Elevated living, triple garage and workshop

Elevated and tranquil, this generous family home is privately positioned just minutes from the Village centre, with a leafy outlook over Woodford House school grounds and enchanting views to the snow-capped ranges in winter. Ticking all the boxes, a substantial triple garage along with a large workshop is perfect for car enthusiasts, for those in trades, and hobbies. Completed in 2005, with a concrete block and plaster on cavity construction, this has been a cherished home for the last 17 years, with the current owner now making the move to downsize.

On the main floor, the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area is bathed in natural sunlight, with large sliding doors opening onto an elevated covered terrace. Perfect for entertaining, the versatile living spaces include a cosy family living area with a woodburner, spacious dining area, and an inviting formal living room with access onto the balcony. The practical kitchen is well-appointed with ample storage and a large island bench, while an efficient heat pump provides year-round comfort.

Privately set to the rear of the home, the generous master suite offers an inviting, tranquil ambiance, with a scenic outlook and doors onto the elevated deck. A spacious renovated ensuite with spa bath and tiled shower, along with a large walk-in wardrobe, double glazing, and a heat pump, all provide practicality and comfort. Two additional double bedrooms are well-appointed with good storage, one with doors onto the deck and the other with a peaceful outlook to the nearby paddocks, while the family bathroom is well-appointed with a bath and tiled shower.

On the ground floor, accessed via stairs or chairlift, the generous fourth bedroom or office opens directly onto the covered verandah, ideal as a home studio. A handy powder room is positioned alongside, while the large garage and workshop offer an abundance of storage and work space.

Thoughtfully maintained, the exterior was recently painted, while inside, a DVS system, efficient heating, and ample storage offer practical living. Outside, the established gardens boast an abundance of productive fruit trees, berry and vegetable gardens, mature easy-care plantings, spring bulbs, as well as garden irrigation for ease of care. The sheltered lawn has a peaceful outlook, and there are enchanting pathways, terraced gardens, and convenient off-street gated parking for a caravan, boat, or trailer.

Ideal for families and couples looking for elevation, comfortable living, and convenience to the village, this property offers a peaceful escape and is ready for its new owners to enjoy.
