Plans Lodged At Council

Having been tightly held by the current owner for a 20-year tenure, this very special 274sqm home is now on the market, because the plans are in Council and pricing is underway. They are so excited about building their new home presenting an exciting opportunity for brand-new chapter.

Designed by Wayne Seebeck (Seebeck Design Group Ltd) and built by the current owner in 2004, every detail has been carefully considered for effortless modern living. Situated in a sought-after neighbourhood, with Benmore Gardens providing a tranquil reserve outlook on the northern boundary, it's hard to imagine a more appealing setting for family living - and it's zoned for Burnside High!

Brick and Plaster construction, beautifully accentuated by manicured gardens, ensures timeless elegance and show-stopping street appeal. Inside, the tiled entrance lobby flows to an expanse of family living - a wonderful sense of space and abundant natural light, together with wrap-around garden views, instantly set the soul at ease. A sleek, well-planned kitchen, boasting generous storage, will be a natural hub for family living and entertaining, leading directly on to the dining and casual sitting areas. Tucked around the corner, for a sense of separation without missing out on family life, a more formal lounge is a cosy place to relax. From the main living and dining area, bi-fold doors open to a choice of outdoor living spaces, including a partially covered north-facing patio, perfect for morning coffee overlooking the reserve, and a superb outdoor entertaining space with louvre roof. The surrounding gardens are exquisitely presented, offering excellent, secure space for children and pets to play. The master bedroom also enjoys access to the garden, along with an en-suite bathroom, while two more bedrooms and an office (or fourth bedroom) share a large family bathroom with separate bath and shower. The internal-access garage is a large double, with drive-through access to secure off-street parking/utility area, and a studio adjacent to the garage offers enticing options for working from home, hobbies and more. Year-round comfort is assured with two heat-pumps plus in-slab underfloor heating in the tiled areas, lounge and master bedroom.

Showcasing such careful attention to detail, it is little wonder that the owners have been reluctant to part with their beloved home. The time has come to downsize, however, and a new build is underway, so make no mistake: this property must sell.

Be quick to view... the good ones never last long!
