Set on a wide, elevated block, this inviting residence has a delightful street presence and offers a private lifestyle sanctuary in a premium, inner city location. Thoughtfully and comprehensively updated, the home exudes warmth and character, with a floor plan that's designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, complemented by easy care, low-maintenance gardens. On entry, a spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area seamlessly extends to the covered deck through large timber sliding doors, creating a beautiful connection between the interior and outdoor entertaining spaces. The gleaming kitchen has stone bench tops including a large island bench, stainless steel appliances and an abundance of clever storage, while an integrated BBQ area on the deck makes alfresco dining a breeze. The lower level offers exceptional flexibility, with a spacious casual living area or guest bedroom opening directly to the covered terrace, swimming pool and lawn. A separate multi-purpose room makes an ideal home gym, workshop or teen retreat.
