home . at watson 22 McCawley Street Watson will leave you wishing every day was Saturday. You realise the full potential of this beautiful family home after spending a Saturday here.The day begins at sunrise, a brisk walk up Mt Majura, a spectacular view point to catch a glimpse of the waking city as the day begins. Grabbing an essential coffee from The Knox on the way home, the local Watson shops are buzzing, a hive of activity as the local community hub. With shopping bags in hand, a quick bike ride to meet friends at EPIC delivers a favourite activity of the day, the weekly shop at The Farmers Markets to source fresh seasonal local produce. The ingredients gathered for breakfast and lunch, its home again to fully enjoy the delights of the property and just sit! The north facing lounge and alfresco decking beautiful spots to lazily soak up the gorgeous garden surrounds, watch the kids play, entertain friends, enjoy meals and be together.The lifestyle this home offers is precious. It is hard to conceive this home is only ten minutes from the city, you feel as if you live in a country town. Watson is a suburb that proudly fosters community, celebrates local producers and shop owners, connects with nature and gives you room to breathe.The favourite room for me is the kitchen. I can imagine being perched on a tall stool watching the family activities in the adjoining living areas, chatting as the meal is being prepared, signing the school notes, make the lunches, the kitchen the control centre of the home. Double length windows give a wonderful view of the leafy gardens and street scape, lets light flood in and give a sense of space. Watching the children play in the climbing tree, ride their bikes to the park and school, and see the comings and goings of the street adds to the strong feeling of community.The flexible floor plan will resonate with families offering three bedrooms with an additional two bedroom separately metered unit upstairs. I can imagine the possibilities this may offer; potentially working from home, an income stream renting the unit, welcome accommodation for visitors and extended family members or just catering for all the space modern families require.After spending one wonderful Saturday here, I know you will be wishing you could spend every day in 22 McCawley Street.Features Living area 192m Block size 727m Flexible floor plan, possible configurations offering a five-bedroom home, four bedrooms plus study, or three-bedroom home with two-bedroom separate unit Separately metred two-bedroom unit upstairs can be rented out for potentially $350 per week, separate side access.
