The central lounge offers ample room to relax, with a timber-panelled feature wall and gas wall furnace providing a cosy ambience in the cooler months.

With plenty of room for family meals and casual entertaining, the kitchen truly feels like the social centre of the home.
The home also boasts a central, open home office or study and this space could also be reconfigured as a bedroom, if you desire.
The central bathroom includes a shower above the deep soaking bathtub and modern vanity, while the separate toilet and generous laundry, with double-door linen press, add to the home's practical appeal.
Every element has been designed with everyday ease in mind. Step outside and the lifestyle potential continues.
An expansive, covered timber deck overlooks the large, secure backyard, which is ideal for entertaining, children playing, or simply enjoying the outdoors.
A long side driveway provides access to a single stone garage with electric roller door, and there's an additional stone outbuilding at the rear, as well as greenhouses and a garden shed - perfect for gardening enthusiasts or those looking to cultivate a more self-sufficient lifestyle.
