Discover the epitome of family living at 8 Keats Place, Melba. This custom-built, two-storey home boasts a thoughtfully designed floorplan that beautifully separates living areas from sleeping accommodations. Quality finishes and high ceilings enhance the spacious, light-filled living areas, including a separate lounge with stunning views to Mt Rogers and a large study equipped with custom joinery.
Energy efficiency was a major focus during the planning and construction of this home. It features maximum insulation throughout all external and internal walls, double insulation in all ceiling spaces, and double glazing on all windows and doors. The ground floor is built with brick cavity construction, while the first floor utilises a thermal facade foam system, providing year-round comfort by acting as a substantial insulation barrier against external elements. The home's N-NE aspect captures sunlight beautifully, significantly reducing the need for heating during the cooler months, and the extensive insulation helps keep the house cool during warmer months.
The open plan kitchen, meals, and family room is a culinary delight, featuring Bosch appliances throughout, dual electric ovens, an induction cooktop, dishwasher, stone benchtops, an island bench, a breakfast bar, and a butler's pantry with custom joinery. The master bedroom offers blockout blinds, a walk-in robe, and an ensuite with a large shower niche and floating vanity, all complemented by sweeping views. Three additional bedrooms come with built-in robes and ceiling fans, while the family bathroom provides both a separate bath and shower.
Practicality meets luxury with an additional upstairs toilet, downstairs powder room, and a well-appointed laundry room with external access. Enjoy year-round comfort with 3-phase, zoned ducted heating and cooling, and the convenience of double-glazed windows and doors. Security is paramount with a video intercom at the front door.
Outside, the large alfresco area is perfect for entertaining, featuring a custom concrete pool with an energy-efficient heat pump and glass fence, a wood-fired pizza oven, and a gas bayonet for a BBQ. The beautifully established gardens and fully landscaped grounds, including travertine pavers and sandstone retaining walls, create a serene and inviting atmosphere.
With a double garage offering ample storage and internal access, as well as a second driveway for additional off-street parking, this home is as functional as it is beautiful. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac at the base of Mt Rogers, the property is conveniently connected by walking paths to local parks, playgrounds, schools, and shops, with easy access to larger shopping precincts and major arterial roads. Make 8 Keats Place your family's new sanctuary.
