This five-bedroom house in Harrison boasts a commanding position from the street, with a striking facade and bright, landscaped greenery.

Space is in spades beyond the front door, as is privacy, making this home perfect for a large or growing family.

Inside, visitors are greeted by a fresh, sleek palette of neutral colours.

At the end of a foyer are multiple, spacious living areas, including a formal lounge and dining room with solid hardwood floors.

Next door, a modern kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops and a large walk-in pantry overlooks the open-plan family and meals area.

The addition of doors between the two spaces offers flexibility. Both open onto the covered alfresco area outside, overlooking the landscaped yard.

Most of the bedrooms are located upstairs, including the master with a walk-in wardrobe and views over the surrounding region.

It connects to an en suite with a large seamless glass shower and toilet.

The remaining two bedrooms feature built-in robes.

Nearby, the bathroom includes a built-in bath and a seamless glass shower.

The rear of the first floor opens onto a large balcony, with sweeping views across the area.

A fourth bedroom and en suite are located on the ground floor, perfect for guests or relatives.

A study on the same floor could double as a spare bedroom.

The property also features a large laundry, a ground-floor powder room and a triple-car garage with extra storage and workshop space.

Instant gas hot water; a security system; and in-slab heating in the kitchen and family area, the foyer and the downstairs bathroom, are among the hidden inclusions.

The property is close to parkland and a short drive from the town centre.

We love: Light-filled living areas offer plenty of space for a family to stretch out.
