#soldbyash #soldbysally $1,780,000The home unfolds to the north, where a glorious family hub beckons, warmed by the radiant glow of a slow combustion fireplace.

Both bathrooms are concordantly finished in elegant kit-kat tiling with feature floating vanities, rain showers and brushed brass fixtures.The garden is curated to provide a variety of alfresco and special experiences - timber decking wraps around the house, a bridge floats you above a garden of natives, and there is the ease of an automated shade for dining alfresco during the hotter months.
