Are you sick of city living with its fast pace lifestyle, and want to come home to a peaceful semi-rural setting each day? Don't be put off by the commute, you could spend the same amount of time getting across the city with its traffic congestion, roadworks and frustration. Instead, take a straight drive home with beautiful scenery both summer and winter, debrief, clear your head and arrive home ready to go into 'relax mode' and put work behind you.

Adjacent to a reserve and playground, and in a quiet cul de sac, the location of this home could provide the lifestyle change you're looking for.

This is a quality home of large proportion, with a smart layout that makes sense for families. All day sun fills the open plan kitchen/dining/family area which has direct outdoor access to a North facing patio, gazebo and established irrigated gardens. An adjacent separate lounge provides a second living area. For entertaining, the two living areas can be opened up to accommodate large gatherings. The kitchen can more than cater for such occasions with a double wall oven, plentiful bench space and a generous walk in pantry.

There are four bedrooms. The master is extra large with two double robes and outdoor access. An ensuite with a spa bath provides a bit of luxury. Two further double rooms and a large single complete the accommodation wing. A family bathroom, separate laundry, separate toilet with hand-basin and double internal access garage with drive through back door complete the footprint of this home. There is a rear patio behind the garage. Off street parking at front is a further bonus.

Double glazing, a gas heater in the family room and a night-store heater in the hall, mean this house is sure to keep the family cosy and warm, with gas water heating ensuring plenty of water for everyone.

So if you want to take your family out of the rat-race and have more quality time just being together, it could be the best move you ever make.

Make Darfield your destination.
