Beyond a traditional verandah and arched hallway entry, discover a flexible floorplan highlighted by a formal living room with bench seating placed underneath bay windows in the all-day warmth of northern light. A second formal room is versatile in nature with the potential to use as a dining, music or sitting room framed by a working open fireplace.

Exemplary rest and retreat is staged on both levels with the luxurious main bedroom nestled on the ground floor enjoying roomy walk-in robes and a private ensuite. Another downstairs bedroom could be refashioned as a home office, serviced by a sumptuous bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiles, a freestanding bath and walk-in rainfall shower.
The remaining trio of robed and air-conditioned bedrooms are all posted upstairs alongside a deluxe bathroom with a bath. Further to this, the front bedroom is graced with a private undercover balcony overlooking the street below through leafy treetops. A nearby teen retreat and study area with an integrated desk are both drenched in natural light, perfect to slip away for some quiet time.
Thoughtfully renovated throughout, a comprehensive list of features includes a large laundry, extensive heating/cooling, storage solutions, plantation shutters, double roller blinds and auto-gated entry to off-street parking for up to 4 cars.
