Internal ceilings clad with timber and exposed beams, parquetry timber floors and numerous custom fitted storage spaces throughout – the themed character is abundant throughout this naturally flowing 3 bedroom dwelling. Upon entering you’re immediately met with the open heart of the home – a generous main living space with slow combustion fireplace and sliding door access from the entry patio dressed with exquisite wisteria. Porthole windows in the kitchen and walkways overlook the lavish limestone paved alfresco beneath an extra high open-air pergola. The extravagance of this addition must be experienced to be truly respected! There’s room for a crowd or space to stretch out in comfort and style beside the sparkling blue 10.5mx4.5m below-ground swimming pool covered by industrial quality shade sails. Extending to a green and grassy, lazy look-out, considerately shaded by mature London plane trees – an established and fruitful orchard complements this outdoor oasis and offers up pears, plums, apples, apricots, almonds, mandarins, guava, lemons, mulberries and olives, surrounded by varieties of rare tropical clumping bamboo’s.
