Bucking many trends typical of the location, this home offers a substantial footprint - with two living areas, an internal courtyard, and triple-car garaging there is so much to love.

This builder's own home in a quiet cul-de-sac has been modernised over the last 8 years and blends classic architecture with contemporary comfort. An open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting room has become the heart of this home, designed for everyday ease and entertaining. A second sunken lounge makes for the western wing; with floor to ceiling windows and a cathedral ceiling it is light filled, and steps effortlessly out onto a fully landscaped outdoor entertaining area to the north. At the centre of the floorplan, an internal courtyard draws light deep into the home and creates a unique sense of space.

All bedrooms are generously proportioned, the primary suite taking the top spot, maximising sun on the north-west corner, and with a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite. The three remaining bedrooms share an updated bathroom, with a separate toilet for convenience.

The triple-car garaging and rumpus space also houses the laundry, but there is provision for it to be inside already. It's evident we could go on forever about 16 Chilton Drive, it's probably best you come and see what all the fuss is about yourself!
