'Imagine all the family sharing in this home.' There is a fair chance this is what John Lennon would say if he saw this beautiful home and was writing a new line in his iconic song 'Imagine.'
Located on the Mt Pleasant/Booragoon border in the Blue Gum Lake precinct, opposite the splendid Ratcliffe park, is a magnificent family home. Part art deco, part modern and contemporary, part red brick revival and completely homely. This remarkable home speaks of connection, conversation, harmony, love, and memories.
It is big. It is beautiful. It is functional. Looking through the expansive front windows from the second level of this home, it is impossible to describe just how relaxing and comfortable it is. Seated at the kitchen bench, tea/coffee, beer, or vino at hand, engaging in earnest and interesting conversation, all whilst taking in this mesmerising canvas of greenery looking right back at you. The stories of watching the kids on the swings, kicking the footy, or climbing the trees in the parkland from this vantage point are real.
When you come and have a look at this place, you will get it.
Imagine entertaining here. Imagine summer. Imagine the kids in the pool, in the yard, or at the huge park across the street where you pretty much have 'squatters rights' as a local resident.
Imagine walking to the river, the train, and Garden City. Imagine being 10 mins from the City.
Imagine Blue Gum tennis and squash club and the expansive Karoonda reserve playing fields just around the corner.
5 bedrooms, 3 renovated bathrooms, 3 WC's, 2 levels, 3 car garage, huge glass fence enclosed swimming pool, outdoor below ground spa. Enormous, fully appointed, architecturally designed central kitchen space, 5 separate indoor/outdoor living areas, home office and ample storage. All surrounded by undulating, manicured, reticulated lawns and gardens.
Imagine the possibility of generational living. Beds and baths on the ground level. Beds and baths on the top.
Imagine sitting, eating, drinking, and laughing together as a family, at the longest central kitchen bench you have ever seen.
Here is the kicker. The really big ticket. The Future Proofing.
Imagine if your family has grown and flown the coop and you could subdivide your 801m2 lot. Sell 1 half if you like, and build your perfect downsizer home on the other. Well, you can. (STCA)
