Hidden away in the middle of suburbia is a magnificent 2-storey, 5 bedroom home affectionately known as “The Retreat” (you will see why in a moment).
It is located in the highly sought after Hepburn Heights Estate and is within walking distance to Greenwood train station.
You will find your new home at the end of a private lane way that ensures your privacy and provides a very safe environment for children and pets.
The front of the house is unassuming with low maintenance garden (reticulated by an automatic and water efficient drip system). Within the garden are a number of delicious herbs (and a growing lime tree) to provide the extra spark and fresh flavours for the budding chef in the family.
As you enter the house you will see the stairs leading to the 2nd storey. Nestled at the bottom is a wood fire place perfect for warming the house on a cold winters night and sitting next to with a good book (or glass of wine). There are also 5 reverse cycle air conditioners throughout the house for the times you want a quick and easy heating or cooling solution.
Tucked away to the right is a large theatre room with block-out blinds so you can chill out with a movie any time of the day or night.
The 2nd storey is a perfect area for the kids with 3 double bedrooms (all with built-in robes) and their own bathroom and toilet.
The remaining 2 bedrooms are downstairs. 1 is another double bedroom with built-in robe and study desk (or change table). The other is the master suite with a walk-in robe and large ensuite including a spa bath for the times you need all your stress and worries to float away.
The main living space provides an open plan family and meals area centred around the kitchen. The kitchen is the heart of most homes and this is no exception. It includes modern appliances, plenty of storage in the cupboards, and ample bench space with breakfast bar.
But then you come to the backyard…
…and this is where your family home becomes The Retreat.
As you step outside you will immediately see the blue and inviting concrete pool and fountain. It is located immediately adjacent to the large patio behind spectacular (and safe) glass fencing. The pool is surrounded by a well maintained deck that provides a perfect location to soak up the sun as the kids swim in the pool. There is also a large shade sail to keep the pool nice and cool and to protect your family from the harsh sun.
If you enjoy entertaining you will love the very large patio complete with hard-wired outdoor speakers. There is space for even the largest of gatherings with guest access available via a front gate and plenty of room for a pool table and darts to keep the guys happy.
At one end of the patio is an open area that provides the ideal location for your barbecue and is conveniently located close to the kitchen.
Open areas of the backyard are covered with high quality artificial turf (that is suitable for pets). This means you won’t have to spend all of your time maintaining grass and can instead enjoy the best your new home has to offer.
This family home has never been available outside of the owners family since being built. It is a rare opportunity to secure your very own retreat amongst the hustle and bustle of daily life.
