A QUIET SANCTUARY MINUTES FROM TOWN
With a focus on space, privacy and with room to grow, this large family home in Warragul feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of town living, yet the train station, shops, schools, recreational facilities and the freeway are all within easy reach.
Positioned on an approximate 1.5 acre allotment on the south side of town, the property enjoys a wonderful northerly vista across the township to the distant Baw Baw Mountains.
This unique two storey residence has been extended and refurbished to accommodate five bedrooms, three bathrooms, formal and family living areas, stylish entertainer’s kitchen, partially covered patio and a balcony on the second level.
An oversized double garage with an adjoining workshop, garden shed, semi enclosed studio and a fernery are further inclusions.
A wonderful feature which sets this property apart is the natural pool, a tranquil oasis where the swimming pool merges with the surroundings.
Specially selected aquatic vegetation organically filters, purifies and oxygenates the water without the need for chlorine or chemicals.
Apart from being a cool respite on a hot day, this natural environment attracts birdlife and frogs, adding a new dimension to the garden.
Native and deciduous trees, sweeping lawns, two raised veggie beds and an orchard of stone fruits, citrus, apples and olives complete the peaceful setting.
Step inside to a warm and welcoming interior of bamboo flooring and a predominantly white colour palette with splashes of colour for character and cheer.
Double doors off the entry hall lead to the formal sitting room, a relaxed room with a large bay window overlooking the front garden. Along from the entrance is the central family living area and kitchen.
Expansive glazing along the northern aspect, including three sets of sliding exit doors to the patio, flood this room with light whilst a solid fuel heater, split system air conditioner and a ceiling fan provide year round comfort.
Updated in 2014, the kitchen is modern and well equipped with stone work surfaces, glass splashback, custom soft close cabinetry and quality appliances, including a Bosch five burner gas cooktop, dual wall ovens and an AEG dishwasher.
A huge butler’s pantry with an additional sink, multiple drawers and overheads provide an abundance of storage.
From the living area a passageway leads to three bedrooms, including one bedroom with an ensuite and separate toilet, family bathroom, an additional separate toilet, laundry and the stairs to the second level.
Built-in storage is included in all of these bedrooms and the laundry, two linen closets are found in the hall and there is a walk-in cupboard, currently utilised as a wine cellar, under the stairs.
The second level highlights a flexible layout where the third living area is currently used as the main bedroom.
Sliding glass doors connect to the balcony where glass balustrade allows an unimpeded view over the pool, garden and across to the ranges.
Steps from the balcony lead down to the patio and garden.
Two additional bedrooms, a walkin linen closet, bathroom and a toilet are also included on this floor.
These bedrooms have a walk-in robe, the living area also has an inbuilt cupboard or robe.
All three of the bathrooms have been refurbished and beautifully appointed with quality fixtures, tiling and tapware.
