Surrounded by stunning, well established gardens, this 1200m2 block is secluded by hedges and pencil pines. It comes to life in the spring with the emergence of roses, a magnificent peony tree, rhododendron and camellias. Purple and white wisteria blossoms cascade over the trellis that leads into the front garden. Autumn brings out the burgundy of the Japanese maple, ornamental grape and the golden leaves on the silver birches.

There is level access from the garage into the house which makes it easy for all to visit. The studio/man-cave is great for privacy and could be transformed into a third bedroom. The master and guest bedrooms are also fitted with plantain shutters and built-in wardrobes.

The lounge room offers a warm and inviting ambiance, kept cosy by a natural gas log fireplace. Tassie oak timbers cover the dining room floor and polished granite encases the kitchen benches. Walk through French doors onto a beautiful circular Juliet balcony and enjoy breakfast with the birds.
