Don’t
be deceived by the classically simple facade of this 18 square home with massive
back deck and views right out to the Gold Coast & Ocean. The single level
living home sits on a large, well over 1/2 acre, terraced garden with well
established lawns, trees and shrubs. It adjoins a nature reserve with creek
and native trees on the northern boundary and enjoys delightful privacy. The
house has been built over the more sloping part of the land so that while the
front entry is at street level, the back level is elevated high above ground
level giving a huge, fully concreted usable space under the rear of the house
It’s the sort of house where family memories are made - 4 bedrooms all with
built-in robes, 2 bathrooms, large formal living and a big, open kitchen with
breakfast bar adjoining the family dining area. But who wants to be inside?
There is a vast 11 metre long x 5 metre wide rear deck, partly roofed over,
and beckoning everyone outdoors in all but the most vile weather.
There’s ample
room for kids to play here and for adults to have friends over for a BBQ and
impress with those gorgeous day time and night views. On those rare days when
being outside is not on, you have reverse cycle air conditioning and a slow
combustion wood fire for real comfort no matter what nature decrees.
Summer
time will take everyone down to the new in-ground pool with its safety fence
and extensive paving all well hidden from view by the dense gardens. The whole
family will enjoy cooling off in this pool at the end of a warm summer’s day.
Show me a Dad who doesn’t love to tinker and hoard! For some it is part of
their trade, for others, well it seems to be a natural imperative similar to
that which drives male Satin Bower Birds! And Dad has all the space he could
ever want under this house! In fact, he can even collect cars! There’s room
for 5 to park under here! Then there’s the huge enclosed workshop and storage
area - Dad’s bower! And just so he doesn’t have to “pollute” it,
there’s a separate garden shed for the mower, spade, shovel and whipper sniper.
Here’s a perfect example of why you should never judge a book by it’s cover!
There’s so much more to this property than meets the eye - This home deserves
more than a drive-by, it deserves a full inspection.
