Nothing says "prestige property" quite like a river view - though in the case of this home you might also want to add sprawling interiors, timeless design and expansive gardens to the list of luxuries that await!
There is something so effortlessly elegant about this property. Inside you are met with soaring, high ceilings, original hardwood floors, and banks of tall glass windows to the rear that not only bathe the home in natural light but also draw your eye to the breathtaking views of the pool, lush gardens and the river beyond. Ducted air conditioning throughout ensures you will also stay effortlessly cool in the sweltering summer ahead, while the three spacious living areas and clever split-level layout promise so much flexibility to suit any size of family at any stage of life.
And while of course the crowning jewel is the view, the outdoor lifestyle on offer here is equally magnificent. Think hours spent idling by the pool in the golden afternoon light, spectacular garden parties on the lush lawn, Christmas barbecues under the covered patio (using the outdoor kitchenette complete with built-in barbecue and gas burner) while the kids hit the cricket pitch in the yard or play endless games of tiggy in the fully fenced, grassed yard - all set against the backdrop of the river and the serene, leafy surrounds. Not to mention this comes set on nearly ? an acre of land so you have plenty of space to do all four of those things at once if you like!
Prestige homes in this condition and especially in this part of Fig Tree Pocket are very rare to come to market, so don't miss your chance to get in on the high life!
