Blissfully located just a short walk to Rye Yacht Club, this picture-perfect, Cape Cod-inspired four-bedroom weatherboard home is luxuriously appointed and set on almost half an acre (1,749 sqm approx.) of outstanding gardens, complemented by an expansive covered alfresco deck, swimming pool, and kids play paradise.

Built over two levels, the light-filled formal and informal living areas are enhanced by polished hardwood flooring, soaring vaulted ceilings and clerestory windows. The gleaming central kitchen has a central island bench and is fitted with quality stainless steel Euro appliances including a double oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher, and wine fridge.

The main upper level has lovely tree-top neighbourhood views from the landing, and features two good-sized bedrooms with built-in cupboards, attic windows and sloped ceilings. There is also a white-tiled bathroom with a blonde timber vanity and walk-in shower. The fourth bedroom, or study/home office, is located above the double garage and has its own internal staircase access and would be ideal for teenager or guest accommodation.
