8 Illawong Way

Perched proudly on a spacious elevated block and gazing out across beautiful Illawong Park, this enchanting 4 bedroom 2 bathroom family sanctuary feels like it has been lifted straight from a storybook. Situated within a whisper-quiet looped locale, it offers the perfect blend of character, comfort and family-friendly living, where leafy outlooks and the sounds of kids playing in the neighbouring playground create a truly special atmosphere. Sit and embrace pleasant parkland views from both your own portico entrance and an open paved pergola that captures all of the natural morning sunshine, above established front gardens. Inside, warm and welcoming spaces combine with a practical floor plan designed to bring everyone together while still allowing room to retreat and relax. A tiled double-door entry foyer overlooks the sunken and generous carpeted front lounge room with a ceiling fan, a feature gas fireplace and a tiled dining room raised above. Separate double French doors extend the lounge to a stunning front pergola entertaining deck under the vines, complete with benched seating, an additional deck/courtyard area and a slice of the sweeping tree-lined parkland vista at hand. An arched French door reveals a tiled master-bedroom suite that also occupies the front of the house whilst boasting a fan, split-system air-conditioning, attractive white plantation window shutters, electric security roller shutters, park views to wake up to, double French pergola doors, separate "his and hers" mirrored built-in wardrobes and a fully-tiled ensuite bathroom - shower, toilet, vanity, heated towel rack, heat lamps and all. A commodious central family room is also tiled for easy living and features high angled ceilings, space for casual meals, a gas bayonet for further heating, a ceiling fan, stylish light fittings and a built-in bar. It sits adjacent to a charming kitchen that also links through to the dining room - and beyond. Double French doors connect the dining room to a fabulous pitched outdoor patio-entertaining area, with a ceiling fan. Separate double French doors allow the family room to seamlessly flow out to a second pitched patio space for further alfresco-style entertaining, right beside low-maintenance artificial turf (with two shade sails), benched seating under the vines and a huge below-ground salt-water swimming pool with a paved and shaded poolside courtyard. At the rear lies a massive under-cover third patio that has a clothesline and is essentially an open games/activity/hobby area with gated access to the main entertaining area. Back indoors, a French door shuts off the minor sleeping quarters from the main living zone, revealing a linen press, two carpeted spare bedrooms with built-in double robes that overlook the pool, a carpeted back fourth bedroom with mirrored built-in robes, a fully-tiled main family bathroom with a shower, separate bathtub, a powder vanity, heat lamps and a heated towel rail, a separate second toilet and a separate laundry with over-head and under-bench storage - and external access to the side of the residence. Stroll around the corner to local restaurants, a liquor store, other lush green parklands and even Greenwood Station, with the natural beauty of Yellagonga Regional Park and spectacular Lake Goollelal also very much within arm's reach. Families will love the choice of quality schooling nearby - The Montessori School is only a leisurely walk away, the nearest early-learning centre is just steps from your front door and both the Halidon and Goollelal Primary Schools are a quick car trip from home. When it comes to living convenience, it doesn't get much better - with shopping, public transport, the freeway, the iconic Galaxy Drive-In Theatre and even the coast all within a stone's throw. The property is also nestled within the sought-after Greenwood College catchment zone, as an added bonus. With the park quite literally across the road and a wonderful sense of peace all around, this is the kind of unique home where cherished family memories are waiting to be made!
