Off the dining room you have a private balcony overlooking the salt water in-ground pool and leafy nature reserve which forms part of Sparkes Hill Reservoir. A quiet and tranquil place for you to have your morning coffee.
Downstairs you will find the laundry, garage and an additional toilet and shower which is an added bonus when entertaining around the pool. There's a kitchenette waiting to be upgraded together with a rumpus room for the children or perhaps a 'work from home' space.
This north-east facing property receives the afternoon easterly breezes and the Kedron Brook is at the end of the street. Take an early morning walk through the Brook and pick up a coffee at Q Roasters! Weekends can be spent strolling down to Grinstead Park for the children to play on the fort.
