As you enter the property you will be delighted by the gorgeous garden full of poppies and sweet smelling roses. Up the front stairs this property offers the ever timeless and attractive Australiana front verandah. Once inside the home you will know you have entered a quality built home by the features evident in the generous formal, front rooms with a fire place, a bay window, ornate cornices and ceiling roses. This area is tucked away from the hub of the home which could provide the modern family with a theatre room or just a quiet space to relax and just be. To the left of the entry is the study and the master bedroom. The master bedroom is extremely generous in size with an open ensuite, a walk in robe and the not often found in a master ensuite, a bath. A clever feature of this area is the separate powder room which can be used by the master suite or those using the front rooms.

Further down the hallway you will pass through a doorway which zones off the front rooms from the open plan hub of the home. The kitchen, living and meals area with it's gorgeous country kitchen is spacious and offers a walk-in pantry. Picture windows look over the outdoor entertaining area and an established cool, green garden. Through this living area there is access to the outdoor entertainers' courtyard, a fabulous space for summer entertaining of family and friends. The architectural feature of a raked ceiling adds to the 'hills' character and warmth of this home. Comfort year round is provided by a slow combustion heater, evaporative air-conditioner and a reverse cycle split system in the formal area.

The laundry is huge and found opposite the kitchen it is perfect for all those muddy boots of little ones playing in the fabulous yard and that delight in collecting eggs from your own chickens or collecting handfuls of your very own produce.

Towards the rear of the home is the junior wing with two good sized bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate toilet.

Not only does this property shine in offering a warm and comfortable family home a splendid treat is to be found in the garden with so many established fruit trees with the star of the orchard being the old, large and very productive apricot tree. Cute garden gates lead to the chicken yard where the apricot tree is found.

Towards the back of the block, with side access, is a powered workshop ready for someone to tinker, for an artist to create or ready to be transformed into a fabulous mancave.

This property is close to almost everything Glen Forrest offers; The Train Park, Heritage Trail, school, cafes, gift shop, restaurant and the fabulous Community Garden. Walking distance to the Glen Forrest Sports Club which is a local favourite and provides a space for many local celebrations. Walk to regular public transport, great for teenagers and easy commuting distance to the airport and the city.
