Across two generous levels, the home impresses with its scale and flexibility. The sun-filled open-plan living and dining zone creates a warm, inviting space for everyday living and effortless entertaining, anchored by a well-appointed kitchen with excellent storage, a large corner pantry, and seamless flow to the surrounding living areas. A separate ground-floor lounge adds a valued second living space for the whole family.
The ground-floor master suite is positioned for genuine separation, complete with ensuite and built-in robe, well-suited to parents seeking their own retreat within the home.
Upstairs, a substantial second living area delivers exceptional versatility, equally at home as a kids retreat, media lounge, or quiet breakout space.
Two oversized bedrooms with built-in robes are serviced by a central bathroom and separate toilet, while the fourth bedroom adapts easily as a study, nursery, or guest room.
The sun-filled private courtyard connects seamlessly to the living and dining areas, creating a generous outdoor space for entertaining, relaxing, or simply enjoying the privacy this home affords. An elevated balcony above offers a tranquil vantage point across the surrounding landscape.
With generous internal living across two well-considered levels, a double garage plus a rare third car space, and a location that places nature, schools, and everyday convenience within easy reach, this is a home built around the way families actually live.
