Behind its white picket fence and lavender hedge is this truly 'one of a kind' family home. This two-storey home has been completely rebuilt from the ground up and is of generous size and quality. It has been meticulously designed, with an expansive floorplan and showcases beautiful character features throughout. 

Boasting three-metre-high ceilings, Baltic pine timber flooring and double-glazed windows. From its upstairs hidden playground to the three-storey treehouse, this wonderful home is fun-packed and is the perfect place to raise a family. 

Featuring an impressive steel spiral staircase which leads upstairs to a large open plan living space with vaulted ceiling and an abundance of natural light, a fully equipped kitchen with a Falcon freestanding induction oven and rangehood, a double farmhouse sink, a large concrete island bench with additional sink and even a hidden playroom for the kids.  The balcony with its built-in seating and perspex roof is an ideal place to retreat to with the wonderful overhanging oak tree and outlook. A staircase also leads down to the backyard below. 

The main bedroom is luxurious with large windows overlooking the rear yard, balcony access, a walk-in robe and ensuite with double vanity and double shower. Two further bedrooms both include walk-in robes and are serviced by a family bathroom with freestanding bath, perspex roof and infrared heating.
