First impressions count and this property has the looks to keep you coming back for more! From the street, an impeccably well-paved driveway rises gently past lush garden beds - thriving in the northern aspect - to a double carport that opens into a secure double garage.

A tiled entry foyer greets you on entry, opening on both sides to light-filled living and dining spaces - one formal, the other more casual - each flowing ultimately into a designer kitchen fitted with the works!

Other than the entrance foyer and the main bathroom, the rest of this home's generous interior sports on-trend, honey-toned hybrid timber floors, complemented either by timber Venetian blinds (in the casual meals/family area) or bi-fold plantation shutters over long vertical windows - as found in the formal lounge and dining room. Everywhere, natural light abounds, boosted in places by well-positioned skylights.

At the centre of all social action will be the superb kitchen which opens on one side to the formal dining room and, opposite, flows past a breakfast bar to the casual meals area and out onto the covered alfresco patio. You couldn't be better positioned to cater to parties big and small, winter or summer! Sleek white benches are plentiful for prep time, storage in a contrasting hue is profuse, and the cooking equipment top end with a big gas cooker/oven combo and statement rangehood. When the party's over, simply pack all the evidence away in your dishwasher!

On summer days like we're experiencing now, the whole household is sure to be enjoying this property's amazing alfresco areas - including the covered dining space off the kitchen and the open-ended Bali-Hut overlooking the fully fenced inground saltwater pool and more flourishing gardens filled with palms, ferns and blooming bromeliads. What a sensational spot it is out here; so easy to imagine yourself sipping a cool cocktail under the lofty thatched roof of the Bali Hut while the kids splash about in the cool waters of a glistening pool! Anywhere you choose to be in this property's rear oasis, privacy is assured thanks to quality perimeter fencing and screening.

Through winter, indoors will be the place to be, and where better than the family room where you can pop a few logs into the gorgeous slow-combustion fireplace to make things super cosy for some cruisy couch-surfing after dinner.

When it's time to retire, draw the curtains across big windows in any of this home's three generous bedrooms and prepare for a sweet sleep. The master has the bonus A/C, as well as the option to open a screened slider to the backyard for evening breezes. All share a centrally located family-size bathroom with a floating vanity, a tempting bathtub with muscle-relaxing therapeutic spa jets, and a roomy shower with handy storage niche.

Other notable highlights include:

- Bonus attic in roof for extra storage
- 2 x wall-mounted AC units and 2 x Whirlybirds
- 6.2 kW solar system (German-made)
