Stepping outside, the home continues to impress with a secure, fenced yard offering ample space for children and pets to play safely, all while enjoying scenic, elevated views.
Beneath the home is a practical storage area accessible via a roller door, ideal for tools or outdoor equipment. A two-car garage shed provides further options for vehicle storage or a workshop. Water supply is taken care of with an 80,000-litre tank, supporting the property’s self-sufficiency.
Adding to its appeal, the property includes a council permit to operate a business from home. The approved hours of operation extend from 6:30am to 5:00pm on weekdays and 8:00am to 1:00pm on Saturdays, with a separate crossover and ample off-street parking ensuring a clear division between work and family life.
