Downstairs there is a further bedroom and a bedroom/study, a large rumpus room, laundry and full bathroom.

The property is approached by a long driveway, sloping gently up to a flat tarmac area large enough to turn and park a horse float plus several cars. The entrance is through the double garage, which has a walk-in storage cupboard, switchboard with generator input point and Fronius solar inverter. There are solar panels on the roof, split to face East and North. The front and back of the garage have roller doors so it can be opened up to allow access to the patio. There is also a separate side gate to the patio and pool area.

The door in to the house opens from the garage to an entrance hall with stairs ahead and a walk in storage cupboard underneath. To the left is bedroom 5, which has a low cupboard under the stairs and a split system AC unit. To the right is the study, which has a wall air conditioner unit. The hall extends to the right, past a large picture window facing the patio, to the generously proportioned rumpus room. This has 3 glass sliding doors (with insect screens) on to the poolside patio. The pool is fully fenced. The rumpus room has a split system air conditioner, large bar with fridge space and a dart board. A door leads into the study and at the opposite end, a further door leads into the laundry. This contains a double tub and is plumbed for a washing machine with ample room for a tumble dryer and other items as required. A cavity wall sliding door leads into the downstairs bathroom. This is fully tiled and has a wood vanity with granite top, large wood framed mirror, bath, toilet and walk in shower.

From the hallway a wooden staircase extends up to the second floor past a stained glass window. The stairs have a full turn to arrive at the landing adjacent to a large sunken lounge area. The lounge has two windows, ceiling fan and recently laid vinyl flooring. Ahead is the open plan dining area and kitchen, with a long hallway to the left. The hall and dining room have the original "herring bone" laid parquet flooring which has been restored and polished.

The dining area has a split system air conditioner, ceiling fan and multiple large windows and sliding patio doors to the wrap around deck. The kitchen has composite stone work surfaces, an induction hob, electric oven and subway tile splash backs. There is a dishwasher and space for a tall fridge. There are plenty of upper and lower cupboards and a large pantry, all finished with solid wood doors.

Following along the hallway, on the left is bedroom 4 (blue) and bedroom 3 (pink). These rooms are similar in size (would take double beds) with mirror image layouts. Each has built in wardrobes, ceiling fans and split system air conditioners. Both have laminate flooring. Further along the corridor, the hallway widens to the left, leading to bedroom 2, a smaller but still double bedroom. It has laminate flooring, built in wardrobe, ceiling fan and split system air conditioner. There is a door from the hall on to an outside back staircase which leads to the rear part of the garden. There is a bathroom to the right with a separate toilet. The bathroom is a demi en suite, with wooden vanity, large framed mirror and a double shower. It opens into the master bedroom, which has a built in wardrobe, patio door to the deck, ceiling fan and wall air conditioner. Outside the bedroom in the hallway is a large linen cupboard.

The outside area of the house has a patio and pool to the front and a large covered car port to the rear. A rear gate leads out on to a strip of land belonging to the property, previously known as Jones Road. There is a gate into the large paddock from behind the house. Down the driveway there are mature trees and a large grassy area leading to the tennis court. This has not been used in some time but could potentially be restored to a functional tennis court. A fenced are surrounds a duck pond and houses a chicken house.

Further down the driveway there is a stable with two sand loose boxes and a concrete feed storage area with a further concrete floor stable adjacent. There are several paddocks, the main one runs up the hill towards the house and there is a smaller paddock at the front towards the road. In between is a fenced area approx 20mx 40m suitable for riding or separating a small horse or pony. A metal fenced pen is situated to the side of the stable block, also useful for separating a horse temporarily. The paddocks have direct access to the stable and there are water troughs accessible to all outside areas. There is a bore to supply water for the horses.
