Some of the additions to the property include a large 18 x 20-metre shed fitted with car hoists and the ultimate man cave with a bar, pool table and bathroom.
“It has an incredible shed with two hoists and has three four-metre electric doors, so any toy, boat or caravan could be stored in the shed,” she said.
Set back 110 metres from the road behind a gated entryway, the single-level house has five bedrooms, including a master suite with a walk-in robe and ensuite.
It has a large open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, a home theatre and a sun room.

A large alfresco space on the back of the house includes a covered entertaining area overlooking the in-ground swimming pool.
“The property has been meticulously cared for,” the agent said.
“It is beautifully private and charming on sought-after Casson Avenue and has a creek running through the property which the owners have improved with stunning landscaping.”
The property also includes fenced paddocks, multiple water tanks and a 19.8kW solar system.
Ms Fearon said the listing had drawn a high volume of interest since it hit the market on July 4, with 173 online enquiries and 36 groups through two open house inspections.
“Men are loving the shed,” she said.

“We have had interest from a few buyers locally and from Merewether and Sydney.
“People are realising it’s only 20 minutes from Merewether and the beach, four minutes to Warners Bay and two minutes to the lake and boat ramps.”
The property is open for inspection on Saturday, July 27 from 11am to 12pm.
