If features make the home, then this has to be a stunner. What makes it so good is what you can’t or don’t expect to see from the front. Sure, step in through the front door past the double carport and it looks like a typically nice home. There’s a lounge with open fireplace and built in entertainment unit. Step around the corner and the timber look kitchen as well as a terrific adjoining family room and meals area. A short passage leads to the 3 bedrooms, all with built in wardrobes and ensuite for the main plus family bathroom. As you’d want, there’s a covered deck off the family room. Where the big secret comes out is further down the home where it has a huge double garage with tilt door under the roof line plus a large workshop complete with gas heater and sink with running water. A high hedge shrouds two sides of the backyard to give immense privacy; while there’s also one of the biggest and most productive lemon trees you’re ever likely to see taking up one corner. It’s suitably finished by the terrific street location that’s handy to the Knox School, Knox City, buses, Eastlink and walking and cycling tracks.
