8 Gemas Street, Holsworthy, NSW 2173

Most homes with this much space in Holsworthy spread themselves across two levels. 8 Gemas Street does it all on one. Custom-built in 2009 and held by its original owners ever since, the home occupies 626sqm and remains one of the largest single-storey residences we have seen in the suburb.

The scale is apparent from the wide double-door entry, with 2.7m ceilings and porcelain-tiled floors carrying through an expansive collection of living spaces. There are two substantial everyday living areas, an oversized theatre room that feels like a genuine destination of its own, and a large home office. The natural granite kitchen is equally well considered, featuring 40mm benchtops, a 900mm gas cooktop and oven, with a central position connecting easily to the surrounding living zones. All four bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, while the master takes storage considerably further with two walk-in robes, a large additional built-in wardrobe and its own ensuite.

Outside, the home offers two distinct places to entertain: a sheltered side alfresco and a second alfresco opening directly from the rear living room. An extra-long double garage provides further usable space, while three-zone ducted air conditioning, a 6.6kw solar system, a security alarm and four security cameras add the practical comforts expected of a home designed for long-term family life.

All of this sits within a quiet Holsworthy cul-de-sac, close to both St Christopher's Catholic Primary School and Holsworthy Public School. For buyers wanting the proportions of a much larger home without stairs or a second storey, this is a floorplan-and a footprint-that will be difficult to find again.
