Perched on a secluded elevated site and surrounded by established gardens, this charming homestead boasts a single-level dwelling (250 sq m approx) with a rich history dating back to the mid-century. Meticulously enhanced, including a renovation led by Clarkson Architects, this residence offers timeless appeal.

A central hub of this family abode is the open-concept kitchen and dining area, exuding sophistication with top-notch finishes and contemporary conveniences, including a scullery.

Sleeping arrangements comprise a single bedroom (currently purposed as an office) and three generous double bedrooms, with the master bedroom standing out for its impressive size. Complementing these quarters are two well-appointed bathrooms, a separate laundry area, and a double integral garage.

Additionally, an autonomous one-bedroom cottage (54 sq m approx) with sleek polished concrete floors is present, offering possibilities like home and income potential, hosting extended family, or functioning as an art studio, as currently utilized. Surrounding the residence, exquisite country gardens encompass vast lawns and an asphalt tennis court (in need of maintenance).
