The home, accessed via a circular driveway, is bathed in natural light thanks to French doors and large windows throughout.
Living areas are where this family-friendly home shines, with formal lounge and large family room, both with gas log fires, plus separate dining area.
The family room, with abundant built-in cabinetry, looks out across the pool while the formal lounge opens out to the landscaped front garden enjoying stunning views across Geelong.
Another large living area offers the option of a home office or gym, with the cabana and undercover terrace providing poolside leisure space for guests or as a teen retreat.
The family room and dining area are the focal points for get-togethers and entertaining, opening out through stacker doors to an alfresco space and landscaped pool area, while the kitchen conveniently also has a servery to the pool and entertaining hub.
Kitchen highlights include Oak cabinetry, Corian benchtops, plenty of cupboard space and Miele appliances, including dual ovens.
The home is carefully positioned in the middle of the large block, providing plenty of greenery and privacy between you and neighbours.
The separate study and all four spacious bedrooms look out across the serene front garden and include built-in wardrobes.
The master bedroom also boasts a quality ensuite and its own private veranda for quiet time away from the family hub.
The central family bathroom features floor-to-ceiling tiles, heated towel rail, frameless shower and separate bath.
Other highlights include polished timber floors, central heating, two lock-up storage rooms, mature landscaped gardens, large separate laundry and a third toilet attached to the cabana.
