Suburban Serenity on King Street

*UNDER CONTRACT*

Set on a generous 995m² section in Doyleston, this 105m² Signature home, built in 2000, has real substance behind it: three double bedrooms, a large separate studio an extra-large four-car garage, and the kind of warmth, privacy and practicality that’s getting harder to find in one place.

The living area is where this home settles in. Open plan and sun-filled, it brings the kitchen, dining and lounge together in a way that feels connected without losing its sense of calm. Fully tinted double glazing, a log burner and a heat pump keep things cosy through the colder months, while French doors open to the covered verandah and bbq area for easy dinners outside, a coffee in the morning, or family catch-ups that drift on a bit longer.

All three bedrooms are genuine doubles, giving you flexibility for family, guests or working from home. Two come with built-in wardrobes, while the main bedroom has French doors to the verandah and a large walk-in robe that adds a welcome touch of ease. The bathroom is well-sized with a separate bath and a shower with a dome, there’s a separate toilet for busy mornings, a separate laundry, and even a central vacuum system, which is a rare and genuinely useful detail.

Outside, the grounds feel established and nicely considered. There’s lawn for kids and pets, fruit trees and berry gardens for the home grower, a garden shed, and a private covered outdoor area that extends the home beautifully. Then there’s the separate lockable studio or hobby room on mains power, plus an extra-large garage with workbench, automatic door openers, and enough height for a campervan, motorhome or boat.

Doyleston has that small-settlement ease people move for, while still being connected to the wider Ellesmere area. The township sits on the main road between Christchurch and Leeston, and nearby Osborne Park offers playgrounds, tennis courts, a BMX track and picnic tables, while Leeston adds everyday services and Ellesmere College for years 7 to 13.
