This Lake Wendouree home is absolute blue-chip real estate. It's a stone's throw from the shores of beautiful Lake Wendouree and directly opposite the North Gardens Wetlands.

It's also within walking distance to the train station and a short stroll to Ballarat Botanical Gardens, plus your local supermarket and shops.

Designed to maximise views to the parkland and strategically placed on the allotment to take advantage of the northern sun, the property was built about 14 years ago by master builders.

The striking home has been purpose-built for ease of living, lifestyle and comfort. At the front of the home are the living spaces including a generous open-plan informal lounge with built-in cabinetry, as well as the dining area and kitchen.

There is a separate formal lounge with gas log fire, which is the ideal area for entertaining guests or for imbibing a quiet night cap at the end of the day.

The kitchen has been well thought out and includes a dishwasher, gas cook top, electric wall oven and walk-in pantry. There is a generous amount of storage as well.

The main bedroom is generous in proportion, with an enviable walk-in robe fitted out with built-in shelving and drawers. There is also an ensuite bathroom with oversized shower, toilet and vanity.

Bedroom two has built-in robes while the generously sized bedroom three could easily be used as a home office or study, a guest room or a nursery.

For those busy mornings there is also a central family bathroom, and a separate powder room.

This home has ducted heating, refrigerative cooling, double glazing throughout and quality window furnishings, which makes it economical and comfortable all year round.

The many features of this stunning home include quality fixtures and fittings, monitored Sectrol security system, security doors throughout, plus ample storage.

For the green thumb and gardening enthusiast there is a 1000 litre water tank for watering the fully landscaped and beautifully maintained gardens.

Secure and safe parking for your vehicles includes a lock-up garage plus additional undercover parking.

The jewel in the crown of this property is the location, as it is second to none with nearby public and private schools, Lake Wendouree at your doorstep and shops all within a short walk.

The home will suit retirees looking to downsize, out of town families looking for a central hub, families, or a couple looking for the lifestyle.

Opportunities such as this don't come along often. Don't delay, call today to arrange a private inspection.
