A character home with a quirky appeal, this three-bedroom, one-bathroom home welcomes you from the front verandah into a traditional hallway showcasing beautiful timber flooring underfoot. Positioned on either side of the hallway are two bedrooms, both featuring elegant French doors that enhance the home's charm.
Further along, the living room is filled with natural light and features a fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming space to relax. French doors open to allow an abundance of sunlight and fresh air, while the third bedroom is conveniently positioned nearby.
At the rear of the home, the kitchen and dining area form the heart of the residence. Bathed in natural light from an abundance of windows, this space enjoys an almost atrium-like feel while overlooking the backyard and revealing a delightful surprise, a below-ground swimming pool.
The bathroom is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen, while the laundry is neatly concealed behind concertina doors, maximising functionality and space.
Step outside to an elevated decked patio where you can relax amongst the treetops and enjoy views across the backyard and sparkling pool below - the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends or simply unwinding in complete privacy.
