Combining the solidity and permanence of a classic brick build with the contemporary style and comforts of a modern home, 14 Banks Avenue is a four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence in Kooringal that perfectly demonstrates what a well-thought-out renovation can do.
The foundation of the home is its layout. The main bedroom, with a walk-in robe and ensuite, is thoughtfully located at the front of the property, separate from the rest of the home, making it a perfect private retreat.
The rest of the floor plan reveals a careful design that keeps indoor entertainment and living spaces separated from bedrooms.
“The design is quite smart; private space and communal space are kept apart. Yet the layout of the home lends itself well to being swapped out as needs demand. One of the generously sized bedrooms could be altered as the family changes,” Macarthur Real Estate agent Lachlan Day says.
In addition, the indoor-outdoor entertainment spaces are connected by sliding doors, creating a flow from the open kitchen/dining area to the alfresco area, all the way to the pool.
The outdoor entertainment area is a story in itself, with an in-ground pool, heaps of yard space and the covered alfresco area – it’s a dream for someone with summer barbecues in mind.
“The backyard is really a private haven. The pool makes for a beautiful centrepiece, the garden provides a great spot for kids and thanks to eight-foot fences, it’s secure and secluded,” Lachlan says.
Building upon the home’s strong foundations, the renovations are stunning, making the property future-proof and adding a timeless character.
“They’ve kept the bones of the property and built upon that. The renovations have done so much for the home, aesthetically and practically,” Lachlan says.
The refresh excels in every space, especially in the updated kitchen with butler’s pantry, stone island benchtop, built-in cabinetry and oak accents; it serves well as the heart of the home.
Not to be outdone, the bathrooms offer a cooler colour palette compared with the warm tones of the living spaces.
“The bathrooms are really of an exceptional quality, especially the floor-to-ceiling tiles. The builder included top-notch finishes; they’ve gone above and beyond,” Lachlan says.
This family property strikes a difficult balance. It occupies a great position on a quiet street with views of Willans Hill, yet it is also just moments from great schools, churches, shopping and parks, combining centrality and peace.
“This part of Kooringal is a great school catchment area and a four-bedroom home like this in the area will be highly sought-after,” Lachlan says.
Ideal for a family, whoever is lucky enough to call 14 Banks Avenue home will enjoy proximity to the amenities they need without the hustle of the centre of town.
This property is move-in ready and full of ease-of-living features that make home management so easy. The home goes that extra mile with ducted evaporative cooling, gas heating, double vanities and heated towel racks.
Features such as the study, separate laundry and internally accessed double garage make the home that bit more convenient.
“The vendors have done something really unique here. It’s a special home,” Lachlan says.
