Quality and class amidst a designer landscape

-

Set amidst a landscaped designer garden, this superb residence exudes sophistica­ted family living. Quality built by respected Porter Davis Homes, the attention to detail, superior appointmen­ts and first class workmanshi­p is immediatel­y evident as you step through the dual entry doors. Ten foot ceilings, including a coffered ceiling in the foyer, sandstone floor tiles and a subtle palette of neutral tones create a feeling of understate­d elegance. Smooth stone work surfaces in the kitchen, European appliances, sumptuous drapes and plantation shutters, elegant light fittings and choice carpets are also quality inclusions. Ducted gas heating and evaporativ­e cooling maintain a high level of comfort whilst a 26 panel 5kw solar system and 70,000 litres of undergroun­d water storage are eco considerat­ions. A thoughtful floorplan highlights four bedrooms, including a spacious parents’ retreat, home office, multiple private and shared living spaces, superb kitchen and a double garage with internal access. For outdoor dining, the spacious alfresco is ideal to entertain family and friends whilst the sparkling inground pool with a second covered patio and outdoor kitchen is perfect for those lazy summer days. Created by renowned landscape designer Ian Barker, the surroundin­g gardens are a sanctuary of peace and privacy. Automated gates open to an exposed aggregate driveway, a flourishin­g garden of native plantings and a delightful water feature at the entry. At the front of the layout are the home office, main bedroom suite and internal access to the garage. Spacious and beautifull­y appointed, the main bedroom features a generous walk-in robe, an ensuite with a large twin basin vanity, oversized shower, separate toilet and sliding doors to a sheltered terrace. Further along the entry hall is the formal sitting room, an elegant room with a gas log fire set into a classic styled fireplace. Beyond is the kitchen, family living and dining area where the northerly aspect maximises the natural light and picturesqu­e views across the gardens to nearby farmland and the distant Bunyip State Forest. White country profile cabinetry, Caesarston­e counter tops and a glass splashback are teamed with a Blanco 900mm cooker with canopy rangehood and a Bosch dishwasher in the stylish and functional kitchen. A huge walk-in larder, multiple drawers and glass overhead display cabinets provide an abundance of storage. French doors from the sitting room and dining area plus bifold doors off the kitchen open to the alfresco and create a seamless connection to the outdoors. Adjoining the dining area is the theatre room with a large screen, projector, surround sound and block out drapes. Behind the kitchen a passageway links the three secondary bedrooms, a rumpus or playroom, family bathroom, separate toilet and the laundry with outside access. These bedrooms have built-in robes, storage is included in the laundry and there is a double linen press in the hall.

A stroll around the garden is a must to fully appreciate the careful planning and hidden nooks to savour the serene setting. Splendid ornamental pears along the north face, the fragrant lavender maze, colourful rose parterre, exotic specimen trees and the manicured lawns which sweep down to the lake at the rear of the property are meticulous­ly maintained. Assorted fruit trees, a veggie garden and two poultry runs will amply stock the home larder whilst a garden shed stores the mower and tools.

The swimming pool is solar heated and securely fenced, the adjoining patio has a sink, bar fridge, gas hot plates and a wood fired pizza oven. Number 33 Fairway Drive, Drouin is well placed to access the freeway, Drouin and the many community amenities the town has to offer. For relaxed family living with every luxury and inclusion you could wish for, this is a property which will not disappoint.
