A gated gravel driveway leads to the homestead which is set well back from the road and neighbours. Nestled amongst gorgeous cottage style gardens which include clipped hedges, a variety of rare plants and beautiful established trees, the residence enjoys private and peaceful garden views from almost every aspect.

Enter the home to a spacious entrance foyer. To the left of the entrance is a lounge room with a lovely fireplace which forms the focal point of the room, and a formal dining room. To the right of the entrance you will find the largest of the three bedrooms on the ground level. All of the bedrooms have built in robes, and like all of the rooms of this cleverly designed home, take full advantage of the picturesque garden vistas on offer. The bedrooms share the use of a spacious family bathroom which boasts marble bench tops and floors and white subway tiles.

The kitchen is undeniably the hub of this home and it enjoys delightful views over the front gardens and easy access to the large al fresco and formal dining room. Featuring black granite bench tops, 900mm ILVE free standing range and built in microwave and Miele dishwasher, this is a kitchen to please the most discerning home chef. With plenty of room for a casual meals area and a Jarrahdale wood heater for the cooler months, this is a space where family will congregate to spend time and enjoy each others company.

A number of clever features have been integrated into the kitchen, and this careful planning and attention to detail is also evident in the laundry which is as attractive as it is functional. Designed for use as a servery as well as a laundry, it has granite bench tops, a dual use bar/laundry sink and a built in Vintec beverage centre. The direct access out to the al fresco area makes this an invaluable extra servery when entertaining family and friends.

Upstairs you will find a large study and a big bedroom with walk in robes. A delightful balcony from this bedroom provides the perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or perhaps a glass of wine as the sun goes down. The view from the balcony is private and simply perfect.

Wander outside to the magnificent gardens. A number of rare plants are dotted in amongst established tress, agapanthus, roses and various other cottage plantings. Watch the children play on the lush lawns as you relax in the shade of the wrap around verandahs which protect the home, or wander through the many garden rooms to find the perfect spot in which to enjoy the different aspects of this bird haven. With plenty of space on the property to indulge the kids (or grandkids) wish for a pony, this is Hills living at its best!

"Silverstone" has many other features including double garage and carport, air conditioning and under-stair wine storage, just to name a few.
