It features superb garden and bushland views which can be enjoyed from every room. A parquetry floor breeze way entry leads through to a formal lounge and dining room which are sizeable spaces suited for all types of living, while timber floors run through a separate sun-filled family room.The large kitchen and meals area is soaked in natural light and away from the living zones there is the split level sleeping section of the home which consists of 3 bedrooms all with built-in robes as well as a bathroom and separate rooms for a shower and toilet.
