24 Leon Avenue

Some homes ask you to imagine the lifestyle. This home just hands it to you. Tucked behind high fencing and a remote gate at Rosebud's coveted Paris end, offering the peace and security the modern family desires. This custom-built residence, only seven years young and freshly repainted externally, spreads close to 40 squares across two levels on a flat, private 800m2 (approx.) block. Little ones and pets are able to play safely behind the secure gate, with not a worry in sight. The beach is a minutes stroll away and Lawson Park, with its leash-free run and community garden, is only steps across the road. Inside, the numbers tell their own story, with five bedrooms, four of them with dressing rooms and the main suite is accommodated by its own ensuite. Four living areas lets everyone find their corner, including an acoustic-insulated studio where the drum kit, movie marathons or work calls can happen without the rest of the house hearing a thing. Step inside and the heart of the home opens up exactly the way modern family life demands. The galley kitchen, with its waterfall stone island, walk-in pantry, freestanding 900mm oven and dishwasher, looks straight over the dining and living zones and out through bi-folds to the north-facing deck. Throw open the bi-folds and the alfresco becomes part of the room where summer entertaining is solved. A second expansive deck faces west off the rear, perfectly positioned for the last of the day's sun. As for the engineering behind the lifestyle, windows are double glazed throughout, with refrigerated reverse-cycle air conditioning upstairs and a split system below with underfloor and hydronic heating. There is additionally solar with a Tesla inverter. The garage hosts high ceilings, ample under stair storage, and a double lock-up with internal access. This is a home built to be comfortable in every season and cheap to keep that way. The landscaped grounds front and rear deliver privacy without feeling fortressed, and the flat block leaves generous room for a pool if that's on your list. Rosebud Beach, park, Rosebud Plaza, the hospital and Rosebud Secondary are all within easy reach, this is a location that grows with your family rather than one you outgrow.
