Space, Privacy & Family Living! Set well back from the main road down a family friendly ROW is this substantial brick family home. Offering the space, privacy and peace of mind that families with young children will love!

Positioned on a generous 624m² section with an elevated outlook towards the Bombay Hills, this beautifully presented home provides a fantastic setting for family living. Tucked away from passing traffic, its private position is a real standout, offering a sense of security and separation from the road that's particularly appealing for those with little ones.

At the heart of the home is a spacious, well-appointed kitchen featuring an impressive island bench and a separate scullery. The open-plan living and dining area flows effortlessly through wide stacker ranch sliders onto a private, north-facing patio – perfect for summer barbecues, entertaining friends or simply relaxing while the children play.

Four generous double bedrooms provide plenty of room for the whole family, complemented by two bathrooms, including a master ensuite. A spacious separate lounge offers that all-important second living area, ideal for family movie nights, a children's retreat or simply somewhere to escape.

The double internal-access garage is complemented by off-street parking for up to three additional vehicles, providing plenty of room for visitors and all the family extras.

Enjoying a peaceful, tucked-away position while remaining close to Pokeno's amenities and just minutes from the motorway, this home delivers the perfect balance of privacy, practicality and convenience.

We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales and its own last sale have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Unclaimed
Nobody is tracking this property yet

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.

Free. Takes about a minute.

We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What claiming gets you
1One live recordCouncil valuation, title details and registered interests, kept current rather than gathered again every time you need them.
2Your lending in the pictureAdd what you owe, or connect the bank, and the equity and LVR stop being a calculation you redo by hand.
3Providers compete for itPut the mortgage, the insurance and the power out to people who want the business — on your terms, when you ask.
4Everything else you ownOne search finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of.

Zoning and hazards

What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.

Reading the council's maps…

What could you build here?

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
