About this property
Deeply loved for the past 24 years, this is a place where a family has grown, everyday moments have turned into lifelong memories, and where warmth has always been felt the moment you walk through the door. Now it's ready for a 'new family to begin their story' and embrace the lifestyle that has made this address such a 'Special Retreat'. Spanning two generous levels, the scale of space inside is enormously 'Surprising!' Most rooms are oversized with high ceilings with natural light and refreshed with crisp décor and quality 'new carpet' throughout, creating a home that is ready to enjoy from day one. Set on a 656sqm north-facing corner block, sunshine drifts beautifully through the interiors. A central hallway separates the main lounge from the open plan dining and kitchen, where brand new flooring, a 'walk-in pantry' and large cooktop create a practical hub for everyday family life. A fifth bedroom and modern third bathroom form a private zone, ideal for guests or a home office, complete with nearby entry from the backyard and covered alfresco area. Wrap-around lawns provide plenty of space for kids to play and include a greenhouse and garden shed. Upstairs opens to a huge second living area that spills onto a large north-facing balcony, a lovely spot to enjoy the view, soak up the sun and enjoy quiet moments. Four bedrooms sit on this level, along with a separate toilet and corner spa bathroom, while the master bedroom enjoys a 'brand new ensuite'. An internally accessed oversized double garage with workshop space and large driveway, but it's the neighbourhood that completes the picture. This is the kind of place where birdsong variety fills the air in a friendly cul-de-sac with schools, bus stops, ovals, nature reserves, beaches and major shopping centres all close by, the lifestyle is 'truly special'. - Double brick, brick veneer, cement bagged, terracotta roof - Split system a/c and natural gas outlets for heating/cooking, electric oven - Close to St Mary's Catholic College, St Paul's Primary, Preschools, Hunter Sports High, Lake Macquarie Private Hospital, Charlestown Square, Bennetts Green Retail Park - Central to Redhead Beach, Lake Macquarie, Newcastle Disclaimer: We have obtained this property information from sources we believe to be reliable; however, we cannot guarantee its accuracy.
