An inviting north facing living room with ornamental fireplace opens through French doors to a lovely Art Deco balcony that catches the light and invites entertaining, while a separate dining room provides flexibility for gatherings. The kitchen is generous and perfectly finished with quality appliances including a dishwasher and ample storage.

Both double bedrooms are spacious, the main enjoying city glimpses and extensive built-in robes.
