The large, low-maintenance back garden is paved with red-bricks, and is home to established fruit and olive trees, a towering palm tree and a tall hedge for privacy. Tucked away at the back of the garden oasis is a studio space, perfect for working from home. Storage has been carefully considered in the renovation, with two of the three generous bedrooms equipped with large built-in robes, and storage space in the attic. Stunning period features have been retained, with an incredible leadlight front door, cornices, ceiling roses and a decorative fireplace in the third bedroom serving as reminders of this home’s rich history. With a separate laundry, family bathroom and separate toilet, and a door at the end of the impressive hallway to separate the bedrooms from the rest of the house, this home’s layout is perfect for family life.
