It features a large walk-in-robe and an ensuite with marble vanity, floating timber cabinetry, free-standing bath, separate shower and beautiful stained-glass feature window.
Two additional bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the central hall-way. They are both generously proportioned and feature oversized sash windows and built-in-robes. A family bathroom is located nearby which showcases a double vanity and separate bath and shower.
The grand hall leads to a very spacious, open-plan living, dining, kitchen and rear entertaining deck. Huge timber-framed sliding doors provide spectacular views of the city skyline and retract on two sides to create a seamless flow between the indoor and outdoor entertaining areas.
