Surrounded by the Shankland Gardens and Greenvale Reservoir and a short drive from the Western Ring Road, this elevated property in a peaceful cul-de-sac delivers the best of both worlds: a parkland environment and proximity to all the services a family needs.
For busy families with children, it means the three-bedroom residence has the space and setting to cater to a healthy lifestyle. There’s even a park at the end of the court and Roxburgh Homestead Primary School, Roxburgh Park Shopping Centre and train station are within walking distance.
At the head of a tranquil court on about 700 square metres, the brick-veneer house has an immaculate interior that’s filled with natural light. It’s ready for the new owners to make the final touches to turn it into their own.
The floor plan is geared to family living and entertaining. A sunken lounge-dining room has views of the landscaped front gardens, with a glass sliding door to a timber entertainment deck, ideal for family barbecues or a lazy Sunday brunch.
The timber kitchen with breakfast bar is well equipped to cook for intimate dinners or large gatherings, while kids can play in the open family-meals area or the backyard, which is clearly viewed from the kitchen. The backyard is also a viewpoint from the casual living zones. It has splashes of seasonal colour thanks to birds of paradise, lilly pillies and rose bushes. There’s also a water feature and lush lawn for the kids and pets to run wild.
When it’s time for some R&R, the bedrooms are zoned for peace and privacy. Two bedrooms have built-in mirror-front wardrobes and have views of pockets of the garden.
The bathroom with spa, double shower and separate toilet features views of a private fern garden – the perfect place to hide away and recharge after a long day. The light-filled main bedroom is upstairs. It has city skyline vistas that are impressive on a clear day, and at night, the horizon glitters with the bright city lights.
The bedroom also has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite with double shower, as well as access to an open study or parents’ retreat.
A laundry with linen press and built-in shelves, double carport, alarm and ducted heating are just some of the features of this house, in a location that makes family living that much simpler.
