Views in every direction and high end finishes

While Marburg is at the smaller end of the housing supply market, the 18 homes sold in the last 12 months indicated around a 13 percent increase in the median price compared to the previous year.

And a home sold in Seminary Road in mid-November is likely to further support the upward trend.

The five bedroom home set on a 2ha block with views in every direction, features resort style outdoor living and large interior rooms.

The home has an open plan kitchen, dining and living area with easy access to the family zones.

Added extras include plantation shutters, Jatoba timber flooring, bespoke kitchen cabinetry and a freestanding fireplace as well as six reverse-cycle air conditioners.

The master suite comes with a spa, dual vanities and large walk-in robe. There is a large multipurpose room with external access provides options for a fifth bedroom, dual-living potential or continuation as a home business space as there is also a separate office.

Outdoors is also set to impress as there is a 100,000 litre in-ground pool with a spa bench, swim up bar and Bali hut overlooking landscaped gardens.

The fully insulated shed has epoxy flooring and extra-high roller doors is complemented by a double carport and large bitumen hardstand.

Other infrastructure includes 5kW solar power, CCTV security and fenced paddocks.

The property also has dual access.

The home sold for $2.1 million in mid-November.
