Cleverly designed, the home is big on space and has zoned living so everyone can spread out and do their own thing yet congregate for downtime or meals in the open plan living domain.

When it’s time to retire, the master bedroom is a true retreat, complete with a lavish walk-in robe and ensuite, whilst the remaining three bedrooms (two with built ins) are serviced by a well-appointed family bathroom with bath and shower.
Outside, the private established gardens offer a serene setting for relaxation and outdoor dining with the abundance of mature greenery creating a tranquil oasis perfect for children and pets to play and for green thumbs to relish. A paved area is ideal for firing up the barbeque on a weekend or simply enjoying the peaceful setting accompanied by birdsong.
Ample shedding and an oversized double garage add further appeal for tradies, hobbyists or home tinkerers and there is so much parking in the long driveway you could fit a bus or two!
