The kitchen is further enhanced by quality cabinetry and first class European appliances, including Bosch induction cooktop and 90 cm oven. The kitchen flows to a casual multi-purpose family living area, that opens up through double sliding doors to the expansive paved entertaining area, overlooking private, established, easy-care gardens.
The generous proportions of the bedrooms set this home apart and all connect to the beautiful gardens. The luxurious, segregated master suite features high ceilings, massive walk-in robe and a sumptuous ensuite with a unique, extra length, deep bath. Both the ensuite and main bathroom offer high quality finishes, floor to ceiling tiles and separate showers with multi-function handheld showers as well as deluxe rainfall shower heads.
