Description

Find a sense of calm and balance in the dance of family life. Finding space and focus can feel like a distant dream when the days are a blur of lost homework, after-school sports, work, chores, sleepovers, and keeping everyone clean and fed. Fear not; this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers relief from the whirlwind. A stone’s throw away from Helena College and an easy stroll from local shops, sporting fields, and the Heritage Trail, this Hills property epitomises convenience and ease.

Beyond its enviable location and 1800 sqm low maintenance block is flexibility and family-friendly design, including multiple living areas, a below-ground pool and a large, powered shed boasting drive-in access along the side of the property.

The home’s main entrance leads to the embrace of an updated kitchen with new appliances surrounded by a timeless palette of soft, organic colours. The kitchen and adjoining family room and meals area are awash with natural light thanks to south-facing picture windows. A second living area unfolds just inside the ‘official’ front door. This generous space is divided by a pair of French doors to create the perfect setting for formal dining or entertaining and a large study or media room with access to a paved and sheltered alfresco entertaining area.

Hidden behind the kitchen lies a spacious laundry with a separate WC and a sliding door to a screened porch. Currently utilised as a home gym, this versatile space holds untapped potential – an ideal microclimate for a courtyard garden, a tranquil space for meditation or relaxing, or a fantastic, sheltered space for play.

The bedroom wing occupies the eastern portion of the floor plan. Here, the main suite offers a calming parents’ retreat with a built-in robe and a beautifully renovated ensuite. Three junior rooms, complete with ceiling fans, line the hallway leading to a fully tiled, renovated family bathroom, a testament to thoughtful design.

A bituminised driveway sweeps from the road to a single carport and along a side boundary to the powered workshop. A plumbed sink sits to one side of the workshop, ready for easy cleanup after a day in the garden or tinkering in the shed.

The jewel of the fully fenced backyard is the below-ground salt pool, surrounded by sandstone-coloured paving and ample space for poolside lounging. Alfresco dining and entertaining with pool views are provided by the sheltered and paved patio wrapping one corner of the home.

This family property offers fun, flexibility and convenience in equal measure. Helena College, Glen Forrest Sports Club and the local shopping strip – where you will find good coffee – are all close by. The nearby Great Eastern Highway provides swift access to Midland and the bustling CBD. The current owners have undertaken stylish and considerable updates – new kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, solar panels and ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning – meaning all you have to do is call the movers and unpack. Surrender to the allure and harmony of life in the Hills and come home to this family-friendly sanctuary.
