No detail has been overlooked nor expense spared. Electric front gates, lush grass, an aggregate driveway and the bold juxtaposition of the contemporary black extension against the white cottage will impress from the onset.
Of the original quarters, period elegance is celebrated; consider high ceilings, ornate ceiling roses, and the traditional open fire places that have been gifted with stunning marble mantles.
Natural timber floors connect old with new, a central hall first introducing three bedrooms and a large living space with study nook. The homes flows to an open plan kitchen/living area that embraces all of the natural light of its sun-drenched orientation.
Stunning black cabinetry is offset by the neolith stone benchtop in the sleek entertainer's kitchen, boasting an integrated bar, Fisher and Paykel appliances and wrap around island bench seating.
