** SOLD AT AUCTION ** This unique four bedroom family property is on the ball when it comes to important issues such as environmentally conscious and sustainable living.

If you care about your carbon footprint then this may be just the home you’ve been searching for. You will be absolutely delighted with the eco-friendly infrastructure the current owners have thoughtfully put into place.

To begin with, the property includes two solar panel systems totalling an amazing 6.9 kW with a massive 53.8 cent feed in tariff. That’s huge savings, electricity bills will be a thing of the past.

East facing windows have been tinted to minimise the affects of temperature change and aluminium roller shutters have also been installed on selected windows for both sound and temperature control.

Four rainwater tanks provide a total capacity of 13,500 litres to go towards human consumption as well as irrigating the extensive lawns and gardens.

This is where it gets interesting. The house is situated on a huge end allotment approximately 820 square metres in total. Fully established gardens have been carefully planned out to include family friendly lawn areas as well as vast sections for growing your own vegetables plus an assortment of over 20 fruit trees and vines. There is also a spacious fenced area to keep several free-range chickens very happy.

The rear yard is fully fenced and private. It includes valuable drive through rear access via a set of double gates. There is abundant space to park a boat or caravan if required.

In addition to the open space areas, the property also comes with two large undercover paved entertaining areas, both with pitched roof construction and power. One is freestanding, semi enclosed and includes roll down zip track blinds. The other adjoins the rear of the house and includes lattice privacy screens. Alongside is a herb garden and waterfall feature plus an authentic custom made wood oven to bake your own mouth-watering bread and pizza!

Other notable features outside include a wood shed, garden shed, folding clothesline, built in children’s sandpit and tiered fish pond.

The residence itself is very stylish and modern throughout with a light neutral colour scheme. It offers four large bedrooms all with built in robes, carpet and blinds. The master bedroom boasts a spacious ensuite and walk in robe.

A stunning tiled entrance hall leads through to an elegant formal living room which includes quality drapes, carpet plus handy wall mount bracket for your plasma television and is pre-wired for surround sound.

At the rear is the light filled open plan family, kitchen and meals area featuring tiled floors and two large bay windows with lovely views over the gardens.

Timeless in white is the big beautiful kitchen which boasts a wrap around bench, raised servery, walk in corner pantry, overheads, fridge space and double stainless steel sink with water filtration system. It is well equipped with stainless steel Westinghouse appliances including a wall oven, gas cook top and retractable range hood. There is also a Bosch automatic dishwasher.

Situated near the bedrooms is a convenient three way family bathroom with guest powder area and built in linen press.
The adjacent laundry is also fitted out with built in storage cupboards and bench.

The property includes a double garage UMR with automatic roll-a-doors and direct internal access. A paved double driveway provides additional off-street parking.

Other notable features include a tiled front porch with security screen entrance, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning and heating throughout and pre-installed wiring for an outdoor speaker system.

This is without doubt a unique offering situated in modern suburbia so close to all conveniences and just 15km to the CBD.
