Wallalong, a delightful semi-rural suburb just a few minutes drive from the historic town of Morpeth and only 15-minutes drive from Maitland, makes 2 Brough Place an enviable location to call home.
Nestled in the highly desirable and tightly held Rosebank Estate, this truly unique acreage offers a substantial, quality family home on 2-acres and an abundance of features that will undoubtedly impress even the most discerning buyer.
Proudly sitting on a commanding corner block, the approach into the residence is through one of two electric gates that sit on either side of a half-moon driveway and with attached garage parking for up to four cars, no one will be left out in the rain on this property!
As you enter the solid brick property through the front door, you are greeted by a grand hallway with high ceilings. LED downlights are situated throughout, as well as a number of feature light fixtures in each of the living areas.
The oversized primary bedroom has carpet underfoot, a large walk-in wardrobe and a stunning ensuite with floor-to-ceiling tiles, dual vessel basins with wall-mounted mirrors, and a frameless shower cubicle. The bedroom is situated at the front of the house and has a peaceful outlook onto the gardens from a charming window seat.
From the other side of the hallway, you enter a grand formal living and dining room which is bathed in light from the numerous windows and where a gas log fireplace sits central to the room providing warmth in the winter, whilst creating a wonderful atmosphere at family gatherings.
French doors lead from the hallway into an impressive open-plan kitchen, living and dining area which is the real heart of the house with plenty of room for the whole family to relax and unwind at the end of the day. There are attractive wood effect floorboards that make this area of the house easy to maintain. Surround sound speakers have been fitted into the wall to provide a quality sound experience whilst the skylight has a clever dimmable switch that enables you to create a theatre-like environment at any time of the day.
From here, you can access the large wrap-around sunroom with retractable blinds that provides even more space for entertaining, accommodating the household pets or perhaps a studio for painting.
The well-appointed quality kitchen is fitted with 40mm Caesarstone benchtops and has been designed with a large family in mind; there is a freestanding 'DeLonghi' gas cooktop and electric oven with rotisserie function, as well as an additional 'DeLonghi' wall oven and separate grill! Timeless gloss white overhead and under bench cabinetry provides plenty of storage space and is fitted with a dishwasher and microwave.
The three further bedrooms are spacious and carpeted and all have built-in wardrobes. They share a recently updated three-way bathroom, ideal for those busy school mornings, including; a full-size bathtub and separate shower cubicle with a luxurious rainfall shower head.
All four bedrooms are fitted with ceiling fans and like the rest of the house, benefit from ducted air-conditioning. There is also an additional split system air-conditioner in the primary bedroom.
The laundry sits conveniently at the back of the house, with easy access to a large covered patio and the backyard.
At the rear of the garage is a huge rumpus room with a split system air-conditioner providing yet another functional living space for a growing family, such as a teenager's retreat or a gym.
As you head out to the expansive covered entertainment deck, you will be suitably impressed by its almost tropical resort-style setting; the pristine in-ground swimming pool with stone tile surround provides plenty of room for sun-beds and parasols and a covered spa and bar is a welcome addition for the winter months.
The property also features a show-stopping addition - an incredible natural pond complete with a wooden bridge and rowing boat. Home to such birds as ducks, lorikeets and parrots as well as long neck turtles, the sound of running water from its spectacular fountain creates a zen-like atmosphere throughout the landscaped gardens and at night can be lit up to provide an impressive visual.
The acreage is fully fenced with post and rail and has been lovingly maintained by the current owners with the aid of a built-in garden watering system and has established garden beds, trees and plants as well as an additional feature Japanese bridge.
Behind the house, is an 18kw generator with an automatic start, in the event of a blackout and a substantial solar hot water tank to service all the family's needs.
Set to the side of the house is an impressive 7.5m x 11.2m shed that can accommodate additional vehicles or boats, including headroom for a motorhome. The rear of the shed has been fitted with a toilet and shower giving you the possibility to convert it into a granny flat if desired.
