the hand-laid bluestone retaining walls at the rear, every square metre has been considered. Fully enclosed by 1.8m Goodneighbour fencing and framed by evergreen flowering ashes selected specifically to shade the lawn through summer, and alive with birdlife, this is a property where the land is as much the drawcard as the home sitting on it. The block spans approximately 1,200 square metres, with the native verge extending the usable outlook by hundreds, and a second driveway wide enough to handle a caravan or trade deliveries without a second thought.
Step inside this 2018 Metricon custom build and the kitchen sets the tone immediately. An all-black palette anchors a space built around a freestanding 900mm Bosch six-burner with a black glass dishwasher sourced specifically to match, topped by Night Sky Caesarstone benchtops extended beyond the original island footprint to maximise bench and storage space. The double sink with an upgraded mixer tap, the mirror-finish textured splashback, and a built-in pantry pull it all together.
The open-plan living and meals zone flows straight out through full-width stacker doors to the alfresco under the main roof, fitted with a composite eco-deck and a zip-track blind that locks the space down if the weather turns. A plumbed swim spa with heat pump sits just beyond, and the irrigated lawn, winding garden paths, and a native climber-covered pergola, frames the fire pit area giving the backyard a resort quality that comes from years of considered planting rather than a landscaper's quick fix. There is a gas point behind the entertainment unit, ready for a fireplace when the new owners decide the time is right. Comfort is assured via Ducted Reverse Cycle Air Conditioning throughout the floor plan.
The master bedroom runs a barn-style sliding door, full Screenaway block-out blinds, and a walk-in robe leading through to an ensuite with twin vanity, large mirror, and a semi-frameless shower. Bedrooms two and three are serviced by a generous main bathroom featuring a deep soaking bath, separate shower, and vanity, all finished with large-format tiles and downlights throughout. Floating floors run across the entire home, no carpet anywhere. The double garage carries an epoxy floor and remote panel door, with internal access, and the laundry side of the home has been cleverly adapted to hide away the houses utilities while still creating a beautiful spot to enjoy, completed with a clothes line, a shaded outlook, and a lemon tree, a detail that speaks to the owners' willingness to solve every problem with care rather than compromise.
The infrastructure behind this property is just as considered. A 9kW solar system, triple-filtration UV rainwater system with 45,000 litres of storage, gas hot water, and two tanks neatly screened behind the eco-fenced side boundary.
And then there is the location itself. Macclesfield is a genuinely special town, quiet enough that the Rally comes straight past the front once a year, and connected enough that the pub, with its well-regarded schnitzels, is an easy walk down the road. Just across the road is Lord Robinson that connects to Crystal Lake giving the property that submersed in nature feel. The Day Paddock and Night Paddock reserves are within comfortable walking distance, native orchids and all, and the kind of evening walk that makes you forget what you were thinking about before you left.
