The home has high ceilings and timber floors, a formal dining/living room, and lounge with open place fire and French doors to the veranda overlooking the pool and gardens.
The property is set on two levels. Downstairs are three bedrooms all with built-in robes, and one bathroom. Upstairs is a fourth large bedroom also with built-in robes, bathroom with shower, vanity and toilet, plus a substantial second living/rumpus area with magnificent views and a storage room. A sizeable laundry at ground level has additional storage for added convenience.
Other features include slow combustion heating located to service the entire house and large windows which allow for natural light.
A stand-alone building in the garden provides a perfect office/bedroom/playroom and is equipped with a split system heater / air conditioner.
