The facade at 28 Strachan Avenue, Manifold Heights.
BUILT almost a year ago, this stunning, split-level home practically smells brand new (both the agent and vendor can confirm).
And, if privacy, relaxation and stress-free living is high on your buyer checklist, 28 Strachan Avenue is the home for you.
Everything about it is dedicated to pursuing life’s simple pleasures, whether it be
hanging by the (paved) poolside or sharing a meal in the huge dining and living zone with vaulted ceilings.

Perhaps you might entertain friends in the outdoor area that has a weather sensored vergola, a built-in bar fridge to serve drinks from and a gas barbecue to cook the steaks.
What a relaxation station.
Or, take a quiet moment inside from a premium position in the first-floor sitting room to watch the world go by via the streetscape outside.
“It’s a great house, we love it,” the vendor said.
“It’s a peaceful, quiet area and very calming.”
The home was originally crafted with a view to retirement, so absolutely everything has been thought of, including extra storage.
But alas, life intervened, so, it’s ripe and ready for a new owner to move in and enjoy.
How’s that for a feature pendant light?
And, with all the hard work done, they won’t need to lift a finger for years.
Inside, there’s quality at every turn, with Blackbutt flooring and double-glazed windows and doors.
The first floor is dedicated to parents and relaxation with a huge walk-in his/hers wardrobe, luxe ensuite, patio, retreat space and study nook.
The bathrooms take luxe to a new level.
“The house is very easy to maintain,” the vendor said.
“It was built by A.S. Gleeson Construction, they did an awesome job.”
The designer kitchen is a showstopper, with stone benchtops and splashbacks, a Miele dishwasher, Falcon cooker and oven, Siemens multi-function microwave/steamer and big Butler’s panty.

The window placement is a highlight throughout, with natural light streaming in at all angles.
Cosy up with some reading material or just enjoy the view.
“That’s (the window placement) one of the main things we like,” the vendor said.
“We love a lot of light and like to have a lot of open areas.”
Timber plays a leading role inside.
Wilsons, Geelong agent Jacob Hohmann has the listing, with a price guide of $1.97 million, and said the property, set on a 635sq m allotment, had plenty of ‘wow’ factor, both inside and out.
“It defines the term ‘bringing the outside’ in and truly leaves you speechless and in awe as you walk through,” Mr Hohmann said.
“There’s a number of hidden extras that make it extra comfortable.”
Among them, a camera and alarm system, remote-controlled fans and 8.5kw solar panel system.
Other outside highlights include an oversized double garage with storage room and garden shed. Even the nature strip has been included in the garden irrigation system.
Other features include reverse cycle heating and cooling together and a gas log fire.
