Elevated Family Sanctuary with Studio in Coveted Coulthard Street

This imposing retro inspired residence is ideal for a large family, or for those requiring multi-generational living. Set high on the rise in one of the most sought-after streets, this warm and inviting brick veneer home sits proudly on a 1011m² block, surrounded by mature trees and beautifully landscaped gardens. The home faces south, allowing the sun to stream into the north-facing back garden, filling the living spaces with natural light and warmth throughout the day. This large family home boasts two spacious living areas, plus a studio, perfect for multi-generational living and only 350 metres from the Wheeler Street bus.

Stepping into the wide entrance foyer, a sense of calm and spaciousness immediately greets you. The east wing opens to a welcoming lounge and a generous double bedroom, perfect for guests or extended family. The heart of the home is the modern chef's kitchen, fitted with a gas hob, electric oven, dishwasher, pantry and an abundance of storage. It flows seamlessly to the expansive living and dining area, where polished japanned floorboards gleam underfoot.

A cosy study nook tucks neatly into one corner, providing the perfect space for work or quiet reflection. From here, sliding doors open to a rear porch and a landscaped garden designed for peaceful outdoor living.

The west wing continues the thoughtful layout with two comfortable bedrooms, each with built-in robes and a generous separate study. Here you find a stylish family bathroom with a separate W.C., and a large laundry/mudroom offering both practicality and charm. The main bedroom feels like a private retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and an elegant ensuite bathroom.

For those seeking a creative or professional space, the studio is an inspiring addition as a teenage retreat, an office or perhaps a studio for artistic pursuits. Cleverly designed across two levels, it begins with a cosy 3x4 metre workspace warmed by a wood-burning stove, then steps down to a spacious 8x4 metre lower level that opens onto a timber deck. From here, the view spills out over a striking cactus garden and two adjoining pergola and alfresco areas, perfect for entertaining or unwinding in the late afternoon light.

Beneath the home lies ample under-house storage, and the grounds themselves offer space for children to play, for gardeners to create, and for families to gather. The japanned timber floors throughout bring richness and warmth, while the home's elevated position captures light, air and a true sense of serenity.

With its blend of comfort, character and creative energy, this is more than a home - it's a haven, perfectly suited to family life, entertaining and working from home.
