Set across more than an acre, the 4,447sqm setting announces itself on arrival, where a statement driveway and manicured grounds create a formidable first impression, giving the property the presence of a private estate.

Builder-owned and originally constructed in the 1960s, the home entered a new era in 2007, when Ray Hawthorne Design led an extensive renovation, expansion and the addition of its considerable garaging, with the entire upgrade delivered through a timeless design.
The layout carries a stronger sense of scale through its 2.7-metre stud, timber flooring and quality finishes, before two living rooms and a sizeable games room put family life and entertaining on multiple fronts.
The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area makes a direct move outdoors, opening to a sweeping patio with a built-in barbecue, where the pool, expansive lawns and picture-perfect gardens make summer one of the property's strongest suits, taking the day from swimming and backyard get-togethers to dinner, drinks and entertaining after dark.
Four bedrooms and two bathrooms provide generous family accommodation, with the master suite taking its own en-suite and walk-in robe, while ducted heating gives the bedrooms and bathrooms consistent all-season comfort.
The upper level of one of the garages adds another dimension to the layout through a bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette, currently used as an office while offering genuine privacy and valuable flexibility for work, guests or extended family.
Vehicle storage is in another league altogether. Around 223sqm of garaging gives collectors, contractors or car enthusiasts room to think big, with space for up to eight vehicles, including two 8.5-metre-deep bays, while extensive on-site parking comfortably absorbs any overflow.
From heating to home entertainment, the specification is simply superior, with heat pumps, gas fires, under-tile heating, gas hot water and a gas cooktop all in place, while a Yamaha and Novo home-theatre system and dual-zone alarm extend the standard across both the house and garaging.
Tucked away within a prestigious and private lane, the address keeps everyday essentials close without giving up its sense of seclusion, with Burnside Park just over 600 metres away, Avonhead Mall a minute down the road and prized zoning for Merrin School and Burnside High School, while direct city connections keep the commute simple.
From its grounds and garaging to its recreation and family flexibility, this property delivers design, depth and a level of distinction rarely found at one address.
