Never be packed to the rafters again in this six-bedroom gem that could be the perfect fit for a growing family.
Its double-storey, brick facade towers over neighbouring abodes on this tree-lined street in the ever expanding Cairnlea estate.
Green thumbs are not required to care for this property as it is surrounded by 680 square metres of land with a mix of concrete, paved areas and pebbled gardens, ensuring a low-maintenance lifestyle.
The main suite (on account of its sheer size), to the right of entry, has a parents’ retreat, spacious en suite with a large shower, twin basins and separate toilet and a large walk-in wardrobe.
Finding the space to spend quality time is no drama, with a 42.55 square floor plan comprising three living areas.
Down the hall is an expansive family room with the flexibility to be used as a theatre room or dining for formal gatherings, or even converted into a spare bedroom.
The light-filled living zone at the end of the hall includes open family-meals areas and a timber kitchen with laminate bench tops, stainless-steel appliances including a dishwasher, 900mm oven, gas cooktop and rangehood and a walk-in pantry. There’s the added bonus of a second kitchen tucked away in the double garage – perfect for scaling that ‘big catch’ after the weekend fishing trip or cleaning up barbecue dishes.
A powder room and laundry round out this level.
Four more generously-sized bedrooms are upstairs, with a mix of walk-in and built-in wardrobes.
The main bathroom services this level with a tiled bath, glass shower and twin basins.
A spacious upstairs retreat opens through a slider to a balcony, which has parkland views. Back downstairs a sliding door off the meals area opens to a sheltered outdoor dining and entertainment area.
Plenty of concrete space out the back means more off street parking for a boat, trailer or caravan.
Extra features include ducted heating, cooling and roller shutters on all windows.
This house’s location puts Cairnlea Shopping Centre and school within walking distance and there is easy access to the Ring Road.
