85 Marshmeadow Road, Newstead

A stellar example of high-end lifestyle living, this 342 sq m (more or less) home and its location are nothing short of impressive. Charming, spacious, and delightfully private, this classic country residence was designed by Lafferty Architects and built by Marcus Grayling. The high-stud, tiled entrance hallway is welcoming and has an office to the left, and open-plan living to the right. High vaulted ceilings amplify the sense of volume, and French doors promote cohesion between internal and external spaces. Outdoor recreation and entertaining are centered on an inground saltwater pool and alfresco niches. It's easy to imagine summer days lazing by the pool and hosting family and friends. Cooks can rely on a kitchen with quality appliances, ample space, and flow into the living zone. Through double doors is a formal lounge, access to outdoor living, and rural views. A third living area across the hallway is a fabulous media/breakout room. Personal space is offered by four well-appointed double bedrooms, including a master with a full ensuite, a walk-in dressing room, patio access, and a rural outlook. The laundry features custom-built cabinetry, a hot water cupboard, and a separate toilet. Internally accessed triple-car garaging has automatic doors, a loft, and storage cupboards. A wood burner, a living flame gas fire, a heat transfer system, HRV, and central vac, ensure a high level of comfort and ease. North-facing groomed grounds and eclectic plantings which capture all-day sun are a beautiful complement to this awesome home. There is a utility garden, wood store, large garden shed, and outside sink. The property is fully fenced and gated, and a safe haven for children and pets. In the heart of Newstead, this family retreat boasts good school zoning and delivers outstanding lifestyle convenience. Hamiton's south-east suburbs and the new expressway are close.
