Owners Notes
What we love about this home
We had the opportunity to build exactly what we wanted, so of course we love it. The kitchen is great when entertaining, the spotted gum has a lovely natural feel, and we always see something new when looking at the granite from different angles. The big windows flood the house with light, so we rarely use any lighting during the day or early evening. We call our main balcony the sunset balcony, as it’s great for watching the weather change across Ivanhoe. The house sits on a prominent corner, and people remember it.
What we love about this suburb
We love seeing our neighbours out for walks with their families and dogs, and we’ve always felt safe walking around our neighbourhood. We often find ourselves walking to the station with the same neighbours which is nice. The Ivanhoe Aquatic Centre is close, with the gym and swimming pool both recently upgraded. We’re also sandwiched between two large shopping strips so we’re spoilt for choice when going out for dinner. We’re also close to a few hospitals, so we feel very secure that help isn’t far away for our young children, or our own specialist appointments.
Why we are selling
We built this house and enjoyed the process. Now that the kids have grown a little we’ve got itchy feet and decided to find another project. We fell in love with a renovators delight that should keep us happy for the next few years.
