The heart of the property is the kitchen and family living area, where natural light floods in through large windows, creating a bright and inviting space for entertaining or relaxing with loved ones. There is also a separate formal lounge, providing versatility for your family's needs.
The property boasts four bedrooms over two levels, and with two full bathrooms, morning routines will be a breeze. With almost 300sqm of liveable area, two studies or hobby rooms and oodles of storage, this super-sized home will see your family through until the kids leave home.
Outside you'll find yourself surrounded by lush greenery and abundant birdlife, the city seemingly miles away. Lovingly established over the course of several decades, the grounds are quite spectacular.
