Only the well established and recently rejuvenated gardens will tell you that this home is probably about 20 years young. Everything else about it is new, fresh and delightful, and its location adds that extra charm with its outlook over to superb original rainforest contained within a gazetted Environmental Corridor. It is located on an elevated corner allotment and looks down over the top of almost the entire neighbourhood. Instead of seeing walls and roofs, you see nature almost everywhere you look. With abundant hidden watering holes deep within that nature, you also get to enjoy the splashes of colour and music that come with a wide variety of birds that inhabit the general area and private gardens like this one too.

The long home faces roughly east to the street with a covered and fully lined verandah running along both the eastern and northern facade where the bedrooms are located. There is a huge square verandah at a half level down from the main verandah that doubles as a large party area and a wet weather play area for children. It is joined to the main verandah by a set of stairs. This space could very easily be partially or even fully enclosed with glass to become a very nice rumpus room. The main entry steps actually originate beside the matching single carport with its straight through driveway and rise up to the party verandah before delivering you to the main verandah and front entry door.

It some ways, the photos do not seem to do justice to the beautiful open plan living. Maybe it is because photos cannot convey that emotional factor that strikes you when the front door opens and you step inside to this magic space. The once dark full timber ceiling with exposed beams is now painted in a light cream tone to match the VJ Board walls, while the stunning kitchen with its island bench breakfast bar reflects the tones of caramel and cream to perfection. Impressive stainless steel appliances blend superbly with the stainless steel cupboard handles, ivory toned bench tops and the very sensible stainless steel kick board at the bottom where it joins the light honey toned floating timber floor. Light seems to bounce off the caramel toned toughened glass splash backs rather than be absorbed by the normal tile splash backs. Plenty of windows give ample natural light and excellent foliage vistas while cream slim-line blinds blend into the walls. Even the recessed brick fireplace with its slow combustion fire has an extra compartment for holding the spare logs so they are not out on the floor.

All 3 bedrooms have been totally refurbished in those light, cool soft creamy tonings. The floating timber floors are continued through the bedrooms too, making this home ideal for families who have problems with allergies. Again, the slim-line blinds provide the feeling of sharp, clean modern lines, while the storage needs are contained with built-in robes in each room. The new bathroom echoes the tonings of the kitchen with a feature tiled wall in that rich caramel shade.

If you dream of a lovely new modern home, this mature home, complete with a private established garden will satisfy all your dreams. About the only things that aren’t new are the walls! And, everything inside and out has all been freshly painted.
