Don and Lisa found their sanctuary in the spring of 2007, after searching for a long-term residence that felt like home. Nestled on the higher side of the street, on a generously sized block, in a quiet family-friendly neighbourhood, they knew they’d found the one.

Having grown up in nearby Holt and Charnwood, they were drawn to the familiarity of the area, and its proximity to the local primary school was an added appeal for their future family plans. The house, with its large backyard and practically untouched interior, offered them a blank canvas where they could craft each space into their dream home vision.

A welcoming entrance invites you inside, with timber flooring beckoning you toward a spacious lounge room and dining space. Segregated by sliding doors and warmed by the morning sun, these freshly carpeted spaces offer cosy havens for relaxation and recreation, kept comfortable by ducted heating and cooling. Large windows flood the room with plenty of natural light and a tranquil view of the landscaped front garden, purposely planted to provide year-round blooms.

Over the years the home has experienced transformative makeovers to establish a modern lifestyle of family comfort and convenience. In 2018, Lisa redesigned the kitchen to maximise the space, functionality and natural lighting. High end electric appliances, storage aplenty and easy-access cupboards, make this space a joy for any home chef to cook with ease.

The updated bathroom, renovated in 2010, offers a functional environment for the whole family, complete with quality fixtures and fittings providing both usability and practicality, with a well-thought-out design. Reconfigured in 2017, the laundry flaunts modern amenities and a large linen press for added family versatility, with an external door opening out onto a spacious, semi-enclosed covered deck built in 2012. The landscaped backyard is a gardener’s inspiration, showcasing neatly organised garden beds, a vegetable patch, enclosed chook run, and a greenhouse.

Situated in a community focused, family-friendly suburb, this well-loved home offers convenient access to main roads, providing a balance of connectivity and great proximity to local facilities. Only a stone’s throw from renowned pre, primary and college level schools, this home is ideal for families with children looking to settle down in a supportive environment. Providing not just a place to live but a place to create lasting memories, this serene sanctuary where the warmth of family life and the beauty of nature come together, offers a truly enjoyable living experience for all.
