Of note is the meticulously crafted kitchen joinery, utilising hand-selected mountain ash and karri.

French doors open up to the outdoor entertaining area and manicured gardens.Stunning in architectural design the richly detailed living areas include beautifuly patterned parquetry flooring and magnificent vault like ceilings featuring exposed roof trusses of reclaimed native Australian hardwood creating a unique, light filled space.
