The striking façade of this home is immediately impressive with its ornate Edwardian character featuring a stunning bay window, classic verandah and captivating leadlight windows. On entry, the size and scale of the home is revealed, featuring soaring high pressed metal ceilings, original character fretwork, crisp white colour scheme and polished Baltic timber floors. The original quarters of the house have been respectfully updated, preserving the character and grandeur of its time. Two expansive rooms at the front of the home provide versatile spaces for living rooms, entertaining or could be used as a bedroom if required.

A central bathroom services this section and features a breathtaking combination of claw foot bath, lining boards, marble benchtops and feature mosaic tiles. The luxurious master bedroom offers a sizeable walk in robe and elegantly finished ensuite.
Entering the main living area, the transition into the extension of the home is seamless. The open plan kitchen, living and dining areas wrap around a spacious alfresco offering the perfect layout for everyday living and effortless entertaining.

This kitchen is an entertainer’s dream! Perfectly positioned to overlook the living and outdoors through striking steel framed windows, cooking will never be a chore in this home.
The rear of the house forms an additional wing including two bedrooms, both with built in robes and desks, a home office or study, laundry and yet another beautifully finished light-filled bathroom, the perfect retreat for kids, away from the main traffic of the home.
Outdoors, the north-facing back yard features a spectacular in-ground pool surrounded by landscaped gardens. The al fresco is equipped with an outdoor kitchen and has direct access to its own powder room. Every need has been catered for in this thoughtful design.
