With generous rooms, a practical floor plan and lots of extra features, this home will delight modern families demanding quality and style. Built of brick with partial rendering in mid-grey, a front veranda and a double garage at the side, the home stands up beautifully against other family properties in the lovely Lakeside precinct. Inside, it’s tastefully finished and incorporates inspired design for something a little different. The main focus is on a sunny, open family room at the rear. This air-conditioned space adjoins the dining room and the well-appointed kitchen with a dishwasher, corner pantry, gas cooking, wall oven and attractive off-white cabinetry set off with charcoal benchtops. Another favourite room is sure to be the carpeted lounge, where low walls suggest a division between this room and the hallway. Both the lounge and the family room have glass doors opening onto the back yard, with an extensive undercover area including a delightful gable-roofed patio. The family bedrooms, all doubles with robes and carpet, and the main bathroom with bath, shower and vanity, are reached via a hallway off the family area, while the opulent master suite at the front of the home is complete with a walk-in robe and a bathroom with vanity, toilet and double shower. There’s also an office or study, which could double as an overnight guest room, and the laundry has a handy storeroom adjoining. Timber veneer flooring extends throughout the family area and hallways, and all décor, tiling and timber venetians are from a modern neutral palette to suit any style of furnishing and allow the owners to dress it up with their own choice of accessories. Another major benefit for most buyers is the freestanding shed in the back yard. Accessed through the double garage, this good-sized shed with a concrete floor, lighting and six double power points makes a perfect workshop or garaging for the dinghy or pop-top. The home sits amid smart lawns and gardens on a 684sqm block around the corner from parks and McKail Lake. A short drive away, there’s a major supermarket, liquor store, fuel outlet, high school and TAFE. The city’s a little further – but still only about seven minutes by road.
