Four substantial bedrooms branch off the central arched hallway. The primary suite, located at the front of the home, benefits from soft light through its double aspect, and the walk-in dressing room is spacious and luxurious. The modern, sleek ensuite is beautifully designed with floor-to-ceiling tiles, a heated towel rail, and plantation shutters. A guest or second bedroom enjoys front-garden views and features a custom-built-in robe and a working corner fireplace.

Further along the hall, old meets new in a striking glass-encased wine room - a true conversation piece. Adjacent to the central living or dining room is a spacious area, accessed via the classic side porch framed by colourful leadlight windows. Here, the timber mantel and open fireplace take centre stage in this elegant, more formal living space.

Two additional bedrooms, both with built-in robes, enjoy their own wing and share the modern family bathroom. A floating vanity, freestanding bath, frameless shower, and heated towel rails add to the elegance and luxury of the home.

Opening in spectacular style, the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas enjoy a lush green backdrop framed by wall-to-wall windows, revealing an ever-changing canvas of the botanical rear garden. The living room is warmed by a gas fire in winter, while bi-fold French doors fold back in the warmer months for seamless integration with the undercover alfresco entertaining area.

An impressive front and back kitchen caters to the discerning cook, featuring extra-thick stone benchtops paired with 2-pak cabinetry. You'll love the European appliances, including a Gaggenau double wall oven, a De'Longhi built-in coffee machine, a Siemens induction cooktop, and a Miele dishwasher. Behind it, a dedicated chef's zone includes a butler's pantry, an appliance cupboard, a generous preparation area, and a cleverly integrated laundry with ample storage.

The central stone-topped island forms a natural anchor for entertaining - a place where family and friends gather while meals are prepared and conversations flow.

Overlooking the glass-fenced in-ground pool, the oversized alfresco area provides all-weather comfort with ceiling fans, heaters, built-in speakers, and TV provisions. The adjoining side verandah, connecting the carport to the kitchen, features a built-in BBQ, a bar fridge, a range hood, storage, and a stone-topped preparation bench.

With ample space for cricket or football, the expansive lawns are sure to be envied by friends. The pool house offers endless entertainment options for the family, featuring a projector, pool table and four cinema lounges. The bar, seating area, and verandah make the perfect spot for friends to gather and enjoy themselves without disturbing the occupants of the main house. Next to the pool house is a shed and an undercover storage area, adding further practicality to this impressive outdoor space.

An incredible, private oasis has been created and curated by the current owners and family for the past 20 years - their love and care are evident in the home they have made.
