Despite the homes inner-city location, privacy has been achieved wonderfully. 

This lovely brick home sits privately behind a hedge and the street presence belies the size of the house and the block.

Situated on over 1050 m2 block of land, the home offers five very generous bedrooms; the master with a walk-in-wardrobe and a beautifully appointed en suite with double shower and double vanity.

The home has ducted central heating and the second living room has a wood heater and fabulous built in storage.

The wide central hallway leads to the stunning modern open plan living area, which is the hub of the home and is complete with gorgeous white kitchen with an enormous Caesar stone island bench with room to seat the whole family.

With high ceilings and double glazing throughout this area, this is a superb living space; corner bi-fold doors open from the dining area onto a deck, creating an amazing indoor/ outdoor entertaining area.

The deck overlooks the landscaped rear gardens, where box hedges separate the formal garden area from the rear section where there is room for a cubby house, veggie garden beds and even a run for chickens.

There is a double garage underneath the home, with a separate lockup storage room for bikes etc, solar panels and the electric gates provide extra security and privacy.
