Description
Spacious family living, a superb in-ground pool, peaceful views, a detached studio-retreat and your own space on a large garden allotment – 1742sqm! It’s hard to believe you can live in such a peaceful position and where you can walk to it all!
This solid brick character home was built in 1970. It has a modern floorplan with spacious rooms, high ceilings and large windows, and is presented beautifully. With so much to offer the growing family, 5 Tester Drive is a wonderful buying opportunity!
There are three big bedrooms – the kids will be happy in their rooms. The main bathroom has been upgraded with a large bath, while a second bathroom has been created by sharing with the laundry – it is a smart space and a practical improvement to the home.
For the growing family, having two huge and separate living areas is ideal. The traditional rooms at the front enjoy a delightful and private outlook to the front yard gardens. The relaxing lounge area sits in front of an old brick fire-place where there is potential for a combustion heater next winter. A corner window nook could be the perfect spot for the chaise-lounge and a good book and for more formal gatherings – there is plenty of room for a large dining table.
The main living area is perfect. A large room with great space for family dining and lounging around the TV. It is connected to the kitchen through a servery, and the outdoor entertaining with bi-fold stack doors that open all the way! Natural timber floors contrast with clean white walls, while a huge window looks out over the pool and treetops. It is a very special feature, and you can see the sea!
The kitchen is a large room. It looks good and works well – but just imagine your very own dream kitchen in time. For now, there is good pantry storage and display shelves, the wine-rack is included, there is a dishwasher, a modern oven and ceramic cook-top, while being able to stand at the sink and look to the dining table and views is a treat!
The paved pergola feels like an extension to the home. A protected area where you can live outside, barbeque with family & friends and keep a close eye on all the pool fun. The concrete pool is salt-water chlorinated, solar heated and is the ideal size for laps. The enclosed pool area provides plenty of room for sun lounges and shade, it is private and in a perfect way – so connected to the home.
A detached studio has many different uses for you to decide. The children will love it as a games room, it is the ideal teenager retreat or home for the young adult, is it the cave or Mum’s creative studio! Either way, this is a welcome and versatile space.
A secure carport with remote entry has room for two cars lengthways. Good height ceilings will provide easy access for the four-wheel drive, while out the front – there is guest parking on a drive-through parking bay. Handy!
When allotments are getting smaller, land is Gold! Here, you can enjoy your own environment on a 1742sqm allotment (0.34 acre). In a previous time, the back of the allotment was reserved for a tennis-court – today it is a natural park-like setting with abundant potential. The neighbours are off in the distance, think of nut trees, planting every citrus variety, vegetable gardens, a spot for the fire-pit and if you love native gardening – this could be paradise. The kids and the family hound will love you for it!
It's all here and what a place to live.
5 Tester Drive could be your forever home.
