Space, privacy and convenience for a relaxed family lifestyle
Tucked
off a private road, alongside a handful of other fine homes and just moments from the very centre of Drouin, this large four bedroom family property is a surprise find. Surrounded by an acre of parklike grounds, the home enjoys sweeping views across farmland and then on to the Bunyip State Forest. Generous proportions and multiple indoor and outdoor living areas will suit a young family searching in this price bracket for the ideal place in which to grow.
A sealed driveway, lined with mature ornamental pear trees, leads to the double auto garage and there is also access to the bulk of the land beside the home. Fanning out from the street, the rear yard and garden is a substantial area currently comprised of mature trees, areas of lawn, pathways, immaculate hedging, a great veggie patch, orchard and a large shed. It is the stunning north aspect and the views that are the real highlights here and there is some scope to develop this area further, if inclined.
Inside, the home divides loosely into two zones – one for bedrooms and one for living. Polished timber lines the floor from the entrance and on to the main living zone; an extensive, open plan area which incorporates the kitchen, dining and relaxing family space which all enjoy the natural light thanks to large windows.
Timber cabinets, white splash tiles, stainless steel appliances and a walk in pantry are all features of the kitchen together with ample work space and storage. There are two entrances to the separate formal lounge and dining room which is one large room lined in carpet and features a centrally positioned mantle - a very warm and inviting space.
Gas ducted heating and split system cooling are also installed in the home. An amazing covered alfresco more than doubles the family room living space. Conservatorylike, the alfresco can easily accommodate dining furniture, sitting furniture, an outdoor kitchen and then some – and is fully enclosed by glass windows and clear vinyl blinds. The alfresco takes full advantage of the beautiful surrounding gardens with the distant mountain views and clear roofing allows this room to be warmed and used throughout the seasons – it is a great and secure space for entertaining and family living.
A large office centrally positioned near the main entrance and could be well used for a home business.
There are four bedrooms, with a full ensuite ( including bath and shower) and a generous dressing room to the main bedroom, a well- appointed family bathroom,
is separate toilet and laundry convenient to all three additional bedrooms. Every room in the home is generous in size and well presented. Some may see the interior as a little dated, but savvy buyers will immediately see the good bones of this home and understand the quality, space and opportunity on offer; knowing that colour, drapes and soft furnishings are all cosmetic. In addition, the one acre surrounds, stunning views, mature gardens, great infrastructure and not to mention the private address, just moments from the Drouin CBD, schools and facilities - must not be overlooked!
