This sleek 4-bedroom home rests in the sought-after contemporary estate of St John’s Village. This home is where modern style and homeliness walk hand in hand, and open natural surroundings offer a sense of freedom within the estate. Positioned on a prime corner stand, this home enjoys uninterrupted views over green fields stretching to the forest beyond—an ever-changing backdrop of tranquility and space.

With two entrances, convenience is built into the design. One entrance is through the double garage, offering direct access into the home, while the second takes you up a charming pathway to the front door. Step inside, and you’ll be greeted by spacious open-plan living areas, enhanced by high ceilings and chic vinyl flooring. The dining area flows effortlessly onto the garden through stack doors, perfect for placing some garden furniture and simply appreciating the fresh air. The lounge, warm and inviting, features a bay window, a freestanding fireplace for cozy evenings, and a modern chandelier that adds a touch of elegance.

The kitchen is a dream for those who love to cook and entertain. It’s generous in size, offering ample cupboard and counter space, exposed beams with a stylish chandelier, an eye-level oven, hob with extractor fan, and a prep bowl. One could comfortably add a centre island. A full corner cupboard provides excellent storage, while the scullery to the side, complete with a double sink, keeps everything neatly tucked away. From here, the back door opens to a private courtyard with a steel wash basin and a washline—practical and convenient.

Heading towards the bedrooms, a guest toilet is positioned for easy access. The main bedroom is a serene retreat with abundant cupboard space, including a built-in vanity counter. Cleverly concealed behind a cupboard door, the ensuite bathroom is beautifully appointed with a bath, a large shower, double basins, and a toilet. The guest bedroom is filled with natural light and features a striking brick accent wall, ceiling fan, and built-in vanity. A barn door leads to its ensuite bathroom, complete with a shower, basin, and toilet.

Upstairs, two more fair-sized bedrooms share a bathroom with a shower, basin, and toilet—ideal for family or visiting guests.

The automated double garage is more than just a place to park—it boasts a durable screed floor, a built-in counter at the back, a handy storage nook under the staircase, and houses a Sunsynk 5kVA solar power system with eight panels, ensuring energy efficiency and cost savings.

Outside, the garden is manageable and well-established, bordered by fencing and low shrubs that allow you to fully appreciate the stunning open views. A wooden gate on the side invites you to step through, up the bank and onto the adjacent open plot, which leads on to the arboretum—an irresistible invitation for peaceful walks. Best of all, both the neighboring plot and the land forming part of your view are protected from future development, meaning your sense of space and freedom is here to stay.

This is more than just a house—it’s a lifestyle. The estate offers 24 hour security, a communal swimming pool, a clubhouse that can be hired out, 3 dams and walks around the estate. The St John’s Village Shopping Centre is withing walking distance of the main gate should you need anything last minute. If you’re looking for a home that combines contemporary design, practical living, and a connection to nature, this one is not to be missed.
