The adjoining upper level kitchen has been given a modern makeover with granite benchtops, European appliances and ample cabinetry and storage space.

Four large downstairs bedrooms all feature plantation shutters and built in robes, opening out onto the lower-level garden with three bathrooms featuring mosaic tiling.
