Description
Auction from 10am Sat 21 Feb 2026 (unless sold prior) Privately positioned at the end of a lane way and immaculate in every respect, this 1.69-hectare Prebbleton property captures the lighter side of lifestyle living only minutes from village convenience. Introducing the property, the Mt Fuji cherry tree lined driveway creates a seasonal welcome each year. Built in 2009, the home's Hebel concrete construction and double glazing establish a low-maintenance, single-level framework that performs long-term. The layout is carefully layered with strong outdoor connections and defined zones for daily living, entertaining and downtime, allowing the home to function comfortably at full capacity. Everyday life centres on a high-stud open-plan living room, complemented by a separate dining area, while the games room provides a social setting, where a built-in bar, timber panelling and window seat give the space genuine character. Granite benchtops, a Smeg oven, a six-burner gas hob and a scullery define the kitchen's capability, with patio-facing windows allowing entertaining to effortlessly extend outdoors. Scaled to accommodate larger gatherings, the patio is not only central but spacious and sheltered, framed by landscaped grounds that give this country setting its picture-perfect finish. Accommodation spans five bedrooms and three bathrooms, led by a master suite with a walk-in robe, en-suite and outdoor access, while a second en-suite bedroom is well suited to guests or teenagers. A purpose-built office, separate laundry, and internal-access triple garaging with attic storage are matched by comprehensive comfort, including hydronic underfloor heating, a diesel boiler, and radiators in every bedroom. Beyond the home, the land is practical and productive, with a fully fenced paddock, town water supply, a separate double garage with workshop, and a permanent container with lean-to, while established vegetable gardens and a wide variety of fruiting trees provide seasonal reward from the land. Just minutes from Prebbleton School and village shopping, with Halswell close by and an easy run into the city, this property keeps everyday life convenient while firmly holding to its country footing.
