Privately ensconced behind imposing iron gates and breathtaking century old gardens that encase a regal circular drive, this sophisticated hills sanctuary circa 1940 spans 1.5 acres and is defined by an enchanting blend of heritage style and traditional charms with a totally captivating American Colonial inspired façade. Engaging indoor and outdoor living spaces allow you to experience the very best of every season seemingly in a world of your own, from staying warm in the cosy lounge by the fireplace, to making the most of the sunshine on the eastern terrace. Multigenerational families or BnB aspirants will also appreciate the two bedrooms with ensuites that adds lifestyle flexibility.
Instantly inviting, the home enchants at every charismatic turn with dado panelling, polished floorboards, large sash windows with pelmets all adding to the allure.
Downtime can be enjoyed fireside in the welcoming lounge whilst an adjacent home office or fourth bedroom with built-in cabinetry is adorned with ornate window shutters and a fireplace encouraging you to curl up with your favourite book.

A marble family bathroom complements with shower over bath.
