A secluded residence due to the electric gates and formal hedging, the home is surrounded by established manicured flowering gardens which provide a lovely year round outlook from various outdoor entertaining areas including 2 decks and a terrace. The 1,339 sqm (approx.) block provides beautiful, private outdoor areas with the benefit of a premium location without onerous garden maintenance.

The open plan living area comprises a modern kitchen with Caesar stone benches, Ilve upright stove, custom joinery and extensive storage. The kitchen is complemented by a north facing living area which has bi-fold doors extending to the private rear deck with mature low maintenance hedges and flowering garden. A meals area completes this living space, again with bi-fold doors opening to a deck which captures the morning sun.
The second living area was designed as a more formal space with the lounge room featuring an Escea gas fireplace and adjacent dining room. For families looking for more flexible spaces, this area has been used as a home theatre and pool room providing great flexibility to meet your needs.
The segregated main bedroom is generous in size, with a leafy, north facing outlook.
