A massive upstairs sitting room-come-retreat looks down to the pool and yard, with folding doors revealing a fifth or “guest” bedroom that can also be utilised as another living space with built-in robes/storage and a private tree-lined balcony, directly opposite the main semi-ensuite bathroom, shared by a large third bedroom with its own walk-in robe.
