The EASY Tree-Change (1/3 Acre approx) - $550000

Description

Sale by SET DATE 11/8/2009 In staggering contrast to busy built-up suburbia, where a home often looks like the one next door ... this 1/3 acre (approx) custom-designed homestead architecturally designed by John Pizzey interfaces beautifully with Warrandyte's uniquely scenic character and its much-loved village-style community. So, it's no surprise (but still a wondrous sight) when the home's large picture windows bring glorious views of The Dandenongs into the living room. All the magical components of country-styled living are here for the taking ... a hot cuppa on the ranch-style verandah or your favourite retreat-spot in the peaceful garden; your kids enjoying this new-found space and security, while you're actually enjoying time in the timber character-kitchen; breakfasts and barbeques on the brick-paved patio ... and your favourite chair's waiting for you by the awesome open fireplace! With substance and style, the home's earthy elegance translates to comforting character, heightened by rich timber ceilings, warm textured brickwork and light streaming in from over-sized windows. It offers 3 double robed-bedrooms including very spacious master with ensuite, formal AND casual living with great views from ALL aspects. Appointments: slab floor heating, air conditioning, generous shed, remote-controlled garage PLUS an extraordinary amount of driveway parking. While Warrandyte has such a relaxed people-friendly vibe that's just like being in the country, it's still less than 45 minutes from the CBD via freeway; serviced by Melbourne-East's most prestigious private schools and quality shopping precincts; and on the doorstep of the gorgeous cafe and restaurant strip that draws admiring visitors from miles around.
