Karaka Lifestyle Without Workload | Ready to Move!

Discover a modern country retreat that perfectly balances lifestyle and liveability.

Positioned on a quiet Karaka lane, this elegant five-bedroom home delivers the best of both worlds - space, privacy, and resort-style living, without the upkeep of a large rural block.

Set on 1.02 ha of established gardens and mature trees, this property captures everything today's buyers want: multiple living zones, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, a saltwater pool, and a versatile shed (barn) with studio and bathroom.

A Lifestyle That Works

Designed in three distinct wings connected by sun-filled glass walkways, this home offers exceptional functionality and family separation.

• The Master Wing - A private retreat with a generous master suite, walk-in wardrobe, ensuite, and study. French doors open to a patio overlooking manicured lawns and the peaceful estuary - a serene start and finish to every day.

• The Family Wing - Perfectly designed for modern family life, with four bedrooms, a family lounge, bathroom, separate toilet, and laundry. The covered alfresco area is near the kitchen for easy entertaining and relaxed weekend living.

• The Central Living Hub - High ceilings, a feature fireplace, and a farmhouse-inspired kitchen form the heart of the home. Spacious open-plan living and dining areas flow into a conservatory bathed in natural light, opening out to the lawn and gardens beyond.

Grounds & Features

• In-ground saltwater pool surrounded by lush greenery - your own private resort.

• Orchard and veggie gardens with citrus and seasonal produce ready to harvest.

• Wide lawns and established trees framing tranquil estuary views.

• Walking access to the estuary through the neighbour's paddock.

• Barn complex with studio, and storage - ideal for extended family, guests, or a home business.

• Double garaging plus ample off-street parking for visitors, trailers, or toys.

Lifestyle Without the Workload

This is the property that gives you the lifestyle now - not one day. With just over a hectare of land, there's room to breathe without the burden of full-scale acreage. Enjoy summer days by the pool, evenings under the patio lights, and weekends exploring Karaka's coastal walks and boutique cafés.

The Karaka and Drury motorway on-ramps are approximately 10 minutes away, offering easy access north or south.

Families will appreciate being in zone for Karaka School, Rosehill College, ACG Strathallan, and St Ignatius of Loyola Catholic College, with excellent schooling options close to home.

Why This Property Stands Out

• 5 bedrooms + 2 bathrooms with a separate 3rd toilet - perfect for family separation and teenage harmony

• Barn with bathroom - multi-generation, studio, or work-from-home flexibility

• Saltwater pool & orchard - lifestyle without the workload

• 1.02 ha (approx.) - space and privacy without the acreage maintenance

• Karaka location - convenience, schooling, and long-term value growth

The owners are ready to move - and this home is ready for its next chapter.

Act early, secure your private viewing, and experience Karaka lifestyle living without the workload.
