Get back to nature in this elegant home that offers peace, privacy and is close to everything.

Even before entering this property you are in awe of your surroundings – the peace, the privacy, the natural bushland, just the setting takes your breath away.

As you come to the end of the long circular driveway a stylish and elegant home commands your attention – from the manicured lawns to the portico to simple magnificence of this home.

On entering you are drawn to the cascading waterfall feature and superb polished timber floors that flow through to the three living areas.

As a home should, it all starts in the kitchen.

This modern kitchen with loads of kitchen cupboards and bench space and an island work bench/breakfast bar with stainless steel Smeg appliances overlooks the family living area; there is also an entertainer’s delight with a full cafe style wet bar that opens out to the wraparound verandah.

This is, in fact, the home’s fourth living area where you will spend all your time entertaining friends, eating alfresco with the family. Long summer days will be spent lazing by the pool after a quick dip with the kids.

With three dining areas, a home-theatre, three separate living areas and don’t forget the outside living space there is plenty of room for the whole family to entertain their own guests giving you privacy and peace if you want it.

Your guests will love their own private space including kitchenette and private bathroom that is linked by a beautifully landscaped, glass-framed garden walkway.

For the car enthusiast or hobbyist there is the very rare five car garage accommodation.

And because the house is set back on the block, there is a large front yard where the kids can play footy, cricket or build a tennis court.
