Homestead:
A very appealing, well-maintained property!
This high quality, fully airconditioned, fully tiled, block home is approx 450sqm in size, is rectangular in shape and has large verandas, the length of the home, on both the western and eastern sides. The layout consists of 4 large bedrooms with built-ins, spacious open plan living/dining/kitchen area, one large bathroom, laundry, and abundant storage space. Presently the very large 4th bedroom doubles as an office and visitor space.
The shaded western and eastern sides of the house with abundant large windows and large doorways, all provide an open, airy, well-lit feel to the internal spaces. The homestead is fully security screened, and all windows have good quality blinds installed.
With a thoughtfully renovated kitchen equipped with high-quality appliances, the ‘entertainer’ has great options … easy access to both the internal dining room and the outside entertainment areas. The outside entertaining space, off the rear 5m x 25m rear veranda (with bar), overlooks the large 10m x 5m saltwater pool, the garden lawn area and the rear paddocks, thus affording an enviable inside-outside aspect to the home. The garden is broadly described as open lawns fringed by extensive use of trees and shrubs along the garden fence, thus providing privacy but also useful open spaces.
The landscaped swimming pool has a neat pool shed and waterfall, is equipped with a cleaning robot, and is regularly serviced by a professional pool cleaning company.
The block is located off the Diamantina Rd access, thus limiting road noise and affording nice privacy. Diamantina Rd is a no-through road which only provides access to a few local rural properties. Although there have been no problems to date, and only for reassurance, a security camera has been installed on the property.
