House hunters in Cordeaux Heights generally have a good pick of “nice, big character homes”, but a few things set 37 Derribong Drive apart from the rest, according to its selling agent.
Jason Betschwar of Betschwar & Co says a long list of drawcards starts with the home’s location tucked away on a private road and backing onto a stunning reserve.
“Sometimes you have to break out the cliches – because this place is a hidden gem,” he says.
The four-bedroom, three-bathroom home is set on a level 760-sqm block, offering a blending of functionality, timeless design and quality inclusions across two light-filled levels.
Upstairs, the stunning main bedroom retreat has its own chic ensuite, and opens via French doors to its own private balcony overlooking the nature reserve.
“One of the vendor’s favourite things to do was waking on the weekend to the sounds of birdsong from the reserve, and enjoying a cuppa on that balcony while they took it all in,” Jason says.
“The balcony overlooks both the pool and reserve so is a brilliant spot to read a book or relax while you watch the kids play in the pool or run around the yard below.”









All other bedrooms are well-appointed with built-in wardrobes and ceiling fans.
The heart of the home is the spacious, open-plan kitchen with gas cooking and a large pantry, dining and lounge area, which comes complete with a fireplace – the ideal setting to enjoy a beverage and a good book in the cooler seasons.
This opens seamlessly onto an expansive covered entertainment area, which in turn leads to one of the highlights of the home – a sparkling, north-facing saltwater pool overlooking the towering trees of the reserve and surrounded by decking.
“You can picture pool parties, family barbecues, long lunches and the celebration of all sorts of occasions in this space,” Jason says. “It’s one of the areas the vendors will miss most.”









The home’s aesthetic is characterised by features iconic to the late 80s and early 90s, such as rich brick and cedar window frames.
The same sort of cedar was used in the expansion to add the second floor in 2018, to tie the aesthetics together.
“Between the peace of the location and the look, you get some country vibes from this home,” Jason says.
Other useful features include a double-car garage with dual roller doors, ample storage and solar electricity.
The price guide on this property is $1.5 million.
“If you’re looking for a family home built for making memories, it doesn’t get better,” Jason says.
