Family entertainer: 20 Mackenzie Close, Taylors Lakes, 3038

By Carole Levy

On nearly 1000 square metres, this beautifully presented residence is a frontrunner for young families, especially if they love to have friends over for weekends to have a barbecue and a dip in the pool – and, of course, kids will love having a pool any time.

The house, with its appealing kerbside looks, has five bedrooms, four of which have either walk-in or built-in robes. One of the bedrooms has entry off the entry hall as well as a direct link with the main bedroom, making it a great study or parents’ retreat. This main bedroom also has an open walk-through robe and an en suite behind a door.

A large carpeted rumpus/lounge room, behind double doors from the main living hub, has a wall of glass providing views of the undercover alfresco area and beyond to the fenced solar-heated salt pool. Corner windows in the alfresco not only provide wind shelter but also admit northerly light, making it a pleasing spot to gather on a warm winter’s day or to sit and warm up after a long dip.

The expansive tiled family-meals space adjoins the kitchen which has a servery bench, dual wall ovens, a 900mm gas cooktop with fish and wok burners, a Bosch dishwasher and timber cabinetry and walk-in pantry.

Perks include central heating and cooling, security system, video intercom and NBN connection, plus a remote-controlled double garage with generous storage space.

The property, with five schools two kilometres or less away, is five minutes’ drive from Watergardens Town Centre, Keilor Public Golf Course and Calder Freeway entry.
