The gleaming, central stone country-style kitchen is well equipped with a Bosch convection oven, Blanco gas cook top and Westinghouse dishwasher, and features a walk-in pantry, while a large laundry/utility room with plenty of storage cabinetry adds to the amenity and functionality. Newly laid wool loop pile carpets adorn the three robed bedrooms, all with lovely garden vistas, including the main with a walk-in robe and a luxe shower ensuite, which matches the stunning main bathroom fit-out with floor-to-ceiling tiling, brushed brass tapware, a fluted timber vanity, walk-in shower and built-in back-to-corner freestanding bath.
