OWNER INSIGHT
"This home has been completely transformed over the past year. Last August, I began a full renovation, everything from the kitchen and bathrooms to the flooring, carpets, and en-suite in the master bedroom is brand new. The house feels modern, fresh, and ready to move straight into. The master bedroom is spacious with its own en-suite, complemented by a second double room and a cosy single that’s ideal as an office or nursery. The lounge is bright and spacious, featuring a newly built media wall designed for a wall-mounted TV. There’s also a large dining room with an elegant antique fireplace that adds warmth and character to the home. The décor is neutral throughout, and the garden has been cleaned and tidied for low-maintenance outdoor living. It’s a stylish, comfortable home that’s ready for its next chapter."
