One could well get used to ultra-modern living and wide open spaces in this stunningly presented three-bedroom house, spread out over a 37.5-square floor plan.

In the elite Cairnlea estate surrounded by new development, it’s just a stone’s throw from a shopping centre and all public services.

Right from the outset it’s evident that the property has been immaculately kept, evidenced by its manicured front lawn and low-maintenance gardens.

The large main bedroom (to the right of entry) has a walk-through en suite with twin ceramic basins and frameless shower; this then opens to a spacious walk-in wardrobe.

Across the hall, to the left of entry, is one of four quality living spaces. This particular room gets flooded with light in the mornings through large windows with white plantation shutters.

Bright white ceramic floor tiles flow from the front door down the hall and into the living hub, with the kitchen at the centre.

The kitchen has a large gallery-style walk-through pantry and pale-blue laminate cabinetry conceals the built-in refrigerator and dishwasher. A 900mm stainless-steel cooker and rangehood, stone benchtops and built-in deep-fryer are also included.

A bright red splashback adds a pop of colour to contrast with the white and cocoa colour palette.

The family area opens out through two large sliding doors to a decked area under shelter which also has an outdoor kitchen/barbecue area for seamless indoor/outdoor living and entertainment all year round.

This area opens through stackable doors to a paved area surrounded by gardens.

Back inside, there’s a third living room which could be used as a theatre or rumpus space, or as a fourth bedroom if needed.

There’s definitely no shortage of places to retreat to in this house, with a fourth living area leading off the kitchen towards the rear of the house.

A powder room and bathroom service these living areas.

Other inclusions are ducted heating and cooling, remote-controlled roller shutters and remote-controlled double garage.
