Double gates secure an inviting front-yard entrance here, complemented by low-maintenance reticulated gardens and easy-care artificial turf that is prevalent right the way around the exterior of the house. Downstairs, a carpeted theatre room makes an instant first impression with its striking stone feature wall, movie-style cinema screen on the wall, projector provisions in place and a cavity slider for total peace and privacy.
The fourth or "guest" bedroom can also be found down here with its gleaming Bamboo wooden floorboards, ceiling fan, double-door walk-in wardrobe, splendid leafy aspect to wake up to and double doors for external access out to the side putting green. The private ensuite connects to the bedroom suite with its large rain shower and sleek stone vanity top. A separate adjacent powder room completes this part of the layout.
The crisply-tiled dining area leaves space for a potential study nook whilst also comprising of a feature recessed ceiling and an attractive and charming ceiling rose. There is a lockable under-stair storeroom only inches away, as well as extra built-in storage next to the staircase.
Also impeccably tiled, the spacious open-plan kitchen and family area captures plenty of winter sunlight due to its northern orientation, with a built-in media nook and display storage simply an added bonus. The kitchen itself is every chef's dream and is luxuriously-appointed with sparkling granite bench tops and splashbacks, a microwave nook, a full-height double-door storage pantry, a breakfast bar-come-built-in-meals table, an integrated range hood, a stainless-steel five-burner gas cooktop and an under-bench oven.

Two separate sliders seamlessly extend entertaining to a shimmering below-ground swimming pool with a flowing waterfall feature and a protective shade sail up above. A fabulous tiled poolside alfresco area comes complete with a built-in granite kitchen - home to a sink and stainless-steel Beef Eater barbecue.
Upstairs, a feature pivot door reveals an enormous king-sized master retreat that defines parental relaxation with its Bamboo floors, ceiling fan, eye-catching ceiling rose, over-sized walk-in robe and two separate access doors leading out to a large full-width front balcony - under cover and enjoying the tree and lake views, as well as spectacular serenity where only the sounds of the chirping local birdlife can be heard. The sumptuous fully-tiled ensuite comprises of double rain/hose showers, a free-standing bathtub, twin stone vanities, heat lamps and a separate toilet.
A separate toilet services the minor sleeping quarters, as does a stylish main family bathroom with a generous rain shower, separate bath, stone vanity and under-bench storage. The second and third bedrooms are both spacious and carpeted, facing north and fitted with ceiling fans and built-in double robes. The wildcard in the floor plan is a massive carpeted gym that doubles as a games room, "man cave" or even a home office with built-in storage and a verdant green outlook that is just waiting to be embraced. This multi-purpose zone can be whatever you want it to be - it's all down to personal preference.
