You’ll be amazed at what awaits inside this charming home.

The cottage facade will delight from the first glance, with high ceilings gracing the interiors. A cathedral ceiling with gabled windows makes a stunning statement in the open plan living/dining/kitchen zone, which creates a contemporary retreat for everyone to enjoy. Leafy gardens are captured through every window, while the adjoining sitting room is the perfect place to set up a home office or dedicated kid’s play space. The light-filled kitchen is beautifully appointed with stainless steel appliances (Bosch dishwasher, NEFF oven, Bosch induction cooktop).

Overlooking the front garden, the main bedroom features a walk-in robe and en suite. Two additional bedrooms with built-in robes share close access to the main bathroom, while the laundry and separate toilet complete the layout. You’ll be in comfort all year long thanks to ducted heating, a split-system air conditioner, ceiling fans and double-glazing to the living zones.

Outside, the covered alfresco deck is the perfect place to enjoy peaceful weekends. You’ll love that the deck flows onto the backyard, where gorgeous gardens create your very own private oasis. An ornamental grapevine drapes over the second decked area, where you’ll love soaking up the northern sunshine during the cooler months. A veggie garden and lemon tree provide plenty of fresh produce. Other features include a rainwater tank, external window awnings and a remote double garage with internal access.

This peaceful cul de sac is simply delightful, with a gorgeous communal garden connecting you to Mercia Park. The park invites you to walk to the Tim Hill Recreation Reserve, which is home to a variety of sporting grounds. Both Highton Village and the Porter Avenue shops are within easy reach, while nearby schools include Highton Primary School, Belmont High School and the Christian College Campuses. Enjoy proximity to the Ring Road and Deakin University (Waurn Ponds).
