The grand entrance features high ceilings, tall door frames, a statement chandelier, and a striking timber archway that sets an opulent yet earthy tone. At the heart of the home is a brand-new kitchen equipped with a 6-burner stovetop and oven, dishwasher, and a spacious butler's pantry. Soft, warm LED lighting adds atmosphere to both the kitchen and pantry. This space flows seamlessly into the inviting dining area and second living zone, where a beautifully crafted farmhouse-inspired storage seat complements both the dining table and the overhanging chandelier. Stackable doors open from this space onto a large entertaining deck, complete with an aluminium-framed pergola featuring manually adjustable shutters-perfect for year-round outdoor living. In the main living area, a panoramic feature window captures serene views of the nature-rich landscape, filling the home with light and tranquillity. Both living areas enjoy electric fireplaces, and a split-system ensures comfort in all seasons. New lighting and electrical upgrades have been carried out throughout the entire home. All bedrooms offer calming outlooks across the property and new linen blockout blinds. The master bedroom includes a walk-in robe, ensuite, and elegant pendant lights. Two additional bedrooms feature brand-new built-in wardrobes, while the fourth bedroom includes a freestanding wardrobe that can be moved to suit a variety of uses-ideal as a study, guest room, or third living space. Electrical fittings have also been prepared in two rooms for those wishing to add pendant lights. Both bathrooms deliver a luxurious retreat with underfloor heating, stunning rock-tiled feature walls, and a contemporary natural feel. The main bathroom also boasts a brand-new bathtub positioned to take in tranquil views of the surrounding landscape. The laundry has been designed with functionality in mind, featuring a concealed pull-out laundry hamper and an adjoining boot room with hooks for coats and bags, plus a built-in storage seat for shoes and everyday essentials.
