25 Roxby Street Manifold Heights

Expansive living spaces combine with a resort-style pool to create an entertainer's masterpiece in blue-chip Manifold Heights.

With three large living areas, two alfresco terraces and a balcony view that takes in lights as far afield as GMHBA Stadium, it's also a stunning family retreat.

The immaculate home, walking distance to cafes and shops on Pakington St and Shannon Ave, is set well back off the tree-lined street on 1105sqm (approx.) amid landscaped gardens highlighted by a remarkable South African tulip tree.

The heart of the elegant home is a light-filled lounge, dining and kitchen zone, with sliding doors opening wide to extend the living space onto a long poolside terrace for alfresco entertaining. The central family-size kitchen boasts granite countertops, an island bench, 900mm-wide Smeg oven and cooktop, loads of storage, including a walk-in pantry with appliance station and a wall of cupboards with pantry space.

The living areas accommodate a full-size dining table and multiple sofas for family-friendly time and guest get-togethers. A large formal lounge room with gas log fire opens onto a wide, north-facing front veranda from which to enjoy the serene garden outlook. Two bedrooms share a private wing at the front of the home, off the wide entry hall. The master suite, looking across the garden, features a walk-in robe, two-way bathroom with soaker tub, separate shower and twin vanities. Upstairs is another large living room/retreat with sink, bench and cupboards, plus treetop balcony views, making it ideal for drinks at sunset. The second level features a private study area with custom bookshelves. Two further bedrooms, including a second master option with walk-in robe, share access to a central bathroom. An easily accessible attic area provides abundant storage or fifth bedroom.

The swimming pool boasts its own cabana area and is heated for year-round comfort.

Off-street parking is a breeze with a double garage with workshop area accessed from a wide lane at the rear, plus a front carport and long driveway.

Other highlights include drive-through yard access, large laundry with benches/storage, two downstairs powder rooms, new ducted heating on the ground floor, split-system units, ceiling fans, solar panels and two rainwater tanks. The property is a few minutes' walk to Manifold Heights PS, with Clonard College, St Joseph's College, playgrounds, reserves, train station, CBD, waterfront and Ring Road are all convenient.
