You’ll have plenty of space for a big family dining table, while French doors opening to the brick-paved alfresco patio ensure effortless outdoor entertaining. The separate living room is a sun-drenched oasis of calm and relaxation kept comfortable by a cosy wood fire and split-system heating/cooling. This instantly inviting space also offers free-flowing access to the patio and the leafy, low-maintenance backyard beyond, where abundant citrus trees are joined by grape vines and established garden beds bursting with colours.

The free-standing studio will delight those with hobbies, while excellent storage, ducted heating and gated driveway parking add extra appeal to this fabulous home.
