UNLOCK THE DETAILS Positioned on a generous allotment and backing directly onto McDonald Park Reserve, this substantial double-storey residence delivers an impressive combination of character, space and versatility for growing families. A long paved driveway creates an inviting approach, framed by beautifully maintained lawns and striking established trees that provide instant street appeal. The home's elevated balcony overlooks this picturesque setting, while the grand entrance introduces the warmth and scale found throughout. Stepping inside, the entry foyer leads to a dedicated home office or small bedroom, perfectly positioned for those working remotely or requiring a quiet study space. Opposite, the formal lounge room offers an elegant setting for entertaining and everyday living. Bathed in natural light from large surrounding windows, this impressive space features slate flooring, plush carpeted zones and a magnificent circular brick fireplace that forms a stunning focal point beneath soaring pitched timber ceilings. Skylights and the striking mezzanine above further enhance the sense of openness, while gas heating provides year-round comfort. Toward the rear of the home, a spacious dining/living zone creates the heart of daily life. Rich in character, this inviting area showcases exposed timber beams, exposed brickwork and a substantial combustion wood heater that adds both warmth and atmosphere. French doors open seamlessly to the outdoor entertaining area, while an underground cellar adds a unique and practical feature seldom found in modern homes. The expansive kitchen has been designed to cater effortlessly for family living and entertaining. Extensive timber cabinetry, dual pantry storage, generous bench space, a dishwasher, electric cooking and a breakfast bar ensure functionality is matched by style. Positioned to overlook the outdoor living spaces, it remains connected to both family activities and entertaining occasions. Upstairs, the mezzanine landing connects four generous bedrooms, each offering their own individual charm and character. The master suite enjoys a private balcony overlooking the front gardens, a newly renovated ensuite complete with shower, vanity and toilet. The adjoining bedroom offers flexibility as a nursery, dressing room, guest room or additional bedroom. At the opposite end of the upper level, two further bedrooms provide exceptional space and individuality, featuring walk-in robes, private vanity areas, loft retreats and direct balcony access. Exposed timber details, French doors and timber-framed windows continue the home's distinctive character throughout. The centrally positioned family bathroom includes a classic roll-top bath, separate shower, large vanity and separate toilet for convenience. Adding remarkable flexibility to the property is the substantial garage complex. Previously utilised as a self-contained dwelling space, this versatile area incorporates its own bathroom facilities, toilet and laundry, presenting exciting possibilities for guest overflow, a teenage retreat, hobby space, workshop, home business or future adaptation to suit changing family needs. Outside, the home continues to impress with a beautifully paved pergola designed for year-round entertaining. Whether hosting family gatherings, weekend barbecues or relaxing with friends, this outdoor setting provides a wonderful extension of the living areas. One of the property's standout features is the impressive double-length carport positioned along the northern side of the home. Large enough to accommodate two vehicles in tandem, this versatile covered space currently houses a swim spa, creating a private wellness retreat that can be enjoyed regardless of the season. Sheltered, spacious and adaptable, it offers endless possibilities for recreation, relaxation or additional vehicle storage while enhancing the property's lifestyle appeal. Beyond the impressive double-width driveway, a sizeable double carport with remote-controlled roller door delivers exceptional convenience, security, and ample space for vehicles, trailers, or recreational equipment. Additional improvements include a large rear shed, a secondary garden shed and charming stone-built wood storage areas, providing abundant storage and practicality for busy family life. THE KEY LOCATION Perfectly positioned within easy reach of local amenities, this family-friendly address enjoys convenient access to Woolworths, McDonald Park School and the East Gambier Football Club. Adding even greater appeal is the property's unique position backing directly onto McDonald Park Reserve. A rear gate opens straight onto the reserve, allowing children extra space to play, kick a football or enjoy active afternoons outdoors, while dog owners will appreciate the convenience of stepping directly into one of the area's most popular green spaces for daily walks and recreation. BEYOND THE DOOR Combining timeless character, generous proportions and exceptional versatility, this is a home designed to grow with its owners. From the multiple living areas and adaptable garage complex to the swim spa retreat and direct reserve access, every element has been thoughtfully positioned to maximise lifestyle and enjoyment. Opportunities to secure a family home with this level of space, flexibility and connection to open green space are increasingly rare.
