Style, Space, Light!

From the wide decks, the view over the 8.5 acres of White Box bushland is always tranquil and relaxing. Situated only 3 kms from Inverell's city boundary and 4.7kms to the CBD you can have private, country style living whilst being a 5 minute drive from most amenities. You can have your life style both ways " rural peace yet town convenience!!"

This block is at the end of a cul-de-sac so there is only local traffic. The bushland view cannot be built out. You own your view of bushland sweeping down to your creek flat and the creek gully.

Built 7 years ago with an attitude of exceptional quality and long term low maintenance. The building quality and professional finish is easy to appreciate both on the surface and in the built construction. Builders have commented it is very expensive to build to this standard.
There is the perfect blend of class, openness and style with comfort, easy-care and practical living.

Unique in its internal open spaces and use of wood for trimmings (floors, kitchen cupboards, internal staircase), this home features a modern, chef's delight kitchen. Plenty of acrylic topped bench space in your open plan gourmet kitchen for food preparation, as well as an extended bench for eating at, doing homework or having friends sit while they chat to you as you create. The ample drawers are soft closing. The sizeable pantry can store food for a small army. The stove has a large opaque glass panel backlighting it to ensure there is always plenty of natural light in the kitchen and on your food creations. The stainless steel fridge, extra large oven, 5 burner gas cook top and dish washer make it ready for you to step into and start being your own Master Chef.

Upstairs there are three living/dining areas which can be adapted to any person's or family's needs. The vaulted ceilings with unique skylight windows guarantee the relaxing and open living area is always full of light. The morning sun streams straight in through the two sets of triple sliding glass doors, which overlook your bushland, creating a radiant glow. The sense of space and light is refreshing and invigorating.

The living areas flow onto the wrap around deck making alfresco dining only a step away.

The downstairs area is large enough to be an independent living area. Currently there is a bedroom with ensuite and built-in rob, the generous laundry/utility room with built in cupboards and another spacious open living area (7.3m x 5.7m). The sizeable wood heater is located in this room which would be ideal for the kids' area, a pool table or private business office (separate entrance).

In addition, this space has the potential to be converted into a self-contained granny flat. This area could also be easily altered to be wheel chair accessible from the carport and courtyard. The front entrance could also be readily altered to allow wheel chair access to upstairs.

The wood heater very efficiently heats the entire house. As it is adjacent to the carport, the wood can be kept under cover outside yet close at hand.

The 4 generous bedrooms have built-ins and ceiling fans. The master bedroom has an easy to clean ensuite (no shower screen!). Two bedrooms share a grand sized 3 way (toilet, sink, shower/bath area) whilst the downstairs bedroom also has an ensuite.

Wake up to the sun and birds calling you into the garden and the bush. The Master bedroom has been carefully angled to ensure you can see sunrise through the bushland 90% of the year. It is only near the Solstices you can't view the sunrise directly from bed.

An office is off the light and airy entrance hallway. All the entranceways and open areas, including the kitchen, have honey coloured Tasmanian Oak hardwood floors. Easy to keep clean, pleasant to walk on and create a warm ambience.

Architecturally, this home is unique and was carefully planned and positioned. Great thought has been put into literally every angle of the house.

From the return driveway, the front view makes the house appear deceptively small. As the front faces West, the entrance patio and adjoining walls have been carefully angled to minimise wall exposure to the afternoon sun in summer.

Equally thoughtfully designed, the northern deck catches the winter sun yet sun exposure is minimised in the summer when the sun is more directly overhead. With the spacious, open interior, natural ventilation ensures breezes are always able to circulate.

The long roof gable is complimented by a strikingly designed flyover roof above the north and east facing wrap-around decks. The fly over deck roof, along with the angled support poles, create a stunning architectural enhancement. These interesting lines and angles of your home are fully appreciated from the level, well-established turfed back lawn (Sir Walter turf). The deck is large enough to host any sized party.

Leading out from the downstairs area is an enclosed secluded courtyard. The perfect place for a spa for you to watch the full moon rise and unwind after a hard day of relaxing. The courtyard overlooks the back lawn and then the open bushland. Sipping your drinks quietly you may be lucky enough to share the time with the local kangaroos grazing on the edge of the lawn (you can regularly see the kangaroos feeding further down in the bushland from the upstairs decks). Kookaburras, King and Red Rumped parrots, galahs, doves and rosellas, amongst other birds, are regular visitors.

This downstairs courtyard is also a wonderful area for entertaining or for an outdoors creativity area which is private, sunny in the morning, sheltered from the wind and shaded in the afternoon.

And of course there is the shed! Any man would be happy with this shed. It's big. It's functional. It's clean. It fits in big toys!

The pitch of the high roofed 3 bay shed is the same as the house (all angles carefully considered!). The shed measures 9m x 8m so there is room for 3 vehicles/toys plus plenty of storage space as well. The main double roller door is remote controlled.

In addition to the 3 bay shed there is a 2 space carport giving you parking space for a total of 5 vehicles. From the carport you can unpack your groceries and directly access the house " protected from the weather.

Under the house there is large additional dug out, lockable storage area. Plenty of room for infrequently used items to be easily on hand!! This area remains cool so could be ideal for a wine cellar.

The majority of the block is natural bushland whilst the landscaped garden is easy care. The well-established native trees and shrubs lining both sides of the top of the block require little attention. There are 2 large raised garden beds which can supply a plenitude of fresh vegetables and herbs to your gourmet kitchen. The other garden beds are currently planted with vegetables, flowers and small shrubs with ready access to taps.

There is a child-friendly turfed lawn; ready for a soccer game, swings or gymnastics!

The 22,000l trickle feed town water supplied tank is complimented by a 22,000l rain water tank. You can switch between the two by simply turning two adjacent valves.

All in all an easy to maintain, robustly constructed, light filled, warm lifestyle home.
