Entertainer’s haven: 90 Ribblesdale Avenue, Wyndham Vale, 3024

By Jenan Taylor

Perched just across from Wyndham Vale Primary School, this delightful eight-year-old house has a neatly landscaped garden, comprising a series of decked stairs and landings, and a cream-and-grey rendered facade.

The palette beyond the glass-panelled front door remains neutral through crisp white walls and light-coloured floor coverings.

Polished floorboards lead to an open-plan family and meals area. Enhanced with vaulted ceilings, high windows and glass sliders that pull in the light, this space is arranged around a large modern kitchen. White subway tiles line the walls from splashback to ceiling, complementing the stainless-steel appliances and stone benchtops. Chic pendant lights grace the island breakfast bar and its extension.

A lounge room adjoins this space. It has plush, grey-toned carpets, built-in floating shelves and a glass slider that leads out to a paved pathway, smooth lawns and the established shrubs of the backyard.

The concrete path wraps around the building to an extensive and beautifully decked pergola sitting just outside the family room. This is an outdoor space for serious entertainers. The plethora of overhead lights rimming its canopy will illuminate formal or casual get-togethers with family and guests throughout the year, while tall Colorbond fencing keeps gatherings private. The tiered deck leads up and into the double garage through a discreet and secure back door.

Back inside, the main bedroom has a large walk-in robe and views of the front. Its en suite shower is smartly fitted out with grey tiles and the sandy-toned vanity is topped with dual above-counter basins.

The other three bedrooms have built-in robes and share a stylish central bathroom. Many of the features of the en suite are repeated here, with the charcoal tiles encircling a large bath.

The house has ceiling fans in the living area and some of the bedrooms, while cooling, ducted heating and contemporary dressings at the windows up the level of comfort.

In addition to the primary school across the road, the dwelling is at close quarters to many other colleges and schools, while shopping precincts and Wyndham Vale
train station are less than four kilometres away.
