The second principal bedroom on the first floor is spacious and undeniably impeccable offering a versatile option for a family. Currently the dressing area is situated in the eaves but the current owners have options to install built in wardrobes in this area to compliment the two freestanding closets. This is a room for savouring a Sunday morning coffee in bed while sunlight reflects on the white walls and grey paneling. An ideal nook for a dressing table and displaying cherished items sits under a second window.

The magnificent ensuite bathroom is like something out of a lifestyle magazine with inky blue and white colour tones. The stunning oval freestanding bath is for uninterrupted sumptuous bathing in the peace and quiet and unparalleled in timeless design. Complimented by a luxury deck mounted sink and minimalistic wall mounted taps. The built-in star tiled shelf is just waiting for all your opulent soaps and candles.

The two bathrooms share a contemporary washroom with rainfall shower and matching vanity area with toilet. The gentle, wide water dispersal is lovely for waking up before school and heading out for the day.

This home is situated on a corner plot with a gravel drive for at least three cars, an electric charging point and bike/bin store. Access to the garden is on both sides of the house with two side gates and access to a storage shed.
