Step through the gate and you instantly know, this is a house like no other!

It's the kind of place where awe settles in before words ever can. The gardens spill out in every direction, lush and abundant. The pool sparkles beyond the decks. Mosaic details catch the light. Lead lighting glows softly. Everywhere you look there is character, colour, and creativity. It feels less like a property and more like stepping into a whimsical movie set, a home lovingly layered over time, rich with personality and soul. Truly, something straight out of The Good Life.

Set on a sprawling 900m²+ fully fenced section, this solid 1960s three-bedroom home delivers suburban convenience wrapped in a semi-lifestyle dream. From the moment you walk inside, there's a cool, relaxed, slightly quirky energy - warm, welcoming, and unmistakably unique.

The updated kitchen flows effortlessly into open-plan dining and lounge spaces, which open onto decks at both the front and back. You can follow the sun from your morning coffee to evening gatherings with friends. A compliant wood burner and 2 heat pumps ensure year-round comfort, while the separate toilet and bathroom add practical ease for busy family life.

But it's what lies beyond the main home that truly sets this property apart.

The four-bay garage has been transformed into an impressive, insulated studio/rumpus room complete with a second bathroom, an extraordinary bonus space. Work from home, create, entertain, host guests, run a hobby business, or let it become the ultimate games retreat. It's flexible, substantial, and filled with possibility.

Tucked quietly within the grounds is a separate art cabin, a peaceful sanctuary surrounded by greenery. Whether painting, crafting, writing, or simply exhaling, this is a space that invites inspiration. It perfectly captures the essence of the property: creative, calming, and deeply connected to nature.

Then there's the magical treehouse retreat, elevated, private, and brimming with adventure. A dream hideaway for teenagers or imaginative youngsters, where independence blossoms and lifelong memories are made.

The inground swimming pool completes the picture, promising long summer days of laughter and relaxed evenings with friends. With generous decking, an archgola, outdoor fire, and multiple entertaining zones, every season is catered for beautifully.

And the gardens… they are something truly special.

Approximately 40 fruit trees are established throughout the property, creating a productive mini-orchard rarely found in town. The mature plantings, expansive lawn, large storage shed, impressive playground structure, and space for vegetable gardens and there's even a chicken coop it feels like a slice of country living, yet you remain firmly within suburban convenience. Private, fully fenced for children and pets, abundant and alive. Ample parking space for the boat or caravan and 4 cars.

It's a sanctuary.
A creative haven.
