Magnificent views to the Brindabellas can be enjoyed from this impressive Playoust designed home, situated in a prime, elevated location opposite Goodwin Hill reserve. It offers generous formal and casual living areas, an elevated entertaining deck, and a luxurious master suite, all taking advantage of the views.
Behind the attractive and unassuming façade, a huge internal area unfolds over two levels and the cedar front door opens to a wide entry featuring striking, Blackbutt solid timber flooring.
Classic Playoust design in the entry and formal living areas highlight the richness and beauty of timber. The cedar lined ceiling continues into the formal dining area and down a step into the character filled lounge, featuring a cathedral ceiling with solid beams, and exposed brickwork around the open fireplace. It would be hard to imagine a cosier atmosphere, relaxing around a warming blaze in the depths of winter! Full length, cedar framed windows and doors, all of which are double glazed, frame spectacular views over treetops to the mountains, sometimes dusted with snow. A sliding door opens onto the wrap around deck maximising the endless views.
Timber flooring extends over the spacious, light filled casual living area. Fresh white décor and LED downlighting feature throughout the home. The modern chef's kitchen offers an island bench, a 900 mm gas cooktop with novel chameleon splashback, a commercial oven and Westinghouse stainless steel dishwasher, with a second dishwasher in the butler's pantry/laundry. The seamless integration of all living areas with the fantastic long deck, and family room with the sunny front courtyard, makes for relaxed entertaining on any scale.
The segregated master suite offers restful views, a walk-in robe, ensuite, and access onto the deck. A fourth bedroom is situated on the main level, along with the updated bathroom featuring a skylight, a deep bath, and shower. Brand new, quality carpet furnishes formal living areas and rumpus rooms.
On the lower level there are two large, interconnected rumpus areas with a huge amount of built-in storage plus external doors to the garden, while a bathroom and laundry tub add to the potential for self-contained living for family members.
A wine cellar and a large, light filled workshop are also found on the lower level.
Boasting perhaps the best views of any, the four car garage comes with a Bishamon car hoist, a storage loft and auto panel lift door.
Opposite, the hilltop reserve offers open spaces and playgrounds, as well as habitat for the rich diversity of birdlife, including black cockatoos, rosellas, kookaburras, and owls.
From this superb location, Kippax Fair, Dunlop and Charnwood shops are all within a short distance, with transport nearby, while Macgregor primary is only a short walk.
A home in which tasteful updating has preserved the distinctive character, while offering modern living and some of the best views to be found!
