Spring is here and the weather is heating up. So if your dream is to be settled into your ideal family home this summer – complete with sparkling pool – then this terrific home in Stretton is your dream come true.

This is the ultimate family all-rounder – a residence practical enough for even the busiest household but super-chic too, thanks to some quality renovations.

On a sizeable 680m2 elevated block close to quality shops, schools, parklands and Gateway Motorway access, this solidly constructed brick home sits well back from the street and has established garden beds.

The recent upgrades are evident throughout – with a substantial solar panel system on the roof and inside – new paint, carpet and stylish custom-fitted plantation shutters.

The kitchen is a major highlight. Updated just 2 years ago, it has a skylight, striking stone bench tops, contrasting cupboards and an entire suite of top-brand mod cons including a Meile induction stove, Panasonic microwave convention oven – as well as an Ariston oven and dishwasher.

Downstairs you’ll find a formal carpeted dining room and lounge area with a cosy fireplace. There’s a casual tiled meals area off the kitchen, which leads into the family room – the highlight of which is the massive floor to ceiling, glass-panelled wall overlooking the sensational saltwater pool.

There are 5 bedrooms in all – 2 with built-in wardrobes. The other 3, which includes the master, have bigger walk-in-robes – every girl’s dream! The master also has its own ensuite, while the other rooms are serviced by 2 more bathrooms.

Outside there’s a huge covered and paved alfresco dining area where you can kick back, relax and take in the pool views. Down the side there’s a tranquil courtyard, a front vegie patch with 500L water tank and the double gate side access is ideal for storing a boat or trailer.

Not to mention the extra inclusions:
- High ceilings, 7 x air conditioners and multiple ceiling fans
- Feature lighting downstairs & excellent storage
- Crimsafe scree
