Polished timber floorboards and high ceilings create lovely light-filled spaces throughout with classic attributes from its original construction blending seamlessly with renovations necessary for 21st century lifestyle.
A flexible floorplan allows for a myriad of living configurations both upstairs and down. Forming the warm and inviting heart of the home, a large living space boasts mesmerising mountain views and abundant sunshine with a cosy fireplace.
Through double doors a formal dining setting with central wood heater nestled within the brick mantle is within easy reach of the kitchen, with dual access from the living space and the entranceway.

Cleverly designed for privacy, or as a guests' retreat, one of the home's multiple bedrooms is semi self-contained with a separate entrance, kitchenette and storage, built-in wardrobes and an en-suite with walk-in shower. Sumptuous accommodation continues on the ground floor with a generous bedroom with glorious mountain and garden views and built-in wardrobes and shelving. The renovated bathroom servicing this level contains an over-bath shower, toilet and a sink with stylish floor tiles underfoot.

Returning downstairs via the central, timber staircase, and outside, there are multiple areas to enjoy the sunshine and mountain views from the landscaped grounds. The covered paved patio offers space to entertain outdoors, and the lush, green lawns are encased by established trees, florals, and greenery.
At the front of the home, a lovely semi-circle garden features leafy trees and manicured hedges, with paths leading to the entrance and to the backyard. A small greenhouse is in-situ, cultivating fresh produce and a large storage shed is available for the ease of garden maintenance.
