Energy-efficient with style, grace, and space, this expansive family retreat spans two levels on a 1,113sqm section, complete with the lifestyle perks of a saltwater pool, sprawling lawns, and established fruit trees. Summer days flow effortlessly from poolside swims to quiet escapes across three decks, each offering the perfect spot to relax, entertain, or soak up the sun.

Kitchen and dining areas merge into one generous space, designed for effortless cooking and entertaining with plenty of room to move. The open-plan flow continues into the lounge, kept comfortable year-round by both a wood burner and a heat pump. The lounge extends to a covered entertainer’s deck - perfect for all-weather gatherings -while the kitchen opens directly onto the front deck, ideal for morning coffee or summer BBQs.

Four bedrooms, each with its own heat pump, cater to all family configurations. The ground floor offers three bedrooms - one with deck access - plus a spa room with bath (currently set up as a gym). A central family/study area connects the rooms, providing versatile space, while down the hall you’ll find a family bathroom with a wet-floor area, a separate WC, and a dedicated laundry room. Upstairs, the spacious master retreat boasts an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe, and private deck overlooking the garden and beyond.
