Town Meets Country Lifestyle-Block
‘The best of both worlds’ has never been more apt than in describing this superb Harewood lifestyle property. This stunning executive home is set amongst 8667m2 of picturesque rural serenity, yet surprisingly is only five minutes from Northlands Mall and an easy fifteen to the CBD. Professionally landscaped grounds and two fenced paddocks provide an abundance of space for family life, entertaining, animals and hobby farming. This is the perfect opportunity to realise the rural dream without sacrificing any of the convenience of city living.
The home has recently undergone an extensive renovation, giving it a near-new-feel with a brand-new designer kitchen that includes Electrolux and AEG appliances, full internal repaint in neutral tones, bamboo hardwood flooring throughout, new curtains and luxury bathroom fittings and fixtures.
A formal entranceway leads to interconnecting kitchen, dining, and living areas, plus a separate formal lounge that can be closed off at leisure. All overlook the expansive and immaculately maintained gardens, with two sets of double doors providing easy indoor/outdoor flow to a large pergola entertaining area and a sun-drenched patio.
Superbly configured to enjoy its north-west aspect, this home is built for easy everyday living and entertaining. Double glazed and insulated, its three heat pumps and HRV system ensures warm filtered air circulates year-round.
Accommodation is comprised of four bedrooms, two with ensuites; plus, a guest bathroom and separate toilet. All bathrooms have underfloor heating. Additionally, a sleepout provides even more options for guests or teens.A full, hi-tech CCTV security system includes six cameras.
The extensive outdoor gardens have been a labour of love over the past eleven years, fulfilling the professional design by Morgan and Pollard. Plantings include an array of deciduous and evergreen; with hazelnut trees, figs, apples, pears, cherry trees, and more than one hundred roses! An automatic irrigation system with rain sensor keeps the gardens lush and undeniably impressive.
Internal access double garaging plus a one-bay single lockable garage, a two-bay implement/ workshop, plus multiple outbuildings, all add up to exceptional storage capacity for cars, tools and implements.
