Privately elevated behind a deep setback with established natives and a curved driveway, the home unfolds in a rectangular form poised above a 3-car carport adjoining an impressive under-house store/workshop through to a cellar store.

The hallway is bookended by an oversized grand master comprising a gorgeous WIR and ensuite with a jade herringbone tiled floor, small mosaic tiles, single vanity, shower and WC.  The other three bedrooms have a dollhouse-like quality, each crafted with original inbuilt BIR’s, desks and cabinetry, capturing sun-filled unimpeded garden aspects. Adjacent is a main bathroom comprising stunning Italian-style tiled flooring, single vanity, bath, shower and separate WC.

Full of character and central to the home, open-plan living and dining is outward looking with floor-to-ceiling windows. The fully equipped updated timber kitchen features tiled splashbacks and impressive freestanding oven with electric cooktop overlooking a meals area with sliding doors opening to a privately set back verandah.  

A beautifully curated lounge with timber walls creates a charming backdrop for your ‘happy hour’ at home.  Serve an iconic Manhattan or Old-Fashioned cocktail at your next 60’s summer party.
