8 Emerald Rise
Templestowe VIC 3106

Celebrating the notion of family and honouring the desirable northerly aspect, this architecturally designed house that speaks of "Home" offers a complete family lifestyle inside the coveted Serpell Primary School catchment area.

One step inside is all it takes for you to realise this sun-kissed four-bedroom home isn't just an exhibition of outstanding craftsmanship, meticulous presentation and seamless indoor-outdoor living; it actually transcends the materialism of bricks and mortar. This home has spirit and soul.

Intelligently designed with three living areas downstairs and three bedrooms upstairs configured to capture the beauty of the northerly light, the practical and flexible character of the home also extends to the low maintenance backyard, which boasts three usable areas (outdoor entertaining precinct with a modern L-shaped swimming pool, undercover sitting area with a built-in gas mains BBQ and undercover alfresco dining area, concreted basketball key for child's play at the rear and a west-facing side yard) to cater for every family member's needs.

On entry, be greeted by a stunning formal lounge and dining arrangement, which enjoys the prestige of being one of only two such settings to exist in the street, before arriving at a central open-plan informal living zone, where a showpiece granite kitchen instantly appeals with its walk-in pantry and impressive size and scale. A gas fireplace serves the more intimate zone of the living area, while a versatile rumpus (with wet bar) at the top of the layout lends itself well to a games retreat for the kids or potential media room for the whole family's enjoyment.

A private downstairs bedroom with access to a full bathroom delivers an excellent set-up for multi-generational living, while three North-facing bedrooms (Master with walk-in robe and ensuite), a bright family bathroom with elevated corner spa and generous study nook are zoned in privacy upstairs.

Beautifully maintained, this standout residence also features a double garage with internal access, larger than usual laundry (with chute), ducted heating, evaporative cooling, ducted vacuum, alarm and intercom.

Set in one of Templestowe's most exclusive addresses hallmarked by its secure aspect and strong community spirit, your family will also benefit from the seamless access to excellent public and private schools, The Pines Shopping Centre, bus services, scenic parks and the Eastern Freeway/Eastlink.
