Only a short walk from parkland and Mt Painter Nature Reserve in the sought-after suburb of Cook, this much-cherished home lies tucked away behind a tapestry of blooming gardens, perfectly blending peaceful surrounds with urban convenience.

Timeless elegance welcomes you, with exquisite timber detailing adding vintage charm and warmth to this impeccably presented home.

The understated charm extends across the four bedrooms and study, the main bedroom featuring an ensuite and delightful bay window with plantation shutters - a sunny nook perfect for savouring a coffee and a good book.
