7 Packsaddle Road, Marlow Lagoon

Stretch out in the hammock, cool off beneath the pool's waterfall or spend the afternoon tinkering in the shed-this is Territory living with room to enjoy it all.

Set on 6,190m� amongst established gardens, this elevated home offers a combination of privacy, character and space. A sweeping insulated timber veranda, substantial workshop and separate self-contained retreat create a property suited to family life, entertaining and weekends spent doing what you love.

More than 20 years of work by a horticulturist with experience at the Darwin Botanic Gardens has shaped the grounds into something special. A magnificent raintree shades the front of the home, while Darwin Woollybutt, rare cycads and predominantly native plantings create a leafy backdrop alive with visiting wildlife. Basalt boulders sourced from Mount Bundy add character, and a dedicated shade house provides a space for plant enthusiasts.

Established self-mulching garden beds and bore-fed irrigation through large sprinkler systems help make maintaining the grounds practical. You won't be spending your time maintaining but only watching nature take its habitation with water bills non-existent.

The home's elevated design makes the most of its surroundings. An insulated wraparound timber veranda overlooks the gardens and saltwater pool, with space for outdoor dining, a hammock and relaxed afternoons beneath the canopy. Downlights carry the entertaining into the evening. You will notice as soon as you enter the property the cooling temperature of the wonderful treetops.

Below, the 100,000-litre saltwater pool offers a refreshing escape, complete with a waterfall, expandable shade umbrella and fully fenced surrounds softened by lush greenery. It's a setting made for weekend gatherings and cooling off through the wet season.

The built-in lower level constructed only 6 years ago provides additional usable space with polished concrete floors keeping it cool all year round. The kitchen features gas cooking, a butler's pantry and ample cupboard storage. Internal stairs connect the levels, complemented by two external staircases, while surround sound in the lounge adds to the appeal of nights at home with the family.

Three generously sized bedrooms include built-in robes, while an open study offers flexibility and the potential to create a fourth bedroom. Two bathrooms include a renovated ensuite with dual shower heads, move in ready is the motto here.

The shed is a major drawcard for anyone with tools, vehicles or projects. Offering 180m� plus a further 59m� shade structure, it includes a car lift and office space with potential for cool-room conversion. There's room to pursue your hobbies and accommodate the caravan or weekend toys. The shelving is yours, ample room for all the tools to make anything and everything.

Separate from the main home, the self-contained retreat includes air conditioning, a bathroom and its own veranda-providing welcome independence for teenagers or a comfortable space for visiting family and guests.
