Step through the grand double doors into a formal foyer, where slate flooring sets the tone for authentic 70's style. To one side, a generously proportioned living area beckons, while on the other, a formal dining room and a well-appointed kitchen await.

The living room is an ode to relaxed sensibilities; it features a soaring raked ceiling adorned with exposed beams. Dual-aspect glazing fills the airy space with light and provides a view of the central atrium and the front garden. A slow-combustion fireplace and reverse-cycle air conditioning ensure year-round comfort, creating a harmonious blend of style and functionality.

The formal dining room, with windows looking onto the atrium, leads into the kitchen and breakfast nook overlooking the front garden and surrounding natural landscape. The kitchen has electric appliances and boasts a large built-in pantry and split system air conditioning.

A short flight of stairs leads from the living room to the main bedroom, a good-sized space looking onto the atrium with built-in storage and an ensuite with a shower, vanity and WC. The junior bedrooms, a study nook, and a family bathroom complete the bedroom zone layout. Both minor bedrooms have built-in storage and raked ceilings and benefit from a second slow-combustion fireplace. The flue of this second fireplace extends into the upstairs living area, a flexible area with multiple uses.

The spacious second-storey extension with north-facing windows, built-in cabinets, and a wet bar is an ideal family room, guest accommodation, or teens’ retreat. It is not impossible to see this space transformed into an indulgent parents’ retreat with enviable tree-top views.

The home is paved on all sides with a courtyard area to the southern side where you can settle in and enjoy the afternoon glow of the sun setting through the trees.
