MODERN FAMILY MASTERPIECE

Get your family in the zone for a new school year, with this stylish home combining sophistication and realistic living in blue-chip Newtown.

The Geelong College, St Joseph’s College and Sacred Heart are all within easy reach for the kids to walk to school.

This home, designed for a modern family, has four generous bedrooms plus study and a stunning U-shaped extension housing a spacious high-end kitchen, dining and living zone.

The kitchen boasts wide stone bench tops and warm timber details, Blum drawers and plenty of storage for all your needs. Top-of-the range appliances, include a fully integrated AEG fridge and freezer, Neff fully integrated dishwasher, Double Siemens ovens, pyrolytic and steam as well as a Bora gas cooktop with built in extractor so there’s no need for a range hood.

The immaculate kitchen overlooks the living and dining rooms as well as the outdoor deck, so the chef is always at the heart of family activity.

The adjoining dining room has been designed to accommodate a family-size table.

The opposite side of this zone is a large living room, perfect for Sunday lounging together. A cozy window seat will become a favorite spot to relax.

When things gets too hectic, escape to the large formal lounge at the front of the house, with wood burning fireplace and overlooking the beautifully landscaped, garden.

A north-facing private back yard has room to kick a footy as well as rear land access.

Storage has been a priority during this renovation, with floor-to-ceiling cupboards a key feature in three of the bedrooms, as well as in the large family laundry and along the main hall.

The master bedroom also has plenty of storage and a generous size ensuite.

Other highlights include European oak floors, hydronic heating, ceiling fans, under floor heating in both bathrooms, plantation shutters and a custom-built drying cupboard in the laundry.

The property is walking distance to shopping on Shannon Ave and a stones throw to Queens Park.

It’s also an easy drive to the Ring Road to commute to Melbourne or to head to Geelong Railway Station and the CBD.
