With views towards Cairnlea Lake, this 52-square residence more than meets the brief for entertainment-loving families. Not only does it have an indoor pool, it also has a fully tiled entertainment room, with a bar that integrates beautifully with swim time, a covered deck; and paved area under the sail out the back.

Behind its commanding street presence, the house has four bedrooms, a theatre room and study, beautifully laid out in an open plan perfect for a large, busy family.

To the right of entrance, the spacious living area (complete with gas log fire) is flanked by the bar-entertainment room, from where there is access to the indoor solar and gas-heated pool.

To the left of entry is a seperate study. The kitchen meals area is directly ahead. Fitted with Tasmanian oak cabinetry, this spacious hub is equipped with a two-door pantry, laminate benchtops, a dishwasher and 900mm cooker.

There will be no squabbling over the best bedroom in this house as all have private balconies, built-in wardrobes and are carpeted. The main bedroom has a retreat room, walk-in wardrobe and en suite, complete with twin vanity basins, corner shower and tub.

From the dining-living area, sliding doors lead to a Bali-inspired timber deck and pergola. A tropical touch to landscaping makes this an ideal spot for summer barbecues and cool getaways.

The house has refrigerated cooling and ducted heating, an alarm system, tinted windows and remote-controlled double garage with internal access.

Parks and shops are close by, ideal for the family that loves to get out and about.
