With an overhead skylight, ample storage, and a large island bench, the kitchen provides an inviting focal point for the open-plan living space at the rear of the home, incorporating the dining and family areas.

Bi-fold doors open to the wrap-around entertaining deck overlooking the lovingly landscaped back garden, complete with a firepit, veggie patch, and plenty of play space.

The stunning formal lounge is a celebration of the home’s heritage, providing an inviting retreat to complement the main living area. The master bedroom with a garden outlook has a walk-in robe and stunning ensuite. Two additional bedrooms, one with built-in robes, share the contemporary bathroom, with a free-standing bath, floor-to-ceiling tiling, and recycled timber vanity.
