The street level entry with portico directly accesses the upper floor of this superb home. A wide hallway, perfect for treasured artworks and photographs, leads you to the vast living-dining area that extends across the full width of the rear of the house, highlighting the magnificent views from this elevated position. This area features high vaulted ceilings, beautiful timber flooring and two sets of floor-to-ceiling doors that slide away to access the wide covered alfresco deck and let in sunlight and fresh air.
Taking pride of place in this area is the beautifully designed open kitchen - a cook's delight featuring custom joinery with soft close drawers, plenty of preparation space and gleaming stainless steel appliances including gas cooktop, electric underbench oven and designer rangehood.
Adjoining the kitchen is a large butler's pantry with more storage and bench space, stainless steel dishwasher and room for a large refrigerator. The laundry/storeroom is also immediately adjacent to the kitchen, and includes a front loading washing machine.
Also on this level are two large east-facing bedrooms, both with ceiling fans and a wall of built-in robes, and a huge bathroom featuring custom joinery, large format tiling, heated towel rail, twin vanity basins, spa bath, separate shower and toilet.
Third bedroom/office has a 'picture window' opening to the living area.
Downstairs is entirely devoted to an expansive master bedroom suite with its own wide covered deck and plenty of room for sofa and TV. The walk-through wardrobe has double hanging space and custom made drawers, while the luxury ensuite bathroom features a double shower, heated towel rail, twin vanity basins and toilet.
