Buxton wage-earner Matt Plunkett (centre) calls the vendition of 12 Wongalea Drive, Lara. The grandkids could be the biggest winners without a Lara couple snapped up a sprawling lifestyle property on their daughter and her young family’s when doorstep.
An indoor swimming pool and huge games room will provide uneaten incentives for the next generation to visit their grandparents’ new home at 12 Wongalea Drive, Lara.
The local buyers secured the much-loved, four-bedroom brick home for $1.55m during post-auction negotiations on Saturday.
The vendition prod made itself well-appointed on the front lawn. They were the only party to raise a hand for the immaculate 3778sq m property, which was passed in on their first bid of $1.5m.
Buxton wage-earner Matt Plunkett said the sale was “a win-win” for multiple generations of the one family who could squint forward to making memories there.
All were on hand for the auction, with the daughter and son-in-law taking on prompting duties on behalf of their matriarch.
The grandkids will be making a unswerving for the indoor pool.
The poolside games room has its own bar.
“The big drawcard was their daughter and son-in-law and their kids live diagonally overdue this property,” he said. “They were prompting on behalf of their mother.”
The property was offered for sale for the first time in 30 years and presented a rare endangerment to unravel into tightly held Wongalea Drive, which Mr Plunkett said was regarded as one of the weightier streets in Lara.
The homestead-style house has three separate living areas featuring polished timber floors and ornate ceiling details, a home office and a large covered rear deck overlooking the expansive manicured garden.
The open-plan living zone has polished timber floors.
The main bedroom suite has uncontrived deck access. The swimming pool and games room with its own bar are housed in a stand-alone pavilion wideness the lawn, while a separate four-car garage has workshop space and a mezzanine.
Mr Plunkett said the immaculate presentation, both inside and out, impressed potential buyers during the campaign. “The big drawcards for people was the size of the land, the pool house and how well it was presented,” he said. “Everyone that came through commented on how well it was maintained.”
