Paying homage to its serene approximately two thirds of an acre setting where outstanding views unfurl towards the Silvan Reservoir, this inviting haven with views from every room has been designed with mid-century modernist principles to accentuate the natural beauty of its surrounding green wedge environment.

Polished timber floors flow under a canopy of freshly painted soaring 5m ceilings and lashings of natural light, where a chic kitchen renew features stainless-steel appliances and a fabulous breakfast bar for casual eats.

Two additional bedrooms (one double sized with views with plenty of room for a teenager's retreat) are serviced by a skylit family bathroom on the upper entrance level.
The terraced gardens undulate down to Woodhurst Grove and are awash with natives, grevillea, lush ferns and vibrant Japanese Maple. There's a flat space for a firepit where conversation will flow under starry skies and plenty of space to potter in the abundant sunshine.
