72 Playford Avenue

Set in a quiet, tightly held family pocket of Toormina, this exceptionally spacious and recently modernised residence delivers a rare combination of scale, flexibility and lifestyle appeal. Designed with large families, multi-generational living and income potential firmly in mind, the home unfolds across multiple levels in a way that feels both practical and surprisingly effortless - all framed by a peaceful bushland backdrop just minutes from everything you need. From the moment you enter, the sense of space is immediate. The main living level carries real warmth and character, anchored by a front lounge featuring raked ceilings, a cosy wood fire heater and an easy flow through to the dining area and front deck. It's the kind of space that naturally draws people together - relaxed, welcoming and perfect for quiet nights in or easy family living. At the heart of the home, the kitchen commands a beautiful outlook over the backyard and sparkling inground pool, connecting seamlessly with the meals area and extending out to the covered balcony that runs the full width of the home. This is the everyday heartbeat of the property - morning coffees, long lunches, weekend BBQs and evening gatherings all find their place here without effort. A second living/rumpus zone adds another layer of freedom to the floorplan, complete with split system air conditioning and its own balcony access. Whether it's a media room, kids' retreat or a quiet escape, it gives the home that all-important separation families crave. Upstairs, the master bedroom feels like a private retreat, complete with walk-in wardrobe, modern ensuite and split system air conditioning. Three additional bedrooms all feature built-in robes, ceiling fans and durable tiled flooring, making day-to-day living both comfortable and low maintenance. And then there's the real game-changer - the fully self-contained lower level. With private access via rear stairs or side entry opens the door to genuine dual living. Complete with bathroom/laundry, living area and multiple additional rooms, it's ideal for extended family, independent teens or visiting guests, with great potential as a rental income stream as well. Outdoors, the lifestyle continues in full. The inground pool is beautifully finished with travertine-style surrounds, flowing into lawn and garden space with a handy shed for storage. Beyond that, the backyard opens directly onto council reserve, creating a rare sense of openness, privacy and connection to nature with a leafy bushland outlook that feels miles away from everything - yet isn't.
